I ask because of copyright. Thank you I think you can use it, you can find out when you buy the domain in a domain provider website will be in the know whether you can use the domain or not .. there is no slaah if you mencabanya, karna also have many who use the domain with the addition the name in front of or behind the domain name
Offcourse, you can use bitcoin in your domain name. There is no copyright issue in that. Feel free to use it until the domain name is available.
I looked at dozens of domain names yesterday containing bitcoin and altcoin names, they are all taken, I do not think it is copyright, can not sue hundreds of domains if they already own the copyright.

I ask because of copyright. Thank you Shouldn't be a problem as there seems to be no trademark or copyright limitations involved. You may want to check with other domainers in domain forums like namepros.com
I don't think any copyrights are placed for that name.
To be on a safe side go with bit***,bitsomething etc...it is understandable that it is crypto related

In my opinion...Yes! You can buy this type domain. I've seen lots of people using this type domain and they did not encounter any problems or infringement of copyright and make sure that no one to sue them.
Here are some examples: bitcointalk, bitcoinnews, bitcoin.com, bitcoin.org, bitcoin.co.id...
Just do it! Wish you success!

Bitcoin does not belong to anyone nor does the word belong to anyone.
There are hundreds of websites with the word bitcoin and there have been no issues at all. However you need to be careful at the same time that the other part which you are using alongside bitcoin is not trademarked either.

As far as I know the word "bitcoin" itself isn't trademarked in any way meaning that you are free to use it.
This also seems to be supported by the bitcoin foundation (See: http://bitcoinfoundation.org/the-bitcoin-foundations-view-and-policy-on-trademarking-bitcoin/)

I have already seen similar sites sporting the word Bitcoin and adding something to make it unique and acceptable. I am referring to sites like bitcoinmagazine.com, buybitcoin.com.ph, bitcoin.co.id, and others. I am not expert on domain but I think that compared to other domain name, Bitcoin is not a very commercialized one and so they allow people to add Bitcoin to any domain. In this sense, the word bitcoin is almost becoming like a generic name which anybody can use in addition to other letters or words for registration purposes.
However, I am advising you to make more research and maybe talk to someone who is already a domain expert so you won't experience any possible legal entanglement later, especially if your site will already be on the top of the Google search. Good luck on your endeavor.

Someone has finally said that. Been wondering the same thing for years. Looking forward to the upcoming responses on this thread.
