domains DNW: Blockchain.com settles lawsuit against Blockchain.io owner

[Lox]

Blockchain Luxembourg S.A. and Blockchain (US), Inc. have settled a lawsuit the companies brought against Paymium.

The plaintiffs own Blockchain.com and Blockchain.info, and Paymium owns Blockchain.io. In a suit filed in September 2018, the plaintiffs argued that Paymium was infringing on the plaintiff’s trademark for Blockchain with its site at blockchain.io. It argued that it was confusing that blockchain.io is just two letters off from blockchain.info.

The word blockchain is not a brand name: those of blockchain.com are ridiculous.
They just aren't satisfied with having the .com, they want the .io as well.
This shows how important the .io is in the crypto world.

I have a few blockchain.ext domains that are obviously inferior to these, but still...

Do the .com owners really think they own the rights to a generic word like Blockchain?? Silly, greedy..

If you mean www.wwwblockchain.com the answer is no, but if blockchain files a complaint it will probably be the fastest decision in the history of domain disputes and you will lose that name.
