This is a post in response to the debate about changing our Bitcoin Wales logo. I am pleased to announce that the original logo is remaining. We were spam voted by someone on the 4th and as a result we have decided to disregard the votes from that date onwards. Bearing that in mind and taking in the results from the 28th August to the 3rd September the votes are 31 in favour of adopting to a new Symbol and 40 in favour of remaining with the existing logo. 2 votes were invalid as they voted for both options. I want to thank everyone for spending the time to vote and the overall results can be found here. For those who have not been following this debate, the original proposal can be found here. The good news is there is currently a draft proposal underway to have the bitcoin sign added to Unicode. The proposal for the addition of the Bitcoin sign to Unicode is being led by Ken Shirriff and can be read here.

Kindest regards
Phillip George
