So with an extimated floor of 10 cents per onion the bounty for translation of the ANN would now be around 20$ for a one or two days of work (I've already worked an entire day and I've not finished yet). Even though this is an amazing project full of potential, I think the bounty program is the weak point right now.
Yeah, it´s like saying uuuh who would do a bounty for ETH it´s only 10 cents right now. (few years ago)
Well you get another 100 Onions every month.
Who knows, this coin might reach 1$ each soon. Then, all the work we've done as translators would have paid off. You are all missing the point. IF the CURRENT price of DeepOnion would already be known, everyone would have a very clear idea of what to do with their time and mining resources. We are now in the very interesting phase BEFORE price discovery, so we act only based on our speculations. IF you work for bounties now you do it either because you just like to do it or because you believe the price discovery will discover a price high enough to pay for your work. It's a bet, you can win (discovered price is higher of the value of your work), you can be even (discovered price is the same of the value of your work) or yuu can lose (discovered price is the lower of the value of your work). If - let's say - you would know TODAY that the coin is worth only 0.02$ (very pessimistic view), and you absolutely wanted to have 200 onions in your bag, what would you do?
1. Buy them for 4$ on an exchange?
2. Work all day and more to translate the ANN? (and hope that the value will grow on time)
If you still don't get it I give you a third option:
3. Work on some other better paid translation, earn 100$ with that, and spend the earned 100$ to buy 6000 onions - (and perhaps still hope that the value will grow on time)
