It's not really a proposed "logo" change, its a proposal to adopt an existing Unicode symbol. It is already an existing Unicode character under the non-profit corporation Unicode Consortium, which describes it as a “latin capital B with stroke” that has the hex Alt +0243. The benefit its that everyone already has access to this symbol, look how easy it is to write here: Ƀ And you can apply font styling to it easily: Ƀ Ƀ Ƀ Ƀ ɃI know we have a special button for BTC here, but most dont....

The old one is fine for promotion and marketing Bitcoin.
The new one is fine for unicode, writing, and hopefully incorporating into our keyboards soon.

Old logo is still pretty much the best by far, maybe you have to find another way to look at it, what about the b sticking out like 3D

That's not the new symbol with the horizontal dash through the B on the links you sent me though.

This is just idiotic. Old. Period.
The old symbol bears significant resemblance to a dollar sign - $ - although double-dashed. That is more familiar and much more likeable than the proposed symbol.
Go for what works when you look at it - not for what is convenient in a font. People can use whatever symbol is convenient in a font, but the logo? Needs to create a connection, and the proposed one doesn't do that. The old one does.

I like the old one. The new one seems to be very similar to some of the fiat money symbols.

What aout still using the old B with the dollar inspired look, make the B black and make a black circle around it as the "new" logo.

The "new" one is already in all the fonts we are using, it will be convenient to use that as a one char symbol for bitcoin. I have no objection to websites and documents using that. Personally, I would use "btc" in the above cases.
