Bitcoin Logo

The origin of the Bitcoin logo is little known, for this reason we are going to dedicate an article as a small tribute to its creator/creators:

 
 
The first logo was designed by Satoshi Nakamoto, it appeared after the launch of Bitcoin and was the icon represented in the 2009 Bitcoin wallet, it represents a gold coin with the inscription BC.


In 2010 the logo was presented with only the letter B with its traditional design including the 2 vertical bars at the top and bottom.


But the big change came with the intervention of the user bitboy Bitcointalk in November 2010, proposing some changes to give Bitcoin a brand image and get the logo to be directly identified with Bitcoin, orange circle with the B of Bitcoin in white and slightly leaning to the right.

Also bitboy like satoshi remain anonymous.

  2. Satoshi and bitboy did a great job with the different logos, the end result was a simple but really effective logo.
