The Whitepaper is outdated.

More generally, there is not an easy path for discovery of non-English versions of RChain documents. The main links to the whitepaper are https://developer.rchain.coop/faq and https://github.com/rchain/reference/blob/master/faq.md

Why Greek? At least 51% of Greeks speak English. What are the criteria for choosing content to translate and into which languages (translation strategy)?

@ian-bloom I didn't know it was outdated.

I am sure 51% of Greeks speak English, albeit not very good English.

I'll close this.
