At current forum exchange prices this is about $50 USD of BMR, but probably this will increase a lot over the next few weeks as network hashrate is rising exponentially each day.

I think supply of BMR is capped at 18.45 M, which is less than for BTC.

Web site I'm told is currently in the works.

Luke, I have news from your Father!

Bytecoin needs new super-logo as all coins, so I announce the logo contest.

There is the link to special thread - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582743 (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=582743)!

Logo contest will be ended May, 12 at 00:00. After that our community will vote for favorites (I will create a vote) and a decision will be made in 24 hours.

Reward for winner is 2,000,000 BCN! Today 2 mln BCN is approximately equal to 0.4 BTC.

Ready, steady, go!

What kind of logo do you want , as far as I know Monero means mono (“money”) +‎ -ero (“bit”) .

So something similiar to Bitcoin's logo ?

We should extend this indefinitely until we get 10 good candidates. Deadlines are silly when there are more critical things that are needed like pools and a GUI. :P

I only have some paint skills, so I will not create a logo, but I have some ideas for a baseline:

Monero por la popolo per la popolo.

Monero kiu simple funkcias.

Anonimeco tra matematiko

Yeah you need to extend the length of this competition. These logos are terrible. I'll whip something up.

Monero. I don't think the devs are enforcing any deadline so feel free to keep submitting.

I orientated my logo at the Esperanto logo, just 90° turned and with "m" instead of "e". And the hat in the second variation is to symbolize the anonymity

Hope u like it :)

Plain and simple. We can add fancy circle, colors and icon styles later :=)

Nice idea (I am not found of logos for a currency) but this one reads like "double-A". Still, some potential.

This is a cool idea. I feel like the orange you used takes too much from both bitcoin and bytecoin, any other color ideas? Also, the $ in the middle -- can you change it to the M with bars in it I've seen come up numerous times? I think that would look nice, what do you think?

I'm digging the liberal use of stars! But, they seem to be bottom-heavy and that leaves half of the image feeling light with the one lonely little star on top. Any reasoning for the stars?

Already did, actually I commented on all the logos that stood out to me there first. I don't think TFT will be locking the threads ever, so we're left with two logo threads it seems. Fortunately they're both for the same coin . . provided people are making logos for the coin I would hope they're able to piece together that the name is now Monero and not Bitmonero though.

Maybe I have too much faith though :) I'll just cross-post everything to that thread.

The logo guidelines tell us that a logo should be developed firstly in B&W ... when I post that I was just showing the conceptual idea ... I would like to show the letter "M" ; the conception of community and p2p all together ... I should get a better design program capable to work with layers etc... unfortunately I have no spare time ... but for anyone who liked it please feel free to do any modifications ... and if you get 300bmr and would like give some tip to me I'll be happy ;)

ps-> there are a nice videos tutorials on Lynda.com about branding and logo design ... check out ..

http://www.lynda.com/articles/6-attributes-of-good-logo-design

A simple logo must be constant on all branding and collateral products too ;)

Thanks for the link, I don't know anything about logo creation . . but feel comfortable sharing what little thoughts I have when I see them.

I also like that the 4 m's give the impression of abundance (for me at least), and symmetry is always a great thing to have.

I think the bounty is up to 600 now, according to the new thread.
