Beijing, China, November 12, 2021 – AGM Group is aware of a lawsuit filed by Canaan on November 3, 2021, which names its affiliate HighSharp and Sichuan Yibimei Technology Co. was charged with patent infringement. Canaan requested that both companies cease infringing and pay RMB 90 millions for their economic loss and expenses.
This patent was originally filed by Canaan Technology, and it has been registered by China National Intellectual Property Administration. It is still legally valid today.
Canaan claimed that the patented process used to create cryptocurrency mining machines, which were manufactured and sold by HighSharp, was involved in the appeal. HighSharp was accused of infringing Canaan’s patent rights by applying an existing, legally protected patent.
HighSharp still has not responded to Canaan’s allegations.
