Thing most miss about Taler when comparing to Were or Blik:

You can download Taler app, open it, withdraw money from ATM or a friend, without logging in, without even having a bank account or app provided by a bank. Tokens in the Taler wallet are decoupled from current system and cannot be taken away without shutting whole system down. It is the closest to digital cash we have that does not depend on blockchains.
