Logo Design Brief
                            **Icon logo** design for finance-centric social media platform. Keep it stupid simple. Color scheme: Very Dark Blue: #0C151F, Dark Blue: #0F1D2C, Light Blue: #00B8FF, feel free to be creative here though. MUST include some kind of symbolism to finance, money, payments, wallets or similar (capital). Should NOT be a C or TC.
PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT ONE PRESENTATION of your logo submission, don't submit the same logo in 5 different presentations. I don't like the Fiverr-like presentation. AND PLEASE explain the symbolism and ideology behind the logos. NO COMPUTER GENERATED LOGOS!
Attached is also some logos I instantly fell in love with, so feel free to be inspired by those, especially the Paytient one. 
Added info: 
A designer made the logo that symbolizes the evolution of money, another one symbolizes the payment between people and a third that resembles chat bubbles/chat payments. Don't know if that sparks some ideas.
PS: I like rounded corners rather than sharp edges.
