I took in all the technical details:
After generating the first block, we get the address and can generate the next one - the arrow from the first block on the left to the next block of a different size on the right.
after generating the second block, change the address in the first one, so the back arrow and the new arrow to the right for generating the third block and etc.

I still don't grasp why you include double-headed arrows?

All the relations between blocks have one direction, being (imo) always the most important relation the "direction" of the hash which points always backwards, from a block to the previous block.

If you want to include an arrow pointing forwards (as I interpret, that the miner which generates the block makes it possible to append the next block, or as I wrote before, as a general timeline starting at the genesis block), it should be of another color or tone.

And the space between the blocks should be empty, I think. You could, in theory, try to include a symbol representing the mempool, but that would be overly complicated imo.

I drew two variants.
I like the latter myself more.
How are you?

Nothing lasts forever

well there is no specific symbol for the blockchain and hence you can make any symbol of your own which resembles the concept of the blockchain.
In a simplistic way, you can create a ~~symbol~~ image of blocks connected together which will depict the chain of blocks. Or if you like you can simply search for the term blockchain on google images which will show you some really cool images of it.

I think i like the 4th but if you use it at least redraw it.You will not want to stick to any copyright isues.

I think the 1st symbol would be best because it has the highest linkage in all the images and is suitable for building a blockchain. So the 1st icon will succeed

I like the image that Greg Maxwell uses in his avatar. Although I do not know exactly what it represents, for me is trying to demonstrate what is a block. We do not have an icon that could demonstrate what is a blockchain, and if you think well, we do not have an icon for the internet. What you could do is always show something that is related to the subject that you are talking about.

I think its the Coin360 Map

Again ... it should not include circles of any kind. The blockchain is linear. At most, a spiral with the genesis block in the center, like I wrote in a previous post.

It should also be thought about what the arrows mean. The most correct concept would include arrows always pointing to the previous block like the block hashes do, as @Kallisteiros wrote. But we could also include another single arrow, depicting time, in the opposite direction (like a timeline). But this arrow should be a single one, and in another colour or greyscale tone, as it means something completely different. There should never be arrows of the same kind pointing in opposite directions, like in your newest concept.

I guess what gmaxwell meant with this symbol is that a block can include transactions of different sizes and types, data, etc.. For me, it's not a bad symbol at all, however I would tweak the design a bit. Blockchain.info's symbol, for example, is based on the same concept but looks a bit nicer.

Okay
waiting for options.
Interesting.

It seems to me that I took into account all the technical aspects.
And made round - convenient to use.
What do you think?

You can change colors as needed.

Could be combined with gmaxwell's block symbol.

About that. To me, it looks more like a "which square is on top" puzzle or "how many squares are there" or something, than the block symbol

There are no options with a round and cyclic emblem.
But the locks nudged the idea.
Decided to share.

Mh. Don't know.

If the arrows went both in the same direction, it could be a base for something, but the arrows also should point directly to a "block". There is also a little bit of similiarity (may be a little bit too much) to a well-known fast food franchise, so maybe the arrows could be a bit "rounder".

What I meant with my last post was approximately this: "locks" with arrows, the color tone getting lighter from left to right to indicate that the more confirmations it has, the more secure it is.

Could be combined with gmaxwell's block symbol.

Did you just fetched those logos from google search?
If yes, do not use any of them because it may be protected by copyright law.
You don't want them to take down your blog site, don't you?

There's no official icon of the blockchain technology but it seems like there's someone here in this thread that've shared his personally made icon, if it's okay for him to use it, pick that to be safe.

Super.
And are copyrights free?

That doesn't even related to blockchain technology, it should be more of a storage (boxes) or pages of a book.
Why locks?

Google must have misinterpreted blockchain from lock. Take a look at this: BLOCKCHAIN
And the image depicts a "chain of locks" which can also be called "lockchain".
See what I mean?

Cool! I really like that concept.
It's not completely correct however

Right, for the completely correct one see https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.42647945
This one is more of a pop-sciency

Yep. This one is uber-correct. I could imagine both of them as a base for a blockchain logo. The blocks-with-arrows logo one looks surprisingly good vertically (it would need a little tweaking, e.g. 3D effect or something similar, but overall it's pretty OK), or as a spiral or "maze in a rectangle" (always without circularity). I'll look if I can draw a draft of the concept with locks I mentioned in the last post asap.
