I still hope GNU taler will be more widely used. It's basically everything you are looking for.
GNU Taler
That looks cool but the issue would be getting merchants to implement it
Yes I think that's the biggest issue and currently also the focus of a project called NGI Taler. Let's see what comes out. Fingers crossed as this would be great for everyone.
Has Taler moved beyond proof of concept yet?
It's an amazing concept btw. I read through their paper presented to the European banking system, it was interesting.
Looks great
