When you are a newbie and maybe hungry, then $5 per 1000 words can be justified. Otherwise experienced translators can't work for $5. It takes lot of time and efforts to translate efficiently. I charge no less than $25 per 1000 words on Upwork. Because quality matters and good translation is no less than good writing. And I am from India, which is known for price competition.
 
$50+ rates are justified for crypto related translations as it is not a general translation but somewhat technical. You need to convey the message in a way that native speakers can understand it and can relate to it, which is called localization.

So basically, a good translation requires skills and $5 is not worth the efforts for quality translators.   
Mate, don't brag because you are a 5 star freelancer

Let him try, you don't know how it will turn out

Absolutely right....I am an experienced native translator for the german language and I wouldn't work for $10/1000 words....if he/she is working with the help of google translator, shame on him/her and then even $1 ia way too much!

Those are unbelievably low rates. I suspect that you are just using Google translate for your services. Because genuine translators are charging anywhere from $50 to $100 per 1000 words translations. Can you provide me the Hindi translations that you have done? I can verify if they are machine translated or human translated.

Still these rates are twice as higher as those proposed by translation agencies in the respective countries.
For example, in my country they would do the same translation from Russian (with no Google translate, of course) for $5 per 1,000 words.
I am just wondering what services/agencies did you use that charged you $50/1,000???
