the same codebase can certainly generate a native iguana for now only for unix and osx, but if somebody can port a few functions to windows and do the build, it should even work natively in windows.

I am avoiding google as much as I can. I have an android phone just for some apps. I have never placed my sim card inside, never used it to check my emails etc. Google is trying to get as much private information as it can from users. With an android phone google has access to your position, your email, text messages, calls, your credit card, etc. They have even agreed that even your voice while you are not even using the phone can go to their servers (if you use apps to communicate with your phone with your voice) I just do not trust google. That's it! ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) And one thing I didn't like is the decision to use BTCD with chrome. You can't be anonymous on a spy. agreed. especially super filthy: the thing with the activating the microphnoes and routing everything to their servers. Hey- I do not even own an Android device, and never have. If it must be such a 'smart'phone or mobile device, I'd be giving Sailfish a try. I amusing chrome on Ubuntu, and I don't trust it very much either. The only reason to do that is that it is less bloated than Firefox. But for mass adoption of BTCD/SuperNET, a standalone chrome app is a good option, because accessing the gigantic user base is a major achievement. And for the tech and privacy aware, I am fairly sure that a standalone Iguana without chrome is also available- which I will be using for sure, instead of a chrome app... What about using Chromium, it lacks the closed source parts that chrome has. I'm pretty sure Chromium can run chrome apps too. Correct me if I'm wrong.

A month ago I tried to install the linux wallet on my phone (which runs a debian distribution) but I couldn't do it. It would be a pleasure staking btcd on a cell phone https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nokia_N900I think the N900 is a real king. I own two of them and I plan to buy another one soon.

It never even occurred to me- staking on a Linux phone will be way cheaper than some DigO or AWS VPS! Finally a good reason to get one!

You can use a charger to charge the battery externally. You can also have more than one batteries. Japod batteries are cheap and better than genuine nokia

I think Chrome is a decent browser and far better than Internet Explorer/Edge. Personally, I like Firefox best. Also, I have to agree with the other that have posted about Google prying into our privacy as they have truly become an unregulated technology company monopoly.

Opera is my favorite but it has some incompatibilities with many websites a good way to search on google and avoid being tracked is by using disconnect.me https://search.disconnect.me/I am also paying a VPN service. I am not happy with their speed but, I am happy because they block tracking, malicious websites etc You also have access to websites that are blocked in your country. I paid around $15 on black friday sale. I think the normal price is around $70 I paid for premium (not premium plus) http://www.cyberghostvpn.com/en_gbI also use peerblock which blocks organizations IPs, government IPs etc. It's a free tool http://www.peerblock.com/releases/public-releases/peerblock-1.2.0-r693Also Ghostery for firefox is good and free https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/ghostery/?src=searchAnd by deactivating Javascript, Java, ActiveX, WebRTC and Flash on your browser you are a bit safer. A good website to test your anonymity is http://whoer.netLast, I recommend Tails which is a bootable image. It appears to be OK but deep inside I have a fear so I don't use it to pay by credit card, check emails etc. https://tails.boum.org/

I do not like the new logo! Am I the only one, who is bothered about this?
The color orange is not adequate IMO for a "dark" coin, should be rather blue or similar (blue-green?, blue-black?, blue-violet?), dark color anyway, orange is too "bright" (just my personal taste).
The form of the logo will hardly be recognized this way. The "recognition value" is maybe not very high. Could anybody explain me the meaning of these curves?
The old logo was better, please switch back or choose a better one.
Like BTCD anyway. Strategy is good and we will succeed.

My suggestion would be something more in the direction like this: ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Ffs5.directupload.net%2Fimages%2F160104%2Fmijtur55.jpg&t=665&c=P16kzmqEnepy9Q) or ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=http%3A%2F%2Ffs5.directupload.net%2Fimages%2F160104%2Ft9h7pefl.jpg&t=665&c=Py1b3aw5-jyTLA) Color blue/black - constant Logo - abstract but still readable as B and D, black outer curve symbolizes the teleportation process. These are only raw drawings made in 5 minutes in paint. This is not a professional picture and I'm not a graphics designer. A good and creative graphics designer could make it lots better using some effects.

I think the colour is good. But I do enjoy fanta and orange crush ![Smiley](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/smiley.gif) so perhaps I'm biased. The logo looks like it already incorporates the B and D but just not so obvious. I don't believe BTCD is meant to attract and primarily be used in 'dark' markets or want to give the impression that it is all it can be used for. It's much much bigger than that.

I don't believe BTCD is meant to attract and primarily be used in 'dark' markets or want to give the impression that it is all it can be used for. Are you sure? After the renaming of Darkcoin into Dash ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif) BitcoinDark is the last big resort of darkness. Dash/darkcoin has made many things fine, good logo, good functions... but the name is a disaster! I strongly hope the team of BTCD does not plan to rename BitcoinDark! (cause the name is exciting good!). BTCD could be the only "dark" coin! It's a chance.

My take on the new logo. The orange part is referring to the B curves of Bitcoin (hence the orange) The Black part is referring to the D of Dark (hence it's black) If you compare this logo with the logo from instandex and the Pegged asset exchange it's even in comparable styles. https://cdn-images-1.medium.com/max/800/1*a46PATAMvmCIu9WJW7FqJA.jpeg
