Create a set of icons for Cindicator, a fintech ecosystem

Cindicator

Here at Cindicator we are building the future of finance and decision making. We created an ecosystem of products suited for every role in the financial world — analysts (those who help identifying interesting trading opportunities), traders (those who create and execute trading strategies based on analysts' input) and investors (those who provide capital for effective strategy execution). All of the products are powered by the Cindicator token — a utility token that participants hold, receive or pay for using products. Cindicator ecosystem already includes 130,000+ analysts, 4,000+ traders and 18,000 tokenholders. You'll find details on how every product works in the project attachments.

We'd like to receive a set of icons — an icon for each entity of the Cindicator ecosystem. These icons will be used across all of our visual communications – on the website, presentations, social media etc. All icons should of course work well with our existing branding — they are to become an integral part of the communication strategy, — so minimalistic monochrome icons that can be easily rendered in different colours and sizes might be preferable, although participants are welcome to submit any graphic solution and should not feel limited by this suggestion.

We are expecting to receive an initial set of the most important icons (the list is below), and to continue working with the winning designer on expanding the set after the contest has finished. Please carefully read all the provided materials — they will help you gain an understanding of the links between these entities, and they are essential to successful task completion.

Participants icons:
- Analyst
- Trader
- Investor

Products icons:
- Artificial Intelligence
- Hybrid Intelligence
- Analytical platform — product for analysts
- Trading infrastructure
- Analytical products — products for traders

Value icons:
- Question
- Forecast
- Indicator
- Strategy
- Capital
- Profit
- Reward
- Motivational pool (prize fund)
- Fee (commission)

You'll find a webpage layout prototype (the first application of the icons) and Cindicator's colour scheme in the attachments. The webpage layout also contains a brief description of the main entities and their interactions. Apart from that information you are also recommended to check out the following materials:
- Cindicator. Explainer video (https://vimeo.com/290421936) — great contribution of a community member. Although we have changed our visual style since then, the mechanics are accurately explained, and the overall emotion is very much aligned with our vision. We hope that more videos like this will be created in future with the icon set.
- Evaluating Indicators and Learning How to Use Them (https://medium.com/cindicator/evalu…9435c45f4e) — also a contribution of a community member — explains the concepts of accuracy and indicators applications in great detail.
- How a Crypto Tool Helped Me Make 33% in 30 days in the Stock Market (https://blog.cindicator.com/cindicator-how-a-crypto-tool-helped-me-make-33-in-30-days-in-the-stock-market/)— this post by a Cindicator user dives deep into strategies based on indicators.
- Machine Learning at Cindicator (https://medium.com/cindicator/machi…d1d179582e) — this post explains what are machine learning, models, neural networks, and how it all works at Cindicator.

Our ecosystem is built on the principles of collective intelligence. We do believe that not only knowledge, but also skill, art, meaningful communication can and should be crowdsourced — that community effort is worth more than sum of the individual contributions. We strongly recommend you to try using our analytical platform — though you may not at all be interested in finance, it's a good place to see what values we cherish.
