GNU Taller is pretty fragile, though. One bank issues unbacked tokens and the credibility of the whole system goes down the drain. It's the current financial system, just rebranded. Also, it promotes taxation which automatically makes it a cult & scam.
The fuck? How does Taler "promote taxation?"
Fuckin' Libertarians.
Exactly like Tether. USDT was never backed 1:1 by USD. They don't even try to deny it anymore. They admit it's backed by "various assets, including BTC", which smells like a market manipulation.
"Customers can stay anonymous, but merchants can not hide their income through payments with GNU Taler. This helps to avoid tax evasion and money laundering."
Thank you for being honest about being pro-tax-evasion and pro-money-laundering.
