While Satoshi Nakamoto is credited as the anonymous creator of Bitcoin (BTC), what often goes unnoticed is the selfless contributions of community members—miners, developers, designers, hodlers, and investors—who help materialize the original vision. However, one such significant contribution was found to carry an imperfection for more than 12 years, invisible to the naked eye.
On November 12, 2010, bitcointalk.org contributor bitboy (not affiliated with YouTuber BitBoy Crypto) posted vector files of the iconic Bitcoin logo, which has been widely recognized around the world. While bitcoiners preach “zoom out” during crypto bear markets, zooming in on the original bitcoin logo shows a small orange line from the background fading into a white “₿”.

The information was first revealed by Crypto Twitter contributor @_Bosch_, who then shared the updated Bitcoin logo after removing the sign and improving stylistic proportions. In further investigation, community member @skyler_fs found that one of the curves of the ₿ logo was also not smooth.
Cryptooshala’s investigation of the above allegations confirmed the shortcomings of the original Bitcoin. vectors. The image below shows two places where there are microscopic design issues.
The revelation does not affect the operation of Bitcoin, and members of the community have not expressed any concerns about this. Even if someone creates new vectors after fixing the deficiencies, it will not be widely accepted unless the community decides otherwise.
Is it possible to achieve financial freedom with bitcoin?
As markets maintain a positive recovery trajectory, bitcoin mining company CleanSpark continues to stockpile hardware from troubled mining companies.
CleanSpark CFO Gary Vecchiarelli said the company expects “explosive growth” in 2023 through mergers and acquisitions.
“In terms of our M&A strategy, we have been among the most active miners to date in acquiring infrastructure and machines, and we will continue to do so,” he added.
