The little serifs on the lines are basically lost at this scale, so why bother with them?

I think your little SF wave mark can be simplified. I think the bottom of the S can become the top of the F by removing one or more lines. Refine the mark and maybe give it a little more prominence (size it up a tiny bit). The green is cool, but with the gray it feels too familiar. Maybe play with color a bit more.
Also, is it Starters, or Starter's?

I agree with monospaced, I'd try the SF mark with one less line. I also noticed that the top line in the mark doesnt have the "serif." I don't think the bottom one should either since technically it is the vertical line among horizontal ones. Maybe if it was even more like a dot?

Just a thought, but when you read the line mark from top to bottom there's a distinct backwards/declining motion. Probably not something you want associated with finance or money in general. It needs more upward directionality – tilt the whole thing to the right, so the bottom of the line-F "reads" first. And get rid of all the serifs.

Rather than just presenting two logos with no context, why not provide some kind of background or rationale between the two approaches, and an explanation of what you are trying to communicate? That way, rather than just commenting on aesthetics, we can provide feedback on which is better at fulfilling it's purpose.
- but, but that would make our comments relevant... this is QBN, we are only here to waste our time, right?Amicus
- haha, true!Nathan_Adams

Neither - start from scratch.

I think with the stacked SF thing, you might do better with the F in grey, and the S in green since the S is more obvious of a first-read than the F. I could mock it up in PS real quick, but I'm drunk and tired.

Something to this direction, perhaps. Not sure ´bout the colors though, but with fewer lines at least in the SF and a bit different approach to the letters.

I've had to layout all sorts of co-branding logos in a row monstrosities over the years.... where your logo is in competition with others and there are requirements that they are all "the same size"
This results in "squarer" logos getting much more prominence than "horizontal" logos..
so you mighttry these logos out in a "sea of logos" from other brands if you think they're going to sponsor any civic or nonprofit events where somebody has to make a poster with a pile of logos next to each other....
