The bottom bar is a nice solution because it is easier to reach, so improve the UX. But it's quite messy with 4 icons of different styles.
I would harmonize the icons, replace the SN icon with a "home" icon, and put the post button centrally, doubling its width, to promote participation. I would also move the profile to the top right, near the wallet shortcut, because it should be an element with a low frequency access.
Instead the go back icon can go to the left-bottom, so it is quicker to click.
And finally we have on the top-left a place for the logo.
Something like this:
An improvement indeed.
Only thing i'd change in your sketch would be the placement of the profile button + wallet balance: make those two things like they were in the old design, top right, with the wallet balance on the left, profile pic on the right.
Mighty-fine work.

My sketch is actually like the old design, isn't?
But I agree that it is better to align the profile badge to the right.
I would not add the pic, I don't think it is really useful (everyone knows himself) and I doubt there are a lot of users that use several accounts, and so need to spot easily which they are using.

For consistency, I would keep the exact same structure. The back and home icons are faded, because they are disabled.
I would also remove (everywhere) the price on the top bar, perhaps it is a bit too obvious; I think that on the homepage is sufficient.
This space could be profitably used for the territories.
Are there other pages with a special structure?
