Hi,

Shadow is an anonymous cryptocurrency based on Bitcoin, using ZKP & ring signatures.
It also has an HTML Wallet, beautifully designed, with an in-wallet encrypted chat application.

You can see most of informations on the BCT thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=745352.0
or website: http://www.shadow.cash (redesign in work)

Only thing lacking is a good signature to present everything :)

The contest will end the 15th of March 2015 at 10 PM GMT.
It starts the 7th of March, 20 PM GMT



To reward also the unlucky losers, a prize will be given to the 2nd & 3rd place in the votes



To design your signature, you can take information, colors, fonts and ideas from :











nb: an escrow will be given if needed

BTW making a contest is always a bad idea. Just hire someone good.

why it is a bad idea? if you start a design contest there will be many choices to choose from :P

I agree I've seen some pretty slick looking designs come out of contests, looking forward to seeing what everyone comes up with.

So this one designed by LteBit is the current leader IMO. I made a slight edit in my version to include chinese chars.

Reserved post , maybe I will participate to this contest. Thanks for the opportunity.

Any ETA for the official launch?

the official launch of what?

see http://shadow.cash
and check out this vid about Shadow and shadowsend http://youtu.be/CWEzGs2YJtM

+ we're waiting on a peer review of shadowsend atm

we feel our tech supersedes anything XMR or DRK have to offer (well at least I do!)

shadowsend v2 is running live atm
see http://shadow.cash/downloads/shadowcash-anon.pdf

hi bitcats,

Do you mean official launch for the contest ?

I can't really see the point of an "Official Launch", given that there is already enough information in the first post so that someone could already be working on it.

But as I will add more information today, "Official Launch" would be at 6PM UTC (when i will add it)



Even if someone is "the best" in general, you can't know if he will be the best for one work in particular.

Also people should check out this slide show that describes how ShadowSend works: http://shadowcash.info/display/shadow/Transact+Anonymously

OP updated with image & date of start (tomorrow)

I will add more tomorrow, didn't have time today

I really don't see the point

well im already upgraded to this badboy so its winning already imo
thanks to LiteBit who made it

I wonder why these posts have been deleted  ???

maybe because we talked in french :/

^as delboy says: quelle fromage  ;) :D

Reserved, will join this contest if I have time. :)

Reserved
Will make one if I have time
I like the features!

Reserved.

I'll give it a shot too, if I can i.e.
And I am looking forward to Roslin & medusa & jbrnt's design on this.

Reserving this place.

PS:- Are you gonna escrow the amount?

Good bounty, must get some good entries!  8)

Thanks for making this thread, introduced me to this shadow project, it actually looks pretty cool.  Will follow. :)

I had helped to translate the shadow project before, the project seems pretty cool and it impressed me, how the project progress? :)

Cannot compare my simple designs to the real masters. I am only a beginner.  :D

Maybe the mods should learn French  ::)

You're just acting modest man!  ;D You're the devil in disguise, did you not win the last 2 contests back to back?

If it's really needed but i'm not an anonymous guy, i'm known in French bitcoin community IRL, i wouldn't risk my reputation for that amount of BTC.



Shadow is an anonymous coin since december, it's still the first POS coin to have anon tech  :)

It use ring signatures (somehow like CryptoNote) for this.

Next is the rework on Mobile Applications, for Android & iOS.

After that it will be ShadowMarket, an in-wallet anonymous market. It might be something really big  :)




Thanks, don't hesitate to go on the BCT (https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=745352.0) thread, ShadowTalk (http://shadowtalk.org/) (forum) or IRC (https://kiwiirc.com/client/irc.freenode.net/#shadowcash) Channel to ask questions.

Despite the low marketcap the project is continously advancing, and more and more devs come to help  :)

nb: I will add Open Source / Collaborative to the key words that could be in the signature  :)

This is great.

Amazing ! I don't have time to participate but I will certainly watch this thread closely :)

Woohoo loving the community involvement.
Looks like we are heading in the right direction being more community driven.

Just in case you don't know rynomster is SDC Lead Dev  8) \o/
Thanks man! Things are indeed moving along nicely. On the up and up. :)

Yep, thanks ffmad for this !

is this still running?
i just try to make a little design for this

Thanks

Campaign runs until March 15th, according to OP, so yes, it's still running.

Yep, as you said, it's still running  :)

still running through march 15th

I only found out about the project quite recently but was very impressed. 

Can people submit more than one entry for this?

Yes I don't see why not. Go wild! :)

Happy that you have looked at it  :)

We thought that 2nd and 3rd place could be a bit frustrating, so there will be prize for thoses places, in SDC.

In short:







(atm 1 SDC ~ 20k sats)

What would you like as the signature title? (The main text of the signature.) Would you like "Shadow Project," "Shadow Coin," "Shadow Cash," or just "Shadow?"

We don't use "Shadow Coin" but "Shadow Project" or just "Shadow" would be fine for the central text (we quite like them both). "ShadowCash" is the name of the currency, but it's just one element of the project. :)

Ok, thanks! Will use that as the title. Do you want us to include all the "Shadow Cash," "Shadow Send," etc. in the signature too? Or not?

Reserved for now. Will be updating later hopefully or closer to the end date

Yeah, the aim is to show in the signature the majority of the features of the Shadow Project  :)

Good luck to all designers.

I wish you all good luck!, make good use of my designs! (make me proud :D)

They have a really good material to start with, with the quality of your design crz- :)

Hi,

I just need to ask -

"0.2 BTC bounty ★ prize for 2nd & 3rd"

That mean:

1st place - 0.2BTC
2nd,3rd - some unknown yet prize.

@ffmad - You wont split 0.2 between 3 winners? :) Don't you?

Here will be only one winner ,and the prizes are shown on first page. Do not thank me...

Thank you :)

I read the OP 5 times and haven't saw that.  Was it added while editing or it was there from day one?  :-) doesn't matter.

I am working on my designs.

Best regards.

It was added few days ago ;)

Good luck everyone for your designs, and the remaining time :)

2 hours left, I look forward to see the results  :)

edit: if you don't want to show it before the end or can't be here at when the contest ends, you can send me your submission in PM  ;)

Hey,

Here are my designs for SHADOW.

http://btc-embassy.com/temp/ShadowSigs.png

They are highly combatible (mobile/desktop browsers) and all tested - everything fit well into signature space.

I believe you will like them! :)

Best regards!

This is my entry. All text can be changed if needed.

Contest has ended. I suppose some people have forgotten to post their contribution

The 1st and 2nd place will be between the amazing designs of jbrnt and roslinpl  :)

For the 3rd place, you have until tomorrow to post your signature

Whoops, forgot to enter my design. I was away for most of the day, and forgot to enter. :-\ Congrats to the winners though!

Apologies, I planned a trip with my family last weekend and I didn't finish my designs before we left. I believe you have two sets wonderful designs to pick from. Good luck to roslinpl and jbrnt.

Oh, sorry, I think the date wasn't really well chosen  :(

you can still post what you had prepared for the third place ... (in some months maybe 150 SDC could worth more than 0.2 btc)

Hey,

@FFmad, When we will see final results? :)

Best regards.

The poll has started today on ShadowTalk : http://shadowtalk.org/topic/363/vote-for-your-favorite-signature-for-shadow

I will set the end at Friday 1PM GMT, maybe before if there is a clear difference 

Hey,

Thanks for response.

I will keep my eye on that poll and hopefully my signatures will get an attention.

:-) also good luck to jbrnt.


Best regards.

Thanks, good luck to you too.

I am astonished there are only 2 designs. medUSA, conteaza, or Superhitech didn't submit their work.  ???

it seems the end date wasn't good, superhitech and medUSA forgot to submit

Yeah, we were busy and ran out of time.  :-\

And the results are ........

1st Roslinpl
2nd jbrnt

Congratulations  :)

Roslinpl and jbrnt you can contact me by PM and give an address (BTC for Roslinpl and SDC for jbrnt), and BB code ^^


In fact the results were more like :

Best Hero and Senior signatures : Roslinpl, best full member and member signature Jbrnt.

So I think both signatures will be used  :)

Woho! |_(^.^)_|

Will sendI sent you codes and addy in a minute :)
Thanks a lot!

And also congrats for jbrnt!

Best regards.

Congrats roslinpl for winning the contest!

Also, congrats to jbrnt for coming in second!

Second place is good, thanks ffmad. In fact I finished last  :D
