Hi Everyone,

Sorry, I just noticed this thread.

I just put up the original designs here http://litecoindeveloper.com/ltc-designs/

At the bottom of the page there is a link for original versions (design evolution, so to speak).  The main design (known as 6a) has won the majority vote of developers involved in the Litecoin project. (That was like a year ago!).

Glad to see this come back.

On the page you will find a link to a ZIP file, which contains 6a images and an Adobe Illustrator vector file.  You are free to use this as you like.

A bit about the design:
- Binary numbers represent (unixtime) date of the litecoin genesis block
- Continents - represent global access
- Computer Processor & Circuitry - represents the tools of the miners
- Hammers - represents mining (traditional mining logo)

From my personal perspective, Litecoin is the only other cryptocurrency that has a potential to become a viable alternative/supplemental currency to Bitcoin.  I view Litecoin as a cryptocurrency of miners. Miners are true pioneers of cryptocurrency, they are the people who in the early days invested their time, money and effort to protect Bitcoin. As Bitcoin mining gets monopolized by ASIC manufacturers, Litecoin provides a safe heaven where instead of getting rid of their mining equipment by selling it at a loss, they can re-target it to protect the Litecoin network. And that, on my belief will inevitably create a market for it's use.  Also, the currency is fair for newcomers, many of whom heard about cryptocurrency only in recent months due to the "Bitcoin boom". They still have a chance to participate, whereas with Bitcoin you have to pay huge amounts of money, stand in queues for months to receive something that you are not even certain about in terms of ROI as it is pretty hard to predict the rise in difficulty.

This is my personal opinion, agree or disagree, but this is why the coin designs have circuitry on the left side.  This circuitry represents YOU people.

Cheers!

P.S.  If you are a developer and have done interfacing with litecoin or bitcoin daemons in any language, please contribute to my development tutorials at http://litecoindeveloper.com.  You can reach me on IRC in #litecoin-dev. Even small snippets of code would be appreciated!

Hi everyone,

First of all, I am sorry some of you do not like the design. This is not a final design and it may be tweaked by the time I get everything lined up with the manufacturer and the money to make them. This ended up being much more expensive than I thought... $7000+ just for the first 1000 coins (the security hologram is the expensive part.) Because it is so expensive, I will only carry one or two coins at the start, and no silver coins at all. Hopefully I can expand my selection shortly after launch, but it just depends on many uncontrollable factors.

I am not going to lie and say I am some expert photo shopper/3d guru like some of the people who have made the coins you guys are posting. But, I'm not too into copying anyone, perhaps those guys would like to actually make those coins one day... who am I to steal their design? At least the LTC logo which I have used is fair game.

Although I am not an expert in coin minting, I have an everlasting enthusiasm for the future of Litecoins, the work ethic to make this project happen, and (hopefully soon) the funds to do it. I hope that I can make these in a way that most people will like them (if not I stand to lose a lot of money.)

Thank you all for your feedback, you can be sure that I have read what you all have to say and am considering everything mentioned.

As soon as I have any updates on this project, I will let ya'll know.

Thanks,

Ch

Thanks for starting this project! Is it possible to perhaps ask the person who designed the bottom right design below if you could use their design for a share of the profits? The bottom right design is a work of art, phenomenal and I really do not think it can be beaten.

i've never liked any of the litecoin designs, except these:


they were released into the public domain by aspect, and were available at http://alpha.cryptotron.com/ltc-designs/original.html (dead site now)

i know there's an awful lot of detail on them (you might want to modify it if your mint cant realistically achieve that resolution) but IMO it's by far the best litecoin design - all the others are complete shit (atleast as far as physical coins go).
Gotta admit those are pretty nice. Wonder if it really costs more to create those.

I don't like them, remind me of a known moneyclub of some sort..


even if he had authorization, it would most likely have to be heavily modified to have less details. I can't say its impossible because I don't know, but its hard to think its possible.

Also coinhoarder, don't let go too much for a design. You have a decent one right now. You can shop around, but even for a killer design, I wouldn't pay much.

Artists are gonna hate me sure, but whatever, I'm a businessman.

Good art is good business. Beautiful things sell. And make the world a bit more awesome for everyone Wink

Cool design  Smiley

I had someone contact me in private about making a neat design for the coins for a percentage of the company.

If we cannot come to terms, I will definitely hit you up- it seems like you could make a good design too.

You would provide a design and I will take care of everything else (funding, manufacturing, and sales).

Thanks,

Ch

Bump- Anyone else that is interested in this offer, please PM me. I am interested in getting the best designer possible for the sake of the success of the project.

I think this would be a nice deal for someone, because after you come up with the designs you just sit back and collect money. I take care of everything else.  Grin

Also... all financial risk is taken on by me and you are out nothing if this project fails, only your time.

Let me know, thanks,

Ch

Leave litecoin on the top and make it with initial upper case -> Litecoin or maybe even all caps -> LITECOIN.
Move cryptovest somewhere else
Definitely have a year minted, not sure about "***" around the year.

The face value seems to me hard to choose.
If its $7000+ for 1000 coins, you can't take the value too low, because if you make a 1ltc coin and people need to pay 4ltc for it they will be less inclined to buy them than if it's a 25ltc coin they pay 28ltc for. But too high and you get the trust issues.  Undecided

I understand why you don't want to take someone else his design Smiley

The bottom right design is just awesome with the circuit board, earth, and Litecoin. It has always been my favourite Litecoin design!

I'm down for buying these - when will they be ready!?!?

ok these are cool and visualize a cryptocurrency pretty good, but don't know if it will scale well to a normal coin size and can be made with that amount of detail.

Maybe one thing that the coin also should have in my opinion, the year it was minted.

They are all the same size and only recently started doing different colors/metals (well, recently in the sense that they were all the same for a long time).
They were all different from the beginning  Embarrassed
But he started with only 2, the 1 and 25, I think this is the best way to go, one small and one bigger. And when you earned enough on those, you can start with more. Better 2  or even 1 really good coins than 5 meh coins.

I like the name by the way  Cool
