wry Posted May 19, 2019 #1 Posted May 19, 2019 I came across an interesting story today that might make for an interesting discussion - it was the history of the Bitcoin logo! Link: https://www.coindesk.com/about-that-orange-b-the-history-of-bitcoins-logos It turns out that the orange and white B logo for Bitcoin wasn't it's first one. Drawing from old BitcoinTalk posts the article traces the history of the logo. Interestingly, Satoshi himself actually wanted a little gold coin with BC in it. He later changed it to the gold coin with the stylized B but some complained that it looked too much like the symbol for the Thai Bhat. Anyway, really interesting. Amazing how these things evolve and then become standardized. Anyway, fun to think about something I had not thought about! Is there a logo that you prefer?
Snike Posted May 19, 2019 #2 Posted May 19, 2019 I love the most recent bitcoin logo, everyone knows that its bitcoin and another aspect is that it's remarkable. You see it somewhere and instantly make that connection to bitcoin in your head. I wanna know who created the logo and how he got it to be THE bitcoin logo. Like the only one everyone knows.
barbaris Posted May 19, 2019 #3 Posted May 19, 2019 It is interesting to read how it was created that later became great and is used by the whole world. I like the 2010 logo orange and white.
ktfor57 Posted May 19, 2019 #4 Posted May 19, 2019 Delighted to read the story of design change of bitcoin logo over the years. The bitcoin price and logo seems to have increased proportionately with the popularity of bitcoin
williamshennie9 Posted May 19, 2019 #5 Posted May 19, 2019 I never even knew bitcoin had an official logo, I always thought the differences were as a result of what people created. I guess you learn something interesting each day! Interesting article to see the progression of the "official" logo

bmg Posted May 19, 2019 #7 Posted May 19, 2019 How ironic I had just looked down at my cell phone right before I came on the forum ( I'm on my pc now) and there was a notification with this same story. Pretty cool to learn things about the history of bitcoin.

rdbase Posted May 21, 2019 #10 Posted May 21, 2019 Thai bhat, really? Satoshi didnt want it connected to a symbol of any world currency so he quickly denied its comparison.😊
Kate Posted May 21, 2019 #11 Posted May 21, 2019 Actually the current logo of Bitcoin is actually the best one , because it is not a much of a very radiant colour but is bright to attract people and isn't a colour which can hurt our eyes.
