Our logo served us well so far, but I think it's too easy to confuse with the Nix logo. Compare the nix-bitcoin and NixOS avatars on twitter:

My suggestion would be to keep logo but add some Bitcoin-orange coloring. A quick and dirty attempt:
nix-bitcoin-logo-alt
nix-bitcoin-logo-alt3

I think the main goals for the new logo are:

  • should be visually distinctive from the Nix logo
  • optional: it should recognizable that it's derived from the NixOS and Bitcoin logos
  • if we use some colors from the Nix logo and/or from the Bitcoin logo, they should be exactly the same (Nix, Bitcoin: #f7931a). I think right now they're just very similar to the Nix logo's colors but not the same
  • should look good on white and on black

I like the first example, with the logo having both blue and orange 🔥
