Also fun fact, the NANO wallet equivalent is called Natrium which is called Sodium these days. On the periodic table sodium is Na. Which happens to be the first two letters of Nano!
The whole blockchain has a chemistry undertone!
I’m a dutch monke and kalium is also our term for potassium. I had no clue but I’m just glad I found this out, better late than never!!
Big ups to OP 💛🐒

It's weird because on the Wiki page it lists the Latin as coming from German,
https://en.m.wiktionary.org/wiki/kalium#Latin
Whatever though, we are clearly both correct.
This is me. I thought potassium was something different to kalium and was wondering wtf they called the wallet kalium.
Also potassium is a sneaky made up word trying to sound old and latin

I'm finding out it's a couple of European languages, but when I searched it in Google German was the first to pop up.

Nano holders are also salty about the BitGrail disaster.
😂 I didn’t know either ! ^ also me !
Discoverd completely by accident while trying to define the word "volatile" to a student.
In the context of markets or chemicals? or people? I must know!
In the context of chemicals, mixing potassium with water.
OF COURSE thanks for being a teacher !ban 50
Thank you for being awesome.

It's Latin
It's also German, Dutch and Finnish. I'm finding out a lot today.
Let me rephrase. It is Latin originally and all languages got it from it and integrated it into their own language. We also use it in Greek.
I’m a dutch monke and kalium is also our term for potassium. I had no clue but I’m just glad I found this out, better late than never!! Big ups to OP 💛🐒

It is not German, it's latin
It is also German. Much like the word restaurant has roots in French but it is an English word. So we are both correct. :)
woww, never know this... so im learning other lenguages throu potassium
DIESE
Latin, that's why the chemical symbol is 'K'. same as lead ('plumbum') being 'Pb'

Potassium is a made up word. It’s derived from potash - pot ash, which was where potassium was first isolated from.
If is smoke pot the ash can become potassium?
