Hello fellow comrades !
The Gridcoin community approved the redesign of the Gridcoin logo. At least the ones that took the time to vote... ;)
(Discussion is here)
It was definitely an important vote. The new logo would be the future symbol of Gridcoin and, we will see it at each future event. Everybody knows how much is important for a cryptocurrency to chose wisely its logo.
Gridcoinstats tells us that the poll was fairly close (57.45% for and 42.55% against) but the ratio of the number of people that actually voted is clearly favorable to redesign (241 for and 31 against ≈ 88,60% ). Of course, the ratio of the number of people voting has nothing with Gridcoin's voting system. Gridcoin has good reasons not to give the same power to new entrants and early investors and I'm completely ok with that.
Now, even if the vote shows a slight preference for redesign. It would be interesting to better understand why the logo does not have massive support. Maybe another survey?
I do not question the outcome of the poll, but a logo is something that needs a large membership from the community. It would be a pity if Gridcoin were content with a slight majority.
That's all folks !
Feel free to 
!
EDIT : I have nothing against people who have refused or approved the design. I try to understand what miss to the new logo to be adopted to the whole community.
