+ The Circle-A Anarchism Symbol
+ The Dark Wallet Logo
The circle-A logo is by far the oldest and most recognisable anarchist symbol and would in theory be ideal. One of the main problems with its use however in this case is that the crypto-anarchist tradition has much stronger links with the American-tradition libertarian movement than it does with radical left-wing anarchism. Crypto-anarchism is not really an anti-capitalist ideology (in so far as the "capitalism" is not state-colluding croney capitalism). Using this symbols lacks any differentiation from other brands of anarchism, from which crypto-anarchism is very different.

The Dark Wallet logo I actually personally think is a perfect symbol for the Crypto-Anarchist movement: its symbolism (an inverted *all-seeing* eye) perfectly captures what cypherpunks and crypto-anarchists want to achieve. If this site gains a decent size audience, I will probably write a blog post arguing for adoption of this symbol as the main symbol used to represent "Crypto-Anarchy" the ideology. Some communities have already begun using it in this way. [/r/anarcho_capitalism](https://reddit.com/r/anarcho_capitalism) has used the symbol for their "crypto-anarchist" flare for years. However, as of right now, it is primarily the symbol of an abandoned software project.
