Big question is how to translate Unobtanium?
You don't translate it at all. It's a name like John, Marry, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ferrari, Eston Martin, Coca Cola, Mc Donalds, Nike, Alice or Bob. (Brand)Names aren't translated. "Unobtanium" is international name the same all over the world.
I would agree with this. Parenthetically, it could be described as BitcoinNational suggests. (Rare, difficult to acquire mineral, expensive) sort of thing. Further I would think we would emphasize referring to it as "Uno" making it easy to pronounce.
As to the translators wages, the only way I know to contact him is through the upwork.com website I found him on. Daniel is obviously not his name but if someone has contacts at shapeshifter.io, perhaps we can offer a non-cash deal.
As to fundraising:
BitcoinCharlie 10 Uno
BitcoinNational 5 Uno
Gekko 10 Uno
Rough budget only is $150, to be refined once we speak to the translator. First goal is 60 Uno of pledges to reimburse any fiat I must put out. We are almost half way there.
Add 5 from me, but please don't do anything publicly until we have a complete set of stable and Uno-branded wallets; and merge mining working seamlessly.
With you 100% on that. The goal is to get everything technical right and fixed (I am useless on all this techie stuff--but this management of marketing/hype...is what I can do).
Fundraising Pledge Update:
BitcoinCharlie 10 Uno
BitcoinNational 5 Uno
Gekko 10 Uno
SirSmokes 25 Uno
Tertius 5 Uno
Total is 55 Uno out of 60
Awesome. This idea isn't 24 hours old and we have our translation budget pretty much covered and a great candidate for the work ID'd.
Learnminer has been in contact with me and is reviewing my suggested site additions. If anyone thinks I forgot something let me know.
I am also up for rewriting our intro as suggested by BitCoinNational. There is nothing wrong with that Bio from the Kiwi Exchange.
But 30 days is too long. It is not going to take 30 days to fix this techie stuff. I want to be out of the gate in China 48 hours after we are all happy everything works.
Rather than a contest, all scribes throw out your best shot at 100 words I will look at all of it and edit whatever looks good into three different 100 word drafts and we'll vote on the winning draft over 24 hours.
We need it way quicker than 30 days. Let's use the stone soup model to write it.
Somebody give me 5 more UNOs so translation fundraising can be closed.
Thanks.
