As I said, I wanted to give it a try!

But I'd like to share with you some of my thoughts as a professional art director and designer before showing you the results.
We are talking about a logo here, but this is an actual restyling of your coin (brand), so it's not just the logo: it's about the way Crypto Bullion talks to his customers and buyers, its "tone of voice".

Therefore, let's start with the name: I think that the name Crypto Bullion is a little weak compared to other competitors'. If you take a look at the top positions of the cryptocurrencies chart, the coins have simple names (quite always they are just a single word); if you take out clones created by forks, in the first 10 positions you have: Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Cardano, IOTA, Dash, NEM, Monero. And I could go on, but I think you got the idea: the winning names are simple, short and easy to memorize. As a professional, I'm sure that Bitcoin is the top player also because of its perfect naming! I understand the reasons why you included the word crypto in your name back in 2013, but years have passed, cryptocurrencies have grown in popularity worldwide, and that need may no longer exist.
Luckily for you, you have a great solution at hand! You can easily switch from Crypto Bullion to just Bullion, keeping CBX as the short name. This makes it possible for the market to know it's the same coin we are talking about while realizing some major changes are going on. And that is the main purpose of a restyling (rebranding)!

Talking about the design, my main goal was to create a modern logo, able to communicate the technology behind the coin and the seriousness of the project. Like you suggested, the logo I designed is a stylised bull: the bull is, according to me, a perfect choice since it is a symbol of power, the symbol of the market growth and strentgh, and you can find the word bull hidden in your name! I designed a symbol that is indeed a bull but that, being so simple, becomes some sort of an abstract shape, a memorable corporate logo with a contemporary touch.
I chose a modern sans serif font, with characteristic lines and recognizable geometries. It is bolder than the previous one and italic: this helps to communicate that it is sophisticated digital store of wealth.

I designed the logo, its negative version (to use on dark background) and a few examples of application, to understand how the logo and brand image could work on different media: they are the splash page of an app, a background and a physical coin, after reading that FiniteByDesign wants to create one!

I also made a screenshot of the all cryptocurrencies chart, to show how the logo works if very small, and how it feels compared to the competitors' logos.

Let me know what you think about my proposal, hope you like it!

thebiglello,

WOW! Excellent logo, font and naming suggestion. I think you are right on target with all of this, thank you!

I agree these are excellent points and fit precisely with what we are aiming at (re-establishing CBX as a top 10 crypto).

I am not sure if this was by design, but your logo submission in addition to being a bull, also looks like a suit tie - further emphasizing the professional appearance desired.

Again, excellent work, I am impressed.

Yes, there is no way around this, you have a point! Love the idea of the "Bullion" - that name belongs to CBX.

I also like the logo; let's see what others think

I'm glad you agree and like the logo too!
Let's wait for the rest of the team  Grin

for some reason i was not able to upload on file hosting.
so i uploaded it on mega

https://mega.nz/#F!bsFTQLxI!mlnRyL3MfrMkhSuj3McuhQ


made a few designs. still working on more.

1 & 2: design 1 and 2 are CBX letters resembling a vault.

3: the bull in the designs 3 is very polygonal but it can be changed ( customized to liking ) but just wanted to put an idea if that is something interesting to you.

I kinda like the ones with the Bull; something of a base we can start perfecting and improving - for one thing imo horns should be pointed upwards please, not downwards...

What do you guys think?

Is there a deadline?
I'd love to give it a try!

No deadline at the moment but if someone submits a winner, we will close the competition and go with it. However, we would like this as soon as possible as we have a release coming very soon with which this new logo would be used.

Thank you for your contribution; I suggest however something that doesn't necesarily look like a coin please, round coin logos are very 2013-ish, if I may. Also, everybody is welcome to comment on my ideas!

Hi,
i would like to give it a try. I did make few logos last year but i think they were similar to the current ones anyways so i will make some new.

also, when you say platinum color, does it mean shiny like the platinum metal?
or are you also open for some flat solid kinda logos? and then we can also make it into a 3D metal later.

till when do i have time for this because its holiday season and i wont have access to design till 26th.

Hey Aiz, nice to see you drop in!

You are welcome to participate in this logo design contest; just this new logo has to be simple, great, and corporate inspired - no more Photoshop 3D stuff (or 3D kept at a minimum)

Just like big corporations do, we are free to incorporate a symbol of power - in the case of CBX I suggest a stylised Bull -

Think a total revamp on the logo is in order. Total different approach.

Keep getting a vision of the wheel on a vault door symbolising the C and the X but the B I'm stuck on. Maybe an upside down keyhole.

Would rather see something more simple and elegant. The best logos are the simple ones.

Great idea! I would like to make a new physical CBX so watching this in earnest. I will also add 50 CBX to the prize pool to be used at the organizers discretion.

Cool. Will be purchasing one of those
