<h2>Security</h2>
- <p>.</p>
+ <p>Taler is the electronic equivalent of cash, except harder to fake.
+ If your digital wallet is lost -- say because
+ your computer is irreparably damaged or compromised -- only the amount of coin
+ stored in your wallet will be lost. Unlike a physical wallet, you can make
+ backups of your digital wallet which can provide security against data loss.
+ So your digital wallet works mostly just like
+ a physical wallet, except online and without the need to manually count coins.</p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>Privacy</h2>
- <p>.</p>
+ <p>Your transactions are private, neither the mint (bank) nor merchant needs to
+ learn your identity. There is no need to give our credit card numbers or
+ other sensitive information, and the merchant will only be able to do
+ exactly the transaction you confirmed using your digital wallet.</p>

<h2>Convenience</h2>
- <p>.</p>
+ <p>You will be able to withdraw digital coins to replenish your wallet using
+ your credit card or SEPA transactions, similar to how you pay or withdraw
+ cash today. </p>
</div>
<div class="col-lg-4">
<h2>Stability </h2>
- <p>.</p>
+ <p>Coins in your digital wallet will be of the same denomination as the
+ cash in your physical wallet. So you will not have to worry about
+ currency fluctuations or conversion rates. Like a physical wallet,
+ you can carry digital coins of different currencies in your digital
+ wallet at the same time.</p>
