Huobi responded: Huobi Global Limited has the right to use trademarks in many legal jurisdictions around the world
ChainCatcher news, regarding Li Lin's formal lawsuit against Huobi for using the "Huobi" trademark in Hong Kong, Huobi officially responded to Odaily Planet Daily as follows:
Huobi Global Limited has the trademark rights in many jurisdictions around the world, and therefore has the right to use it freely.
Huobi Global Limited is not registered in Hong Kong. The trademark rights in Hong Kong depend on the laws and regulations of Hong Kong.
Currently, we have not formally received any court acceptance notice and do not have detailed knowledge about the lawsuit. We will communicate actively.
According to a previous exclusive report by Wu Shuo, X-Spot Limited, controlled by Li Lin, today filed a lawsuit against Huobi (Huobi Global Limited) for trademark infringement in the High Court of the Hong Kong Special Administrative Region.
The lawsuit claims that X-Spot Limited has always retained exclusive rights to the "Huobi" trademark, and Huobi (Huobi Global Limited) has been using the trademark without authorization from X-Spot. (Source link)
