My first project as a Davinci/Utopian translator was translating the Steem Whitepaper. You can read the final post here with links to all the translations I have done within that project. I noticed the Genesis Whitepaper had only been translated 37% of which no strings were yet proofread/confirmed on Crowdin.

The Genesis Whitepaper is interesting since it lays out all the initial thoughts on the Steem Blockchain, with the Whitepaper as I translated it before leaving out some aspects and/or tweaking some points due to gained insights. For me it's interesting to translate the Steem Whitepaper Genesis since the information is still fresh on my mind, meaning I will be able to translate quickly and do a little game of 'spot the differences'. By translating the Whitepaper I will also be reading the Genesis for the first time and I'm curious what I will learn.

I've translated a little over a thousand words. There is a lot of overlap with the 'current' whitepaper, except in the Genesis Whitepaper they add some calculations about how to figure out bandwidth for users on the platform, and how to deal with surges or decreased activity.

This is my third translation of the Genesis Whitepaper, and until now parts of the translated texts were overlapping with my previous translation work, while other parts of the text were new to me. It's great to see the differences between the whitepapers, giving me a bit of insight in the history and development of the Steem Blockchain. It's interesting to see a 'case study' of Bitcoin and an assumed price of Bitcoin as 400$...
