Hello, FireLotto community!

This is very exciting for all of us here at FireLotto and we wanted to share this news with our community immediately.

We have reached another milestone per our roadmap to share with you. FireLotto has been translated to 13 languages as of today. The key language for FireLotto is English. But by using 13 more localized versions of our service we can increase the participation by attracting players who do not speak English.

Which languages have been chosen?

When we made the selection we analyzed our key markets. And the key ones are those where we are planning to work and those where we have more money. Having analyzed more than 300 markets, I can highlight the TOP-5 main languages to date:

TOP-5 ICO languages:

  1. English — 100%
  2. Russian — 42%
  3. Chinese — 38%
  4. Japanese — 24%
  5. Korean — 22%

· English — as the language of international communication.

· Russian — it’s here not because we are Russians, the reason is that the blockchain community in Russia is really huge and growing rapidly.

· Chinese — despite the ICO banning in China (September 4, 2017), interest in the blockchain projects remains high. Moreover, the ban is related to the organization of ICO in China, but it does not prohibit Chinese people to play in foreign blockchain lottery.

· Japanese — Japan is the first country that recognized crypto currencies (including bitcoin) as a payment means, this caused an increasing interest.

· Korean — such a high popularity of crypto currencies in South Korea is connected with geopolitical and cultural factors.

We use Crowdin to introduce multi-language support for Korean, Chinese, Russian, Thai, Indonesian, Philippines, and Japanese. Up to 10 languages in total. The FireLotto lottery player community is global and more languages will be supported in the future.

How many languages are needed?

The much, the better. It all depends on our goals and opportunities. In our opinion, 10 (+/- 2) languages to start is enough. Language translations can be made by the CrowdIn program.

We are launching an open platform for localization now at this link: https://crowdin.com/project/firelotto

Anyone who notices any incorrect translation or mistyping have an option to propose her own suggestion.

As cryptocurrency continues to expand all over the globe, new questions rise on the potential of the blockchain. Thus, such innovative service as FireLotto is introduced. FireLotto is a fully decentralized lottery platform built on Ethereum smart contracts. FireLotto is going to be the most honest lottery thanks to the fact that winning numbers are going to be chosen by RNG based on blockchain technology Bitcoin, so there is no possibility to fake the results. Moreover, all lottery parameters are in open source, they are accessible and fully transparent 24/7. What is even more important decentralized this platform provides full autonomy and independence.

Addition of the token to quoting lists will result into multiple positive effects such as improved liquidity of the token, extra attention to the project and further fueling of FireLotto active community that together will contribute to the platform marketing efforts on rapidly developing Asian markets.

Thank you all for your support and patience!
