Nice simple design, you need to change the Bitcoin logo. Right leaning is Bitcoin (BTC) and left leaning is Bitcoin Cash (BCH). Good luck.

Nice work, you need to add one of the three tag lines to your design. I recommend keeping "BMP" - you can replace 'Bitcoin Mining Parliament' with one of them - if you stick with what you have, it will help you submission to change the name to 'The Bitcoin Mining Parliament' - outlined in the brief. Good luck.

It is very rare for those of us who are ordinary users of Bitcoin Cash to get an idea about Bitcoin Mining. You have brought this rare thing to our attention through your article. .

Hey nice work. The brief outlines you should choose from "The Bitcoin Mining Parliament" or "BMP". You have "The BMP" - I would recommend fixing this up for a better submission. Good luck.
