@CryptoCloaks @Syn_Division You say that yet you still sell Bitaxes. Seems like you are the sell out, hypocrite and grifter.

@GekkoScienceLLC @nerdminerstore @solo_mining Seems like you have 0 knowledge about how things work and what the difference is between a trademark and a copyleft license.
Keep making noise

@nerdminerstore @solo_mining I wondered about that. At least you're willing to stand up and denounce their affiliation, and hopefully file to regain your right... unlike that one brand who we all know dang well allowed this to happen.
English
Why would @solo_mining register a trademark they had nothing to do with and then block us the moment we asked what was going on? WTF 😂
Nerdminerstore.com@nerdminerstore
Hey @solo_mining why would you file a trademark for „Nerdminer“ which is obviously our brand?!

@skot9000 @solo_mining @BitMaker_ Yes he did. I wonder if Rodger knows that someone is trying to steal it.

The EUIPO register shows that Bolt Engineering GmbH, the company behind Solomining, has already secured EU trademark registration no. 019206471 for the word mark "BITAXE". It has also filed further applications for the Bitaxe logo, Nerdaxe, and even Nerdminer. This makes clear that the issue goes far beyond a single complaint. It is about taking control of key names and branding around an open-source project. #details/owners/2434107" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">euipo.europa.eu/eSearch/#detai…

@nerdminerstore @skot9000 @solo_mining The brand never belonged to anyone, not even to me, even though I created the project. Some of you never understood that it wasn’t your brand, and others don’t have the right to use it to gain power over other companies.
This way of behaving undermines the open-source spirit
English
@Bitaxeshop What you missed is that you used company names and a contact phone numbers that didn’t exist prior and your company is only register since this year.
Also when you believe that Bolt is trying to push competitors out of the market why hasn’t he done so with other companies?

Today, Google notified us that Bitaxe.de was targeted by a counterfeit complaint initiated by Solomining.de.
Just a few days earlier, Solomining had already filed a copyright complaint with our hosting provider. Now they have escalated to counterfeit allegations as well. At no point did they contact us directly. Everything was done behind the scenes.
This is not an isolated dispute. It is a pattern.
Solomining has also quietly filed trademark applications for Bitaxe, Nerdaxe, the Bitaxe logo, and other related names. We will share the registration links below.
At this point, it should be clear that this is not about protecting the Bitaxe brand from Chinese sellers. We appear to be the only seller being targeted. In our view, this is part of a broader attempt to hijack the Bitaxe project in Europe and use complaints, takedown efforts, and control over names tied to an open-source project for commercial advantage while pushing legitimate competitors out.
Bitaxe.de was the first Bitaxe seller in Germany, long before others entered the market. We sell genuine hardware based on the open-source Bitaxe ecosystem and have supported this space from the very beginning. We follow the same rules as everyone else. From our perspective, the only reason to target us is to eliminate the strongest competitor.
We believe it is fair to ask why no one from the OSMU community has publicly commented on this so far, especially when so many sellers support OSMU through donations for every Bitaxe sold. In a community built on openness, this raises difficult but necessary questions: is OSMU aware that Solomining appears to be moving to take control of the project trademark behind the scenes, and if so, why has no one publicly pushed back?

How to protect your scummy shit while having the audacity to tell people they need to buy from you because your just greedy AF
GekkoScience 🇺🇸@GekkoScienceLLC
The open-source vs closed-source war of the last 3ish years is just a scummy marketing tactic. It's not real. You have always had the right to take apart proprietary tools or content to find out how they work & modify them to your personal needs. Your curiosity is important and inalienable. * Copyright and Trademark licenses only exist to protect the creators/owners right to be Compensated for their work and defend the quality or representation of their brand. Opposite of those protections is not open-source, which maintains private copyright ownership, but when a work enters the Public Domain. Public Domain works forfeit their license and related control. Neither is better than the other but they are Different. If a work is not given to the Public Domain then you, the general public, do Not own and control it. There are legal and personal pros & cons to each one, and it's fine to have personal preferences... But lying to your audience that there's a moral imperative to harass other builders or to buy through that 1 license is an outright predatory money grab.
English
@GekkoScienceLLC Violating a written open source license and telling people that’s okay is unethical behavior
English
To those who aren't aware:
Closed-Source works require permissions from the original copyright or trademark owner(s) to modify or reproduce *For Profit.*
Open-Source works do not require permissions from the original copyright or trademark owner(s) to modify or reproduce *For Profit.*
Neither Open-Source or Closed-Source licensing can keep you from fully accessing or modifying the files or hardwares you bought, because the subject in question belongs to you.
"For Profit," are the key words.
If a license owner/creator reaches out to say 'hey you can't modify or replicate these works for sale or distribution,' then they are exercising a closed-source licensing protection.

Falsifying the fact that open source ≠ free labor. Open source does have the right to be protected if people like you are violating licenses
GekkoScience 🇺🇸@GekkoScienceLLC
What an interesting list of closed-source licensing protections or "violations" claimed and enacted by BitAxe. Open-source works don't have these protections. Bitaxe.de is also a local competitor to Janis, the EU BitAxe representative listed below:

If that would be the case, why are shops like @PowerMiningFarm @BitronicsStore and others are not affected? A store that is using fake information on their website is now crying and all are jumping on that train.
Sounds like a narrative. Also what should @skot9000 know about this
Nerdminerstore.com@nerdminerstore
It appears that @solo_mining is trying to claim exclusive rights to the name “Bitaxe” and push all sellers into a licensing scheme. Can you clarify what’s happening here, @skot?

@CryptoCloaks Why don’t you tell your followers that you got your so called scammed money back but yet did not repay your customers. You’re a scammer imo and not people that offered you free labor. Fuck you

Can confirm. Also CKPool wasn't involved in scamming hardware resellers and forced to refund the sats. Over $100,000 was returned to builders from these scammers.
Altair Technology® ⛏️@altair_tech
At ~45 PH/s, Public Pool is statistically expected to find a block every 5 months. It’s been running for over 2 years, yet the public instance has still found no blocks. Solo CKPool, on the other hand, consistently delivers results: 16 solo blocks in 2025 alone, many won by regular hobbyist miners with small setups. The Bitcoin network is secured by miners actually finding and building on blocks. A pool that does not contribute to block production secures nothing and pays out nothing. For most small miners doing lottery-style solo mining: CKPool is the better choice.
