The logo and name is the brand. How do you visually represent a specific payment protocol without using its logo? There’s no emoji for HTTP or TCP either.

I'm actually for the idea of emojis for protocols. Not Bitcoin specifically because I don't think it has long term potential as a deflationary virual asset, but block chain? Sure.

while there may not be an emoji for http, maybe there should be. there is sort of an unofficial one (a broken lock), and there are other protocols that have logos. as another commenter said, it's kind of silly to fight for an emojii for it, and probably sillier to fight against it.

No God, Please No!

We don't need another gzip or bzip2 logo. Lol
