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. for patent infringement. Canaan has requested both companies halt their infringing practice and compensate for economic losses and expenses to the tune of RMB 90 million.
The patent in question was filed by Canaan Technology and registered by the China National Intellectual Property Administration and remains legally valid to this day.
In the appeal, Canaan alleged that cryptocurrency mining machines designed and manufactured by HighSharp and distributed by Yimbimei had involved patented processes held by the company. HighSharp is said to have applied existing and legally protected patent without obtaining permission from Canaan, thereby infringing on its patent rights.
