+\begin{frame}{What is Taler?}
+ \framesubtitle{\url{https://taler.net/en/features.html}} \noindent
+Taler is
+ \vfill
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item a Free/Libre software \emph{payment system} infrastructure project
+ \item ... with a surrounding software ecosystem
+ \item ... and a company (Taler Systems S.A.) and community that wants to
deploy it
+ as widely as possible.
+ \end{itemize}
+ \vfill
+\noindent
+ However, Taler is
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item \emph{not} a currency
+ \item \emph{not} a long-term store of value
+ \item \emph{not} a network or instance of a system
+ \item \emph{not} decentralized
+% \item \emph{not} based on proof-of-work or proof-of-stake
+ \item combinable with a DLT back-end if requested
+ \end{itemize}
+\end{frame}
+
+
+\begin{frame}{Design principles}
+ \framesubtitle{https://taler.net/en/principles.html}
+GNU Taler must ...
+\begin{enumerate}
+ \item {... be implemented as {\bf free software} (but {\em available} under
a commercial license).}
+ \item {... protect the {\bf privacy of buyers}.}
+ \item {... must enable the state to {\bf tax income} and crack down on
+ illegal business activities.}
+ \item {... prevent payment fraud.}
+ \item {... only {\bf disclose the minimal amount of information
+ necessary}.}
+ \item {... be usable.}
+ \item {... be efficient.}
+ \item {... avoid single points of failure.}
+ \item {... foster {\bf competition} in associated services.}

+\begin{itemize}
+\item {\bf Convenient:} pay with one click instantly --– in Euro,
+Dollar, Yen or Bitcoin
+\item {\bf Friction-free security:} Payments do not require sign-up,

+\item {\bf Privacy-preserving:} payment requires/shares no personal information
+\item {\bf Bank account:} not required
+\end{itemize}

+
+\begin{frame}{Merchant Impact of Taler}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item {\bf Instant clearance:} one-click transactions and instant clearance at
par
+\item {\bf Easy \& compliant:} GDPR \& PCI-DSS compliance-free and without any
effort
+\item {\bf Major profit increase:} efficient protocol $+$ no fraud $=$
extremely low costs
+\item {\bf 1-click checkout:} without Amazon and without false

\framesubtitle{\url{https://www.snb.ch/en/mmr/papers/id/working_paper_2021_03}}
+ \begin{itemize}
+ \item Central bank issues digital coins equivalent to issuing cash \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ monetary policy remains under CB control
+ \item Architecture with consumer accounts at commercial banks \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ no competition for commercial banking (S\&L) \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ CB does not have to manage KYC, customer support
+ \item Withdrawal limits and denomination expiration \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ protects against bank runs and hoarding
+ \item Income transparency and possibility to set fees \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ additional insights into economy and new policy options
+ \item Revocation protocols and loss limitations \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ exit strategy and handles catastrophic security
incidents
+ \item Privacy by cryptographic design not organizational compliance \\
+ $\Rightarrow$ CB cannot be forced to facilitate mass-surveillance
