Unicoin Sues Over UNI Trademark Rights Dispute with FirstTransparentBusiness

Unicoin has filed a lawsuit against FirstTransparentBusiness Inc., the company behind the UNICOIN token, over a trademark dispute. The Unicoin Uniswap lawsuit was filed on September 8, 2026, in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York.

The plaintiff wants a judge to declare that its branding does not infringe, dilute, or otherwise violate any mark held by the defendant. The filing also asks the court to cancel a federal registration covering the term 'UNI.'

According to court records, the defendant's counsel sent three separate letters demanding that the plaintiff stop using its name, hand over its domains, and pay legal costs. However, the plaintiff's counsel responded, declining all demands.
