Perhaps it could be a good idea to put a good german description under the media info on the first  "[ANN]" page I have found here:

https://www.krypto-magazin.de/was-ist-cryptonite-coin/
This article may be unique in that it's a German description in an "independent" magazine, but it contains some pretty severe errors:
- According to the article, Cryptonite was distributed via an ICO, and afaik there was not even a pre-mine
- "Unmalleable transactions" are translated into "transactions being vulnerable to malware" by the article, which afaik is wrong - malware normally operates on the victim's computer, while in malleabillity attacks an attacker creates duplicate transactions with a custom software.

In short, it looks like a really bad translation of Cryptonite's key concepts.

I have started a little German description here: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2822792.new#new



Thanks for Your hints/explanations: Now for the first time I understand what means "Unmalleable transactions"!
