     24               This project is about bringing GNU Taler to market across Europe,
     25               making sure it is made legally available to users in the EU via
     26               retail banks, accepted as a payment solution by European retailers,
     27               technically mature and known to the general public.

     71               This project is about improving the usability of GNU Taler for
     72               regional currencies. It improves account management in libeufin
     73               to turn it into a comprehensive stand-alone bank service. We
     74               are also adding currency conversion to enable users to convert
     75               from and to the regional currency. Furthermore, some time was
     76               spent on requirements analysis, revealing the need for merchants
     77               without digital infrastructure to receive payments, resulting in
     78               us implementing templating support that enables payments to
     79               merchants that are fully offline.

     87               This project is about adding KYC and AML support to GNU Taler by
     88               integrating rules for conditions that require users to authenticate
     89               or exchange operators to review records for AML.  We will be integrating
     90               support for KYC via the open OAuth2.0 standard as well as a few
     91               (sadly) proprietary APIs to enable compliance. We will also be
     92               implementing a (simple) address verification service using the
     93               OAuth 2.0 API.

    101               This project is about implementing a GNU Taler wallet for the

    111               We received funding under NGI POINTER to add P2P payments and
    112               make GNU Taler more programmable.  P2P payments allow wallets
    113               to request payments (invoicing) and to offer digital cash
    114               directly to other wallets. We also implemented age-restricted
    115               payments that allow merchants to validate the age of buyers
    116               without disclosing additional information. Finally, we
    117               created an early prototype for auctions (but without full
    118               integration across all GNU Taler components).

    137             This project has received funding from the European Union’s Horizon
    138             2020 research and innovation programme under the NGI_TRUST grant
    139             agreement no 825618.
    140             The project aims to integrate re:claimID with the GNU Taler payment
    141             system in a pilot in order to demonstrate the practical feasibility
    142             and benefits of privacy enhancing technologies for users and
    143             commercial service providers. The project is called "Decentralized
    144             Identities for Self-Sovereign End-users" (DISSENS).
