Web3 Domains, operators of a news publication about so-called web3 domains, have filed for the registration of the matching mark with the USPTO.
The application involves the mark WEB3 DOMAINS, filed for a large number of items, a small part of which is below:
Educational services, namely, providing classes, courses, webinars, seminars, conferences, and workshops in the fields of fitness and nutrition; Educational services, namely, providing classes, courses, webinars, seminars, conferences, and workshops in the fields of blockchain-based named-entity resolution, decentralized naming systems, blockchain identity, cryptocurrency, smart contracts, NFT-based naming systems, and use of blockchain technology for domain name and subdomain management; Educational services, namely, providing classes, courses, webinars, seminars, conferences, and workshops in the fields of blockchain-based named-entity resolution, decentralized naming systems, cryptocurrency, NFT-based naming systems, and use of blockchain technology for domain name and subdomain management; educational services, namely, conducting workshops and classes in the field of blockchain technology, decentralized naming systems, cryptocurrency, NFT-based naming systems, and domain name and subdomain management using blockchain technology; Educational services, namely, providing classes, courses, webinars, seminars, conferences, and workshops in the fields of online video games, computer games, electronic games, and multiplayer video games related to blockchain-based named-entity resolution, decentralized naming systems, and cryptocurrency; Educational services, namely, providing classes, courses, webinars, seminars, conferences, and workshops in the fields of blockchain technology, decentralized naming systems, cryptocurrency, NFT-based naming systems, and named-entity resolution; providing online forums and chat rooms for educational and entertainment purposes related to blockchain technology, decentralized naming systems, cryptocurrency, NFT-based naming systems, and named-entity resolution;
The application cites June 6, 2022 as the date of first use of the mark WEB3 DOMAINS in interstate commerce.
Registered in June 2021, the domain Web3Domains.com appears to have been parked with PPC ads until June 2022, before going live with content, matching the date in the mark’s application. It’s quite possible that the current registrant acquired the domain at the time. Oddly, the domain name existed as far back as in 2010 before dropping.
Time will tell if the mark will be approved for registration, or declined based on the possible generic use of the term “web3 domains”—an example from Cointelegraph from April 2022 demonstrates such use of the term.
