There is an experienced translator offering to help us with Arabic translations

https://forum.getmonero.org/6/ideas/327/website-and-core-translations?page=&noscroll=1#post-1421

This seems like a good thing for the Monero community. Worldwide adoption requires translation into many languages

so first it needs to be an Open Task, which I've done here

https://forum.getmonero.org/7/open-tasks/339/task-arabic-translations

now the dude needs to pitch in that thread (just copy and paste).

Then we all need to go "yay" (if we think his work is good) and then it moves to the funding thread.

not really the best publicity for monero, but what to do Roll Eyes

regarding price, dont know if we can go up yet, still feels weak to me. a new tagged release has to be released soon, its about time i guess:)
very happy to see the funding platform working and the money coming in, very good! lets not always talk about price, yes an anon currency is being developed, but its also just a piece of software. focus should stay on developement, database and minimum mixing for the win, you all know it.

many seem to think the same: https://forum.getmonero.org/8/funding-required/334/fund-a-developer-moneromoo-will-work-part-time-on-monero-for-260-hours-over-approx-6-months

good job devs, i like the funding system a lot!


I like the funding system too.

Would it be wise to start a new thread on Bitcointalk seeking coders, translators, PR experts to submit funding proposals?  I think that there are many skilled people who would like to join a great team and earn some income but may not yet be aware of Monero.

The funding system can be used to attract talented people outside of the current Monero community. What do you think?

I agree, but I think we should let it grow organically. I think in the beginning we are all gung ho to fund development, so we might not fully scrutinize people pitching their talents. Luckily, as it stands, its mostly internal or those that know about Monero to begin with (so they are believers and they won't just try to scam us).


Hi. I'm the Arabic translator mentioned above and I'm glad to meet you. I've been asked by the member XMRChina to submit a reply here to introduce myself. Anything you want to know about my offer can now be seen on the Arabic translation open task.

Bumping this! In addition, even if you don't have an account on the official forum you are able to contribute, just press the contribute button and it will explain how to donate (so in essence you are able to donate anonymously).

We're currently at 5,314.50 / 7,800.00 XMR (68.13%)
This is a great cause.  I'd post there but waiting for my forgot pw email.  200 sent.

So its important that the community establish its own identity outside bitcointalk.

The best way to do that is to participate on other venues, especially getmonero.org but also reddit, etc. There are great things happening there, notably the crowdfunding feature that now helping the project in multiple ways (including direct funding for development)

Perhaps you are asking for a ban on Monero participants posting on bitcointalk.org at all. I believe that would be inappropriate.



That's absolutely not what I meant, people should be able to use bitcointalk to talk about Monero but here we will be tagged as just another altcoin, unless you are really into crypto and can see how Monero distinguishes itself. So its important that the community establish its own identity outside bitcointalk  Smiley

Crypto is the separation of Power and State.
We are moved out of bitcointalk. The main forum for the project is forum.getmonero.org. bitcointalk is a secondary social venue along with reddit, twitter, etc.

The main forums for the project are IRC and bitcointalk.

Although I appreciate the 'build it and they will come' optimism, forum.getmonero.org for now is (like monerotalk before it) mostly a vanity project and potential btct backup.

We simply do not yet have the critical mass needed to avoid making our coin-specific forum anything but an insular self-preaching choir at best or ghost town at worst.

Of course its crowdfunding function brings new utility...but still...Jesus walked among the sinners...  Cool

please vote and share your opinion about Monero marketing:

old Monero-has-no-GUI-so-we-halt-marketing meme is old since mymonero.com got released, the time for marketing is now. After Monero takes off and breaks the $50 mark the ship will have sailed.

also its time we move out of bitcointalk.

OK, we'll put you down for Option One.

As for moving out of bitcointalk, let's recognize that XMR has done very well, whether in spite of or thanks to being based on this forum (which finally relented and granted altcoins their own subs, because Satoshi loves his grandchildren too).

If/when XMR gains critical mass, spontaneous migration to other forums will happen naturally.

When you push and push and push for it to happen Right Now and Faster, Please you (and by extension, our community) look like a try-hard and an ingrate.

Good point. Prior comments about the high learning curve for new programmers to become familiar with the Monero codebase are also valid.

I still give the community a lot of credit. I think they will do a good job in only giving large funding amounts to reputable people.

I think the Monero community is smarter than most and is unlikely to be scammed easily.

Yes, I've seen this response before.

Hey, Anywhere I can use paypal to buy? I don't care if I have to wait however long it takes to be UN-reversable. I don't want to give them my banking info. They used to just credit my card now they want more info so instead of giving it to them I'd rather just buy Monero with it. I refused to do the verification years ago and I'm not going to now.

Wonder if we can get Fleabay to pay out in XMR or at least BTC?

How much are we talking about here?

Edit: I only ask because I might be interested; you can PM me if you want to discuss.

Not much, PM'd
