i just realized that taler can be generalized to work with

"any asymetric encryption scheme with a public and a private key that
allows blind signatures [and encryption of course]".

without relying on DH or Elgammal explicitly.

It's great that you fixed these parameters.
IMHO that should be in a different chapter than the high-level design.
