What is the meaning of the tonicpow logo? Because of my research and activism in child trafficking it makes me think of a bottle of adrenochrome.
I wrote this reply 4 times. This is the calm one. You should focus your activism on the legions of child abusers who need to be exposed, not making baseless associations like this. You clearly don't know me or you wouldn't suggest this.
Not personal. I owned a successful ad agency for many years & was involved in the design of 100s of logos. We researched for days looking for any cultural or foreign associations the logo might evoke. I was really just trying to be helpful.
It's personal to me. I named the company and created the branding. I'm also a father. Ever see a potion in a video game? Tonic: a medicinal substance taken to give a feeling of vigor or well-being.
If adrenochrome is the first thing that comes to mind when you see a bubbling magic potion in a bottle, you probably spend too much time on the weird part of the internet.
Sometimes, pizza is just pizza - the Italian food made of dough, sauce and cheese.
AMEN!!
Yes, sometimes.
Adrenochrome is going to be a big story in the global consciousness soon. Others will "see" it too. Your marketing team might advise you to change the color?
I work very hard for abused children & a parent too. All the best with your venture.
If others "see" it, they are equally absurd. Health potions belong to Zelda, fantasy novels, and TonicPow... not these monsters. When I order Jet's Pizza, I think of actual Pizza ffs. I doubt they'll consider changing the color thank God. Same for us.
I very much doubt you were trying to be helpful. That is not a symbol for adrenochrome and by your comment you probably haven't researched the topic very much at all.
The logo, color scheme and the general look is really professional and clean. I too have designed lots of logos, and this one is done right. The tech is also fantastic btw 😎 . This project grew so much since the Toronto Conference! Keep kickin ass @888 !
Much appreciated, and lots more on the way :)
It seems to me that, atm, we're all sybils under a massive continuous attack. So how can anyone know what's true and what isn't?
misinformation/disinformation/corrupted politics/corporate lobbying/corrupted media/politicised 'science'/etc etc etc
We have this massive data reference called history though.
A lot of history is similarly distorted for the same reasons. There's often an agenda.
I'm not suggesting that we give
up on seeking truth. But that it's important to be aware of current circumstances.
Solutions will be found. Bitcoin/PoW etc.
I still love TonicPow's original landing page art - the new version is doubtlessly more polished but the mage at the potion shop was <3
How much of that history is on chain though?
yea same for me. we def want to re-introduce that aesthetic where we can. reached out to the artists but no connection yet.
Very little it's true. But data existing on a distributed ledger does not make it necessarily true. But yes it is a means of creating a better 'true enough'.

Like Satan, my livelihood ha$ been $igils & $ymbolism: corporate LOGOS.
You know not who you trounce.
Clean-good design. Reverse to lean forward. Change tonic to DRAGON GOLD: BSV pantone. I charge 100$ an hour to SEE. Free consult- I'm on your side.
people will "see it" in all the wrong places, by design.
keep your eye on the ball
