BGIN BLOCKCHAIN wins trademark dispute over ICERIVER domain name

BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED (NASDAQ: BGIN) announced that a World Intellectual Property Organization panel ruled in favor of the company in a trademark dispute involving its ICERIVER brand.

On March 4, 2026, the WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center panel decided in favor of BGIN Trading Limited and BGIN EU Limited, subsidiaries of BGIN, in case number DEU2025-0038 against respondent Michal Beno. The panel ordered the transfer of the disputed domain name iceriver.eu from Beno to BGIN EU Limited.

The panel determined that Beno registered the domain name and created an associated website targeting BGIN's ICERIVER brand to impersonate the company and attract customers for commercial gain. The respondent's website falsely claimed to be "the official European distributor of ICERIVER ASIC Miners" and "the only official distributor for factory ICERIVER in EUROPE" without authorization from BGIN.

BGIN designs and manufactures cryptocurrency mining machines under its ICERIVER brand, which launched in early 2023. The company is a digital asset technology firm that develops cryptocurrency mining technologies and hardware.

The domain name transfer will be implemented by a European domain registry. BGIN stated it will continue brand protection and intellectual property management efforts across global markets.
