history will not be kind to you if you donβt
While I sympathize with the argument that trademark law requires enforcement, Blockclock is such a generic name that a trademark should have never been issued. Equally, displaying Bitcoin data like block height on a screen is an obvious idea that certainly doesn't deserve protection.
Notably, the term "btcclock" was coined 7 years ago by rcassata, for essentially the same idea: https://github.com/eternitywall/btcclock
There's nothing wrong with another project choosing to use that generic name for yet another implementation of the same idea. Coinkite should do the right thing here and withdraw their takedown.
