-Taler is an open source system based on a wallet and a central exchange. It 
provides instant one-click payments, can offer payer anonymity with receiver 
transparency for tax purposes. It is fast and cheap, and can hence also cover 
micro-payments economically (payments of the order of 1 cents).

+The USPs of Taler are:
 
 \begin{itemize}
 \item All operations provide cryptographically secured, with mathematical
       proofs for courts and auditors
-\item Customer can remain anonymous, as with cash if desired
+\item Customer payments are privacy preserving, like cash if desired
 \item Merchants are identifiable in each payment they receive
 \item Payments are in existing currencies
-\item Fraud is mostly eliminated, especially compared to credit cards
-\item Scalable, fast protocol implementation 
+\item Payment fraud is eliminated, short of catastrophic failures in 
cryptographic primitives
+\item Linear scalability
 \item Suitable for micro-payments due to very low transaction costs
 \item Ease of use (one-click, instant)
-\item Open standard protocol without patents, with free reference 
implementations
