In my opinion, the 2nd version looks better (really, a nice logo) and I just got used to this logo already, seeing it on this forum. But I didn't know that this logo was created by Satoshi, which I think adds value to this image, making it unique in its kind, because it looks like we will never see images created by Nakamoto again.
While this logo was decent in its time, it's quite dated for today's standards(gradients, slight skeuomorphism). The simple orange with white
BTC is simply a lot more simple and timeless.
