It would be nice to hear more about development rather than logos.

Surely development talk is located in the ANN thread? Maybe you mean speculation.

Branding pertains to the majority of a coins chance of success. If you don't get the brand right... you're screwed. You can have the best tech in the world and it will all amount to nothing.

So right now, speculation is very much dependent on the logo.

(Yin Yang & infinity in one logo. Is this fucking perfection or what?)

Personally i don't like it. It does have infinity and yin/yang but is also barely recognizable as 'ae' anymore. It looks messy. just my opinion. i like this one a lot more:

I agree that the a and e should be more like a and e (but symmetric).

But ask yourself this. If someone was to scribble the "aeon logo" after he saw it somewhere, is he going to remember how to do it if he sees the symmetric yinyanginfinity one or the leftsideisnotthesameasrightside one that is more complex?

I like the symmetry a lot. The bowtie is there. The infinity almost there although it could look even more like an 8. And a and e could look a bit more like a regular a and e.

But overall this is better (just in my view) than previous attempts.

Keep the yin yang and pronnounce the 8-infinity a bit more.

Flip the a and copy it to the right side in the place of the e. How would that look?

Pretty close to this:

Almost there but symmetry is lacking. Maybe it would look better if the bowtie would connect in the middle. If the e would just be inversed and flipped a, but also look symetric. And there are many possible variants of how the curves are curved.

I think tag lines and such are distinct from a logo.

Sure, one problem at a time. Just putting it out there.

Also, it seems we got rid of this lighter blue, but I was quite fond of it. Is there any way to see the logos in this shade? It's a great compromise between the electric blue and the dark cyan you are using.

This is my favourite so far. Because of the colours, and that there is no gradient.

I know people were pestering you for symmetry, but part of me still likes the older, non-symmetrical versions better.

Here's something I think crytoandromeda was right about: the ends of the letters (where the connect to the outside of the shape) need to flare out and be thicker. Otherwise when you shrink the icon the whole thing looks wonky.

I do like the square version and am unsure which is best. I will need some time to reflect on it, but I feel like my idea version would one in the lighter cyan, with flared out ends, and using the non symmetrical font we had earlier.

But amazing work. If smooth doesn't like the tagline under Aeon we could always use something hyperbolic like "Perfect Digital Money" or "Precise. Secure. Private." or even "Financial Perfection."

Try connecting the horizontal white lines so the entire thing is horizontal yin-yang circle intersected by a diagonal figure-eight.

This makes the whole thing very abstract (good imo; see successful logo examples above), but the æ concept may still be recognizable if somewhat more subtle.

For whatever it's worth, I like the white on blue ae, but it really needs to be symmetrical around the center point, it just feels wrong otherwise. You end up with a figure of eight on a / direction, with branches on a \. It should be a simple flowing spline stroke for the whole. This implies no serif.

The post above goes in that direction, though the center looks wrong (the inner branches diverge). Also (and this is subjective), I think the outmost branches curve too much, it makes it less recognizable I think.

Also, the dotted name above should really remove the \ in the N, and move the dot down to the center instead, to follow the previous convention (replacing - in A and E). It feels tacked on currently.
