+  \item Competitive features (age-restrictions, p2p payments, etc.)
+  \item Enhanced monetary policy options (friendly for central banks)
+  \item Increased resilience (full-stack replacement)
+  \item Internationally usable (including unbanked or tourists)
+  \item Low-cost and thus environmentally friendly
+  \item Free Software provides provider-neutral infrastructure
+  \item Compliant with regulation (AML, KYC, CFT) as privacy is one-sided and 
payments remain intermediated
+  \item Non-core components to be operated by private entities
+  \item Protocol is an open standard with freely available reference 
implementations
+  \item Possibility to limit amounts withdrawn by non-residents

implementation

+  \item Setup minimal merchant, run test transactions $\Rightarrow$ 
Integration test
+  \item Document and verify procedures (setup, maintenance, disaster recovery)
+  \item Database synchronization setup with auditor ($\Rightarrow$ generate 
audit reports)
+  \item Test KYC integration {\bf (*)}
+  \item Test system upgrade procedure {\bf (*)}
+  \item Test system termination (out-of-business) procedure {\bf (*)}

+
+
+\begin{frame}{Beta: invitation-only}
+Technical tasks in Beta phase:
+\begin{itemize}
+  \item Onboard first merchant(s) with limited reach
+  \item Develop customer support procedures
+  \item Security audit of operational security
+  \item Integrate system monitoring (load, disk capacity, etc.)
+  \item Verify deployment is {\bf reproducibly deterministic}
