In the next weeks (or months) i will dive into hosting #Taler #NGITaler #GNUTaler backend and merchant kiosk etc.

Since most of the documentation refers to #Debian, which is fine, but cumbersome to set up/keep up to date, i want to #Nix|ify it.
Is anybody interested in collaborating on this?

Would be awesome to break it down to several config attributes and have the rest automagically.

Translation:
"The launch is expected to take place in 2026. Delays are, of course, possible."

4 months ago on #ngitaler forum they said: "Some activities have taken more time than expected, forcing us to delay the public beta."

What those activities could be? 🤔 Which causes postponement of launch and prevents adoption.

@heiseonline "Die Studien-Autoren aus den PwC-Standorten München und Mailand betonen zudem, dass die Einführung des digitalen Euro fast die Hälfte der verfügbaren Fachkräfte über Jahre binden werde. Durch den Personalengpass könnten Innovationen im Zahlungsverkehr blockiert werden." 🤦😱 🤯

Ihr Nasen! Der #digitaleEuro #GNUTaler #NGITaler @NGI_Taler ist DIE (!) Innovation im Zahlungsverkehr!

Sind da wieder irgendwelche Lobbyisten am Werk, die in Wirklichkeit Angst vor Zentralbankgeld haben? Die lieber an alten, "bewährten" Machtpositionen und Einnahmequellen festhalten wollen?

„Wenn es um das Zahlungssystem geht, das 400 Millionen Menschen nutzen sollen, sollte die Anonymität nicht nur von einer Absichtserklärung abhängen, sondern auch technisch garantiert sein. Das Taler-System würde Anonymität auch dann gewährleisten, wenn sich politische Strömungen durchsetzten, die die Anonymität der Zahlungen aufheben wollen.”

@NGI_Taler, reading about the "digital Euro" thingie, where does the #GNUTaler fit in all that?

I get one is an "actual coin" and the other is a payment system.

Do they compliment each other? Or is the digital Euro to build a different, exclusive system?

Thank you very much for your work. ❤️

Richtig ist, daß die Anbindung von Exchanges bzw. Finanzdienstleistungen an das SEPA-System der BAFIN unterliegt.

Und dafür wird der #GNUtaler (Software) z.B. sehr aktuell zum #NGItaler (Implementierung) z.B. bei der GLS-Bank:
https://www.gls.de/gls-bank/aktuelles/presse/ngi-taler/

Richtig ist aber auch, daß die Nutzung der Software für Zahlungsysteme im Rahmen geschlossener Benutzergruppen (Regios, Events, Gamification usw.) *nicht* der BAFIN unterliegt.
Und das machen wir:

My proposal for integrating #GNUTaler with #Tryton/#GNUHealth was accepted by #NGITaler. 💯 🎉

I will develop a Tryton module which would allows users to integrate payments with Taler into their webshops, businesses.

Tryton is a popular libre business management system written in Python, used for operating webshops and enterprise resource planning - there are many modules for financial accounting, sales, inventory and stock, CRM, shipping, subscription management, etc. Existing payment provider integrations within Tryton are limited to specific proprietary payment providers, having a Taler based option would allow organisations to deal with Taler based payments (incoming as well as outgoing).

This includes the users of GNU Health (which is built on Tryton) and which provides libre alternatives for Hospital Management software, Health Information Systems and Electronic Health Records.
