Project Details
Project name: Steem White Paper (Genesis)
Crowdin link: https://crowdin.com/project/steem-whitepaper-genesis
Description:
Steem White Paper (Genesis) is the original White Paper from March 2016 that outlines the vision and mission of Steem. It also explains the technical aspects of the STEEM blockchain and gives a great overview of its workings and principles behind it. Many questions that the new and more experienced users are asking can be found in this resourceful document.
STEEM is the best blockchain-based social media platform out there, that's why this is a must read for each and every Steem enthusiast!
Contribution Specifications
Motivation: This is my third translation project under the Steem blockchain based Utopian.io + DaVinci Witness Translation incentive. However, this translation project seems to be even more important one!
Since the Slovenian Steem community is progressively growing and expanding, I feel an urge to help the new users more easily explore the possibilities of this great platform. Although Steem Whitepaper is not one of the easier translation projects out there, I am more than willing to accept this challenge and produce an easy to read and natural translation without sacrificing the technical accuracy.
Furthermore, this project is a win-win combination. While the translation will surely benefit the Slovenian Steem audience in general, it will also benefit me. I have a great desire to learn even more about the Steem and what better opportunity could present than to research the matter thoroughly and translate it into my native language.
The whole project consists of 16214 words and this is the 8th part in the series. With this contribution I have passed 50% of the Steem White Paper translation into Slovenian!
Specifics of This Milestone Contribution
For this specific contribution (part 8) I had to to study more about the Steem's unique mining algorithm, botnet resistancy, mining pool resistancy and about the highly interesting concept of elimination of transaction fees (unlike other platform like BitShares, Nxt, Ripple, Counter Party, Stellar and even Etherium).
In this contribution it is also explained why micropayments don't work and the rationale behind the Steem's better approach.
I just cannot wait to translate the whole Steem White Paper into Slovenian so that others in the growing and lively community can benefit from better understanding the underlying concepts and visions of the superior Steem blockchain technology.
