This is the point I dont understand about vertoe leaving....They left before anything was 100% set in stone?

 He left, I guess, out of saturation? Burn-out? Felt overly-ignored? A combination?

My basic contribution.

Italicized to represent motion and speed. The single dash D can be used as the default logo.

I'd do it like this

Could someone add  "digital cash", small at the bottom of this version, as part of the logo,  to see how it looks please?

I have to admit, I wasnt 100% convinced on the name, like others were saying...I thought it was ok but we could do better. But afte messing about last night, its started to grow on me. Done in PS for quickness (no vector goodness)



Morse code of the left,

D -..
A .-
S ...
H ....

I had a few others, but this was prob my fav.

look good

I agree, and I like the colors. Just a thought, I don't have one in front of me, but what about employing the colors and cryptic references to the new $100 bill?

One (possibly small) point, we are still seeing new articles that honestly believe we are still using the old-old darkcoin logo. If first we change name and then much later change logo, we will be seeing that "D" until the end of time. New brand, fresh start!

[Sub-Ether]

Thanks for the replies everyone, I am not going to quote anyone and feed the trolls. I will continue to support Darkcoin as I have done(loyally and ruthlessly). Just remember, hacking attempts don't always come down the usual programming routes and can be socially engineered over long periods of time.
Darkcoin is at the cusp of something way beyond what it started as and can achieve spectacular game changing results and its at a particularly vulnerable stage in it's evolution,  thats all I want to say.

Oo and have a nice day, can't forget that  

Sidenote:  Bter withdrawals are very slow, it took 3 hours today to get a few darkcoin back, though at least I got what I asked for - meaning: cryptsy are still giving full half quarter any random amount less than what you asked for...

Just read this please, in case you missed it.

Xposting from DCT:

I have one last thing to say, the main argument I have heard against Dash is that it is a bland name. I think the people that feel this way are completely missing the point. We should with go with DASH precisely because it is a bland name, so we can build a strong brand out of it. Name != Brand

The problem with Darkcoin as a name is precisely that it is too explicit the name suggests a meaning and detracts from the brand, when the project adds other aspects to it that are not the ones explicitly described by the name. Take important examples in crypto: Circle and Square. They can be developed into great brands in crypto because the names do not suggest any meaning so in the crypto context Circle and Square just acquire the ideals associated with those companies. I am sure if Evan came up with the name Triangle people would be going crazy.

Another good example is Apple, some people might say, but Apple is a huge company, again missing the point. When Apple was back at the garage and Steve Wozniak and Steve Jobs decided to call their new company like the fruit, apple was not yet Apple. Meaning the ideals, you have learn to associate with that brand, great design, user friendliness, good quality, were not present back at the garage, it was just a "bland" name. This property of blandness allowed it to develop into a brand.

Also, the "blandness" of the name, I really see it as flexibility of the brand and it is very important. You have to be capable of abstract thinking and projecting yourself into the future, back when Steve Jobs named Apple, apple, he was only thinking about computers not iPods, iPhones or iPads. Fortunately, their brand is flexible enough. Back when Evan named Darkcoin, darkcoin, he was not thinking about InstantX, scalability or decentralized applications and services that is why we need to change, we need something more flexible as we don't know what will come later.

Same thing applies to Dash, if Circle and Square work, Dash can work too, and if we work very hard, one day people will associate, privacy, freedom, transparency, great technology, decentralization with our brand. Brands take time and hard work to develop, so instead of fighting about a perfectly good name, we should think of ways we can project ideals that reflect the true essence of our project into our new brand. Dash will be great, in time.

Dash calls for terror attack on Drk!

Sorry guys I had to.

Don't mind if dash sound like daesh from isis shit,they all gonna die anyways soon  

[g4q34g4qg47ww]

Is there a purpose to being a Darkcoin Foundation Member, is the board the only decision making entity? Since they are not elected and seem to be in very firm control of the future of the coin I would very much like to understand how the structure works, as well as the decision making. In my opinion Evan is the daddy so what he says sorta just goes to a certain extent. But there are a lot of invested parties and I would love some clarification as to how the decision making process works. What is the role of a darkcoin (or dash) foundation member?

It's pronounced DASH

No it is not, it is "daesh" and it is an arabic term, and unrelated to our context. We just need to append digital cash at the bottom of the new branding.  Do not fear, the brand is what we will build and what we project, so do not add fear to it. Brands absorb emotion.
