Bitcoin and internationalization (i18n)

Bitcoin is a global currency. Support for internationalization and localization follows:

Bitcoin.org

The homepage the Bitcoin project website has many translations.

Bitcoin.it Wiki

The multi-lingual scheme for this Wiki is described on Bitcoin.it Wiki.

Bitcoin client

The original bitcoin client software supports ten languages, as-of version 0.3.20[1]

Windows

When the program runs, it looks in the directory of the EXE for the file: 

 locale\<langcode>\LC_MESSAGES\bitcoin.mo

<langcode> is the two letter code of the language your OS is set to, like "de" or "nl".

Linux

The software looks for:

  • /usr/share/locale/<langcode>/LC_MESSAGES/bitcoin.mo
  • /usr/local/share/locale/<langcode>/LC_MESSAGES/bitcoin.mo
