   Working on translation, I found these translations introduced in #79, that are unnecessary (assuming the universal nature of the “BTC” string).

   ACK 19d51a2907cc00244510460a658c482d1b4bdfda

   Tested that these are all the occurrences in this file, and cross-checked for any occurrences in other files. We already set the notr attribute in other areas of the code such as coincontroldialog.ui, overviewpage.ui, and sendcoinsdialog.ui.

   Furthermore, BTC is treated as a symbol or unit of Bitcoin and is untranslatable by nature.

    Is it really untranslated? What about languages that don’t use the Latin alphabet at all?

    For example? (not non-Latin languages, but abbreviated name “BTC” in non-Latin languages)

    My three non-Latin languages use “BTC”, btw.

    I would expect Russian to use a Cyrillic abbreviation? Possibly Chinese and Japanese to get single-character units at some point?

    I’ve made a quick re-check of some multi-language online services. All of them use “BTC” in non-Latin languages.
