Mainnet Remixing TRUF: The Community Took Over
The winner and honourable mentions from our #TRUFremix contest!
Last weekend, we handed the TRUF logo over to the TRUF.SEEKERS community and said: go wild. The result? Creative chaos - and we loved it. First up: a massive thank you to everyone who jumped in. We saw clever designs, weird ones, funny ones, elegant ones. Picking just one winner wasn’t easy, but after some back-and-forth, we landed on a favorite.
🏆 The Winner: @SegadorJ3L
Segador didn’t just give us a remix - he gave us a concept. His version pulled back the layers on the TRUF logo to reveal what’s going on under the hood.
Here’s how he put it: Most systems are sealed tight - TRUF isn’t. Peel back the layers and you find the beating heart: Logic, smart contracts, real-time data flow. His post laid it all out like a visual metaphor for what makes TRUF different.
We ended up going with one of his earlier iterations for the final version. Why?
Tug (our brand lead) originally designed the logo to evoke an all-seeing eye - this one really brought that out.
TRUF gives users clear, verifiable data - but what they do with it? That’s not on us. So we kept the outer edges dark, to reflect that open-ended unknown.
This was his official entry:
I’ve been loving all the logo remixes people have posted! I wanted to share mine, it’s something I gave a lot of thought to.
I’ve been asked many times: What does TRUFNETWORK do differently from other institutions?
So I tried to answer that visually.
- 1st image: The logo with all its lids closed. This is what we usually see.
- 2nd image: But what’s happening under the hood? What do we often miss, even though it’s running constantly?
- 3rd image: We begin to see that the center holds a “heart”. Where all the smart contract logic is coded.
- 4th image: With all the lids removed, the full picture is revealed. TRUFNETWORK is a living network, continuously processing MILLIONS of data inputs.
It never stops. It’s not static. It’s a living machine.
Unlike centralized or government bodies, where these “lids” are locked shut and the public has no access, TRUFNETWORK is built differently
This is what TRUFNETWORK does differently. It doesn’t just gather millions more data points (and in real time) compared to traditional institutions. It also puts everything out in the open.
👁 Honorable Mentions That Deserve Love
@BodyofCat – Your “Eye of Sauron” remix was hilarious. We felt it watching us!

@Ergamjee – That slick silver animation looked top-tier. Super polished and made us feel very fancy!

Thanks again to everyone who contributed. This won’t be the last time we throw something to the community of TRUF.SEEKERS - we’ve got more fun experiments ahead so keep your “eye” open!
