It's not a currency - just a new payment system, but I don't know how it works exactly. In order to make payments with it, your bank has to support it. Some banks are working on integrating it now. It's supposed to be anonymous and the transaction history is supposed to be private. Currently only cryptocurrency has such features, but it looks like Taler will change that.
