+## Simple Summary
+To help with promoting Augur, we should fund translation of [Ben Davidow's Ultimate Guide to Augur](https://www.augur.net/blog/prediction-markets/) to the Spanish language.
+
+## Abstract
+A large portion of the world speaks Spanish as a native language. It would be beneficial to translate the Ultimate Guide to Augur. This translation could be circulated to various blogs, and possibly hosted by Augur.net.
+
+## Motivation
+At the moment, the Forecast Foundation is focused on V2 development efforts. A large re-write of materials is likely not a good use of
+their resources. This particular project would likely help expose Spanish speaking countries in Latin America and Europe to Prediction
+Market Technologies, as well as improve the volume, and price, of Augur.
+
+## Definition  of Done
+
+* Produce a Markdown file in the OracleDAO repo with a spanish translation of the Ultimate Guide.
+* The translation should include image tags at appropriate locations matching the English Ultimate Guide.
+* The translation should be available for the Forecast Foundation to add to the augur.net website.
+
+## Specification
+1. Translate the Ultimate Guide into Spanish.
+2. The translation should be generally accessible to most Spanish speakers using common language.
+3. The translation should be signed off ok from a Spanish speaking Member, or a group of people Members can trust.
+4. The translation should be added as a pull request into the OracleDAO's Github repository for the public to fork and pull.
+
+## Rationale
+
+#### Why select this blog post to translate?
+
+The Ultimate Guide is a good general introduction to Augur and Prediction Markets, highlighting motivations for using Prediction Markets
+as a public good. It also showcases an example of a binary market which could be a good introduction for newcomers to the Prediction Market
+space.
+
+#### Should we specify a specific version of Spanish?
+
+At the time of writing, I don't have a good answer to this. I am not familiar with Spanish dialects, but I do know they exist. It is important
+to write a version of Spanish that may be accessible to the most users.
+
+## Costs
+
+The Ultimate guide has roughly 3,400 words. Quick estimates show professional translation charges $0.12USD per word. This prices this task
+at roughly $408.48. Implementers of this task should receive OracleDAO tokens equivalent to ◈500 at the time of completion, to
+account for follow up work and delivery.
+
+## Risks
+
+#### Legal
+
+There is a possibility this could be seen as advertising betting markets from certain jurisdictions. Is the Howey Test relevant here?
+
+
+
+#### Completion
+
+Without a member of the DAO that isn't Spanish speaking, it could be
+difficult to validate correctness of the translation.
