WE LEARNED —

Bitcoin and crypto are way bigger than just tokens. Their principles can reinvent entire systems (government, voting, economics, etc.) and make them more free and fair.

THE ASK —

Sovryn launched in December 2020 as a DeFi platform for lending, borrowing, and margin trading with Bitcoin—but their vision is so much larger than that. The brand assets and language they were using weren’t going to get them to that next level. Our task was to take a DeFi platform based on Bitcoin and help it become the first digital nation-state built on the principles and technology of Bitcoin. A tall order, for sure, but we were up for the challenge.

WHAT WE DID & HIGHLIGHTS  —

When Sovryn approached us, they had a brand that resonated strongly with Bitcoin “maximalists,” a small portion of the population who are totally bought into that specific cryptocurrency and its ideals. But the brand wasn’t reflecting what Sovryn truly believes: that sovereignty is for everyone, everywhere. To reach the average person, they needed to start speaking in a more inclusive way, a way that reflects their broader vision. With this in mind, we focused on copywriting that transformed the way Sovryn speaks about their platform so that their message resonates with a wider audience.

Visually, we wanted to keep the brand bold, revolutionary, and optimistic. We achieved this through the use of vibrant colors, with orange hinting at Sovryn’s Bitcoin roots. For typography, we selected Druk Standard Bold for its powerful and fearless look. For illustrations, we opted for an AI-driven approach, training Dall-E to generate evocative & expansive imagery in a digitally painted style that was both futuristic and optimistic to evoke a sense of hope for the future. With a few tweaks to the logo, we were able to keep the strong, superhero-esque triangle shape while elevating it to look more grown up.

By the end of this engagement, we delivered a new logo, visual assets, website, and brand book that make Sovryn’s mission and vision crystal clear and more accessible for all. We’re most proud of the way we were able to create an identity that evolves Sovryn from a mere “brand” to a flag-bearing nation state.
