Is it possible to receive devcoins for translations into French, for example?
Not yet, primarily I think because there aren't enough people to be able to vet/edit any writings not in english. You can offer to translate from french to english, if anybody is interested in taking you up on it:

it there's a lot of texts in English to translate .. and very few texts in other languages!
Community devcoins be more open to the world. DVC not have much interest if it there's only English fluent spoken who can benefit.
I do not think it is difficult to find volunteers to check texts in other languages.
I volunteered for the French. Who do I contact to advance much about this?
Let me make a clear and ardent point, translation is the best purpose for Devtome. American writers will not have a use for it after a few months if it continues at this rate but translators and individuals who speak many languages will.
If it takes 100,000 words to produce 1 Bitcoin then in countries where 1 Bitcoin equals a lot, those 100,000 words are more likely to be produced.
