Anthropic Claude and Google Gemini bypass page protected by (static!) paywall based on GNU Taler by paying with GNU Taler command-line wallet within seconds. No MCP required (but could likely improve speed and reduce token usage in the future). Let's protect the Web against AI bots with micropayments and make AI pay, it clearly can! (05/12/2026 17:45:45)

NymVPN accepts Taler payments: "Today’s dominant systems – credit cards, fintech apps, and even most crypto solutions – are built around data extraction. Every transaction leaves a trail: who paid, who received, when, where, and often why. This financial metadata is highly sensitive, yet it is routinely exposed to banks, intermediaries, and third parties. GNU Taler offers a fundamentally different approach: a digital cash protected against surveillance. This is why Nym is excited to offer Taler payments for NymVPN to expand its private-payments infrastructure." -- https://nym.com/fr/blog/taler (03/23/2026 12:52:42)

Fernando Navarrete (European Parliament) recently published another extremely well-written paper on the need for a Digital Euro for which he is the rapporteur (!). He is unaware of the technical difficulties with the offline proposal of the ECB, but other than that the paper is very much on point. (09/19/2025 10:53:19)
