Project details:
Hello everyone, In the last couple of years crypto assets had gotten a good reputation. Especially for being decentralized.
But for your typical investor, finding a perfect exchange is harder than you think. A lot of the big names out there are centralized exchanges. Such exchanges got a lot of drawbacks.
First for those exchanges. You won't get your private key. Meaning you could lose your money if the exchange closes either forced by the government, hacked or even if the owners themselves designed the exchange as a scam in the first place. Therefore losing the first and foremost property of crypto - being decentralized.
Secondly, for these exchanges to obey the rules set by the law, they must put a lot of restrictions on the user thus limiting the investor's freedom.
So what is Volentix? and how can it benefit the crypto word? Volentix is an ecosystem built around four pillars, Venue, Verto, Vespucci, and VDex.
- Vdex is a powerful DECENTRALIZED DIGITAL ASSETS EXCHANGE.
- VENUE is a community and bounties platform where new members are recruited and where VOLENTIX digital asset (VTX) is distributed.
- VERTO is a local multi-currency wallet. PS. You will get your own private key :) Browser wallet.
- VESPUCCI is an interface where you could analyze and check all the data related to digital asset.
I also made this introduction into a short video:
Why did I choose this project ?
First, I have always been interested in cryptocurrency. Second, I intend to use the platform and It would be great to contribute to the development of the project. Finally, because my previous project was also tech related and I want to stay in the same "niche".
Contribution Specifications:
First of all, I've decided to make my own glossary to keep track of the project smoothly, Here's the primary list of words:
| English | العربية | English | العربية |
|---|---|---|---|
| Exchange | مبادل | Blockchain | سلسلة الكتل |
| Trading | تداول | Authentication | الإستيثاق |
| Assets | الأصول | Platform | منصة |
| Platform | منصة | Transaction | معاملة |
| Engine | محرك | Sidechain | سلسلة جانبية |
| Peer-to-peer | النظير إلى النظير |
Before going to more details:
Venue is a community platform which means 'منصة' in Arabic so I will consider it as a feminine noun from here and on.
VDex is also a platform but this time for exchanging digital assets so it will be used as a feminine noun as well.
Verto is the digital wallet of the platform, a wallet in Arabic is 'محفظة' so It will be used as a feminine noun.
Vespucci is an analytics engine, in Arabic an engine is 'محرك' which is a masculine noun.
Some strings that need special description:
String - In this string I came across "Asset"
'An asset is defined as anything owned or controlled by a business, tangible or intangible, that has monetary value and was acquired at a measurable cost.'
We could pick the word 'الممتلكات' but it's more likely related to a physical property, for digital assets, the word 'الأصول ' sounds more suitable.
String -In this example, governance means managing the data and operations on the platform, so 'لإدارة' is the best choice.
String -Atomic swap is a new concept in crypto world, it means transferring an amount of cryptocurrency from one wallet to another (without any third party), its mechanism is really complex and we need a blockchain expert to explain it properly. The concept is obviously new for the Arabic language, to keep some authenticity, I've decided to translate it word to word aka ' ذرية مقايضة'.
String - Sentiment analysis is analyzing the tendency of traders to buy or sell an asset in real-time market, 'تحليل نزعة السوق' is the best choice for me.
String - This string caused some problems for a couple of reasons, first of all let's understand some concepts:
According to Wikipedia, rule-based systems are used as a way to store and manipulate knowledge to interpret information in a useful way. They are often used in artificial intelligence applications and research. The execution of such systems is called rule-based execution.
A namespace is a set of symbols that are used to organize objects of various kinds, so that these objects may be referred to by name.
There's no specific translation in Arabic for rule-based, So I chose ' القائم على قاعدة' , as for namespace and filesystem, they are untranslatable.
String - In operating systems, 'allocation' is the process of reserving memory for use by a program. This is why I've decided to use 'تخصيص' which means in Arabic, making something specific, more suitable.
String - A database shard is a horizontal partition of data in a database. There can be various definitions of this term in Arabic, my best alternative is 'قسم'.
Contribution information:

Total words = 1338
Untranslatable words and repeated strings ≈ 87
