SatoshiLabs Prevails in Part as UKIPO Delivers Split Decision on ‘Find Satoshi Lab’ Trademark
In a closely watched dispute reflecting the sensitivity around cryptocurrency branding, SatoshiLabs Group a.s. has partially succeeded in its opposition to Find Satoshi Lab Ltd’s UK trademark application covering classes 9, 35, and 42. The UK Intellectual Property Office ruled that several of the applicant’s goods and services—chiefly those tied to software, digital wallets, SaaS, PaaS, and related technology solutions—posed a likelihood of confusion with SatoshiLabs’ earlier mark, particularly given their medium-to-high degree of similarity and the high inherent distinctiveness of the opponent’s brand for many consumers. However, the opposition faltered regarding more tangential goods, such as downloadable image files, VR headsets, wearable devices, and general business services, which were deemed too dissimilar to create confusion. The decision underscores the nuanced approach regulators are taking as digital and blockchain-related industries mature, balancing the protection of established players with space for new entrants. Following chart shows the number of UK trademark applications related to cryptocurrency for 2025.

Samsung Sharpens Brand Strategy with Galaxy S25 Launch and Trademark Victory
At its first Unpacked event of 2025 in San Jose, Samsung showcased its forward-looking ambitions by unveiling the Galaxy S25 series and debuting its Android XR-powered 'Project Moohan' headset. With minimal hardware changes, the new flagship devices lean heavily on AI integration—introducing features like multimodal agents, content generation tools, and deep Google Gemini support—to reposition the smartphone as a dynamic productivity and creativity engine. The Galaxy S25 Edge, with its minimalist dual-camera design and ultra-slim frame, further reflects Samsung’s drive toward streamlined innovation. Meanwhile, behind the scenes in Europe, Samsung also scored a significant legal win: the EUIPO Opposition Division upheld its challenge against a competing 'Samsung Galaxy' trademark filed by a third party. The ruling reinforced the high likelihood of consumer confusion and confirmed the contested mark’s rejection in its entirety. As Samsung reaffirms control over its brand while pushing AI-centred mobile experiences, its multi-front strategy positions it to maintain competitive edge in both the courtroom and the consumer market. Following visualisation shows detailed information on the opposed trademark.

Hugo Boss Launches US Trademark Opposition Blitz Targeting 'BOSS' Variants
In a move underscoring its brand protection strategy, Hugo Boss AG filed two formal oppositions on 17 June with the United States Patent and Trademark Office, challenging applications for the marks 'BOSS YOUTH LEAGUE' and 'BOSSBATH'. The German fashion giant contends that both filings exploit the distinctive 'BOSS' component—long associated with its brand identity—creating a likelihood of consumer confusion. 'BOSS YOUTH LEAGUE', covering an expansive range of educational, athletic, and coaching services, including youth mentoring and leadership training, is accused of trading on the brand equity of the Hugo Boss name. Simultaneously, 'BOSSBATH', a mark designated for a wide assortment of household goods, from wine glasses to pet feeders, is likewise challenged for allegedly leveraging the same keyword. Hugo Boss’s oppositions signal its zero-tolerance approach toward perceived encroachments on its trademark turf, as it aims to prevent dilution of its name across disparate commercial domains
