Cryptocurrency web wallet provider Blockchain has filed a complaint in a U.S. federal court alleging attempted deception by a copycat website.
In a blogpost, Blockchain — whose website is hosted at blockchain.com — identifies the platform, blockchain.io, as a deliberate impostor that is attempting to rebrand itself in order to continue in its usual insincere practices from years back.
Deliberate Attempt to Mislead
Blockchain’s major concern over this development as reported includes the fact that the establishment is confusing customers and misleading them into thinking that they are “Blockchain”. This concern arises from the brand similarities which are thought to be designed deliberately.
They include:
1.Similar domain name to website (blockchain.io)
2.Similar colors to website (shades of dark blue)
3.Similar logo (a cube instead of a square) made up of similar geometric shapes (circles instead of rounded boxes).
4.Repurposed tagline “connecting the world to crypto” through a thesaurus to come up with “your gateway to the internet of value.”
