  • Ledger Secures Transfer of Infringing Domains in WIPO Dispute


    Ledger Secures Transfer of Infringing Domains in WIPO Dispute

    The WIPO Arbitration and Mediation Center has ruled in favour of LEDGER SAS, a prominent French company specialising in cryptocurrency security, in a domain dispute involving the names <ledgermarketsapp.com> and <ledger966.com>. The domains were determined to be confusingly similar to Ledger’s trademarks and used without legitimate interests, exploiting the company's international reputation in the digital finance sector. The websites linked to these domains, purportedly offering financial apps and trading signals, falsely suggested affiliation with Ledger and were flagged for unauthorised financial activities by the UK’s Financial Conduct Authority (FCA). The panel ordered the transfer of both domains to Ledger, reaffirming its established rights. The following chart shows crypto wallet app downloads betweeen 2020 and 2024 (In Millions).

    Skechers Strengthens UK Presence with 'VERSA WING' Trademark as Global Footwear Shift

    On 12 March, Skechers filed for a new UK trademark, 'VERSA WING,' targeting the buoyant athletic footwear segment. This market has notably overtaken traditional city footwear, driven by changing consumer preferences and robust competition from global brands such as Nike, Adidas, and New Balance. Skechers, with global net sales reaching around nine billion dollars in 2024—a rise of nearly one billion dollars year-on-year—is capitalising on evolving shopping behaviours marked by the dramatic rise of eCommerce and innovative store formats, reshaping the retail landscape. Founded in 1992 and based in Manhattan Beach, California, Skechers primarily offers lifestyle footwear such as Memory Foam, BOBS charity line, and Relaxed Fit shoes, alongside its performance range including Skechers GOrun and GOwalk. Additionally, through licensing, it markets accessories such as watches and eyewear. In the competitive US market, Skechers enjoys strong brand recognition, with nearly 90% awareness and ranking eighth in popularity among apparel and footwear brands, as 37% of American consumers expressed positive sentiment towards the brand in a recent survey. The following tag cloud illustrates Skechers' trademark applications in the EU and UK in 2024.
