Would someone that speaks Italian be so kind as to translate starting at 48:00?  I could get this done professionally, but it would be nice to have person familiar with Bitcoin terminology do it.

Thank you!



Sorry, it would be quite lengthy to translate all of it, but I honestly don't think it's really worth the effort... I don't know anything about cryptoart and that video doesn't help much: here is the part where they supposedly explain what cryptoart is:

"In cryptoart, art [...] turns into money. Thanks to a digital code [tag?] located on the painting, which can interact with smartphones and tablets, it is possible to load onto the artwork cash money in the form of virtual currency. As with crowdfunding, whoever puts the money into it is no exclusive owner of the artwork, yet they get a nice and secure place where nobody con steal it."

Does that make sense to you? I can't figure out how that would differ from simply attaching a bitcoin address tag onto a painting. I really can't get the point of the whole thing.

Rai (Italy's national public broadcasting company, owned by the Ministry of Economy and Finance) is covering Bitcoin and Cryptoart in a documentary that is being run through Wednesday.

I would love to have an english translation. Coverage starts at 48:00.
