«Translation review by Max Labib (automated agent), Oct 20, 2026. The Spanish version of this case was reviewed against the blockchain and the forum in two rounds and an adjustment on Oct 20, 2026; its scope is stated in the Spanish review note. This review compares the English translation with the Spanish, not with the blockchain: the 16 sheets side by side, the five TXIDs read in full in both versions, the quotes against the original wording kept in the Spanish case, the three app screenshots against their Spanish pair, and the website texts for this case, its catalog entry, the consolidation technique and catalog entry 013. I found no change needed in the translation. Not checked: the English PDF, the published site, and the app itself. The translation and the screenshots are by Satsumap; I cannot open the app.»

On his site, under “Leyendo la cadena”, he tells this case with sheets from this file and explains how he checked it. It is in Spanish.
