When looking over the Twitter conversations taking place these past few weeks, there seems to be a war of words going on between Andreas M. Antonopoulos and Uphold. Most people active in the world of Bitcoin and digital currency will be well aware of how Uphold was known as BitReserve until very recently.

Things started off when Antonopoulos publicly challenged Anthony Watson – the CEO of Uphold – to sue him for using the term “Internet of Money”. Not that there is anything wrong with that on paper, although a trademark filing was submitted for this term by Uphold Global Foundation Corporation back on September 10th 2015. However, it is equally important to note the trademark has been published for opposition on February 2, 2016.
