Brotocolocol Foundation起诉UNISWAP实验室以侵犯其CPAMM专利

该案子称，UNISWAP使用了Bancor未经授权而开发的专利分散交易所（DEX）技术。

Bprotocol Basis and LocalCoin have reportedly filed a lawsuit in New York federal court against Uniswap Labs, Inc., claiming that the decentralized exchange (DEX) used patented decentralized exchange technology developed by Bancor without authorization.

据报道，Brotocol的基础和地方币已在纽约联邦法院针对Uniswap Labs，Inc。提起诉讼，声称该分散的交易所（DEX）使用了由Bancor开发的专利分散交换技术未经授权而开发的。

The lawsuit, which was filed on Tuesday, alleges that Uniswap's platform operates using a constant product automated market maker (CPAMM) structure that was created by Bancor in 2016 and secured with a provisional patent in early 2017.

该诉讼于周二提起，称Uniswap的平台使用持续的产品自动化营销商（CPAMM）结构运行，该结构是由Bancor于2016年创建的，并在2017年初获得了临时专利。

According to Bprotocol, this model, which replaces order books and makes automated trading a key feature of DEXs today, was designed and introduced by Bprotocol and LocalCoin with the Bancor Protocol.

根据Brotocol的说法，该模型取代了订单书籍并使自动交易成为当今DEX的关键功能，它是由Brotocol和Localcoin使用Bancor协议设计和介绍的。

"This design, which forms the basis of the Bprotocol Foundation's patent claim, is foundational to how the Uniswap protocol performs token swaps, and the plaintiffs maintain that Uniswap replicated these mechanisms without seeking a license or providing attribution," the release reads.

“这种设计构成了Brotocol Foundation的专利主张的基础，是基本的基础，是UNISWAP协议如何执行令牌掉期的基础，并且原告坚持认为，UNISWAP在没有寻求许可或提供归属的情况下复制了这些机制，”该版本读取。

This lawsuit could be a major legal challenge for the DeFi community. It is alleged that Uniswap has been infringing on Bprotocol's patent rights for several years by operating its exchange using patented technology without a license.

对于Defi社区而言，这项诉讼可能是一个重大的法律挑战。据称，几年来使用专利技术在没有许可证的情况下运营其交易所，因此Uniswap一直侵犯了Brotocol的专利权。

The lawsuit, which was filed in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of New York, claims that the infringement began when the provisional patent application was filed in early 2017 and continues to this day.

该诉讼是在纽约南部地区的美国地方法院提起的，声称侵权是在2017年初提出的临时专利申请时开始的，一直持续到今天。

According to the plaintiffs, Bprotocol and LocalCoin designed and introduced the Bancor Protocol, which brought CPAMM trading to decentralized finance.

根据原告，Brotocol和LocalCoin设计和介绍了Bancor协议，这将CPAMM交易带入了分散的财务。

"This design, which forms the basis of the Bprotocol Basis's patent claim, is foundational to how the Uniswap protocol performs token swaps, and the plaintiffs maintain that Uniswap replicated these mechanisms without seeking a license or providing attribution," the release explains.

该版本解释说：“这种设计构成了Brotocol基础专利主张的基础，是基本的基础，是基本的UNISWAP协议如何执行令牌掉期，并且原告坚持认为，uniswap在没有寻求许可或提供归因的情况下复制了这些机制。”

The plaintiffs are seeking damages from Uniswap for the unlicensed use of the CPAMM model, which they claim allowed the exchange to gain a major competitive edge within the DeFi market.

原告正在寻求uniswap的损害赔偿，以无执照的使用CPAMM模型，他们声称该模型允许交易所在Defi市场内获得主要的竞争优势。

"This benefit was developed without rendering proper credit or payment to the founders of the technology or their assigned entity, LocalCoin Capital, Inc.," the release adds.

该新闻稿补充说：“这项收益是开发的，而没有提供适当的信贷或向技术的创始人或其指定的实体Localcoin Capital，Inc。付款。”

The lawsuit alleges that Uniswap's ability to quickly rise to prominence within the DeFi market was due in part to its implementation of patented features without a licensing agreement.

该诉讼称，UNISWAP在Defi市场内迅速崛起的能力部分是由于其未经许可协议实施了专利功能。

According to the plaintiffs, Uniswap's success has come at the expense of Bancor, which struggled to grow and succeed within the DEX market despite being the original innovator.

根据原告的说法，UNISWAP的成功却以牺牲Bancor为代价，尽管这是最初的创新者，但尽管如此，它还是在DEX市场上努力发展并取得成功。

"The lawsuit aims to achieve justice for the plaintiffs, whose invention and initiative were instrumental in advancing blockchain technology and liquidity solutions," the release concludes.

该新闻稿总结说：“该诉讼旨在为原告实现正义，其发明和主动性在推进区块链技术和流动性解决方案方面发挥了作用。”

The lawsuit seeks an injunction to prevent further infringement of the patent and an award of damages to compensate the plaintiffs for the economic losses they suffered as a result of Uniswap's alleged actions.

该诉讼寻求一项禁令，以防止进一步侵犯该专利，并裁定赔偿赔偿，以补偿原告因Uniswap所谓的行动而遭受的经济损失。

The plaintiffs argue that they are pursuing this legal action to defend the importance of intellectual property in the development of blockchain technology.

原告辩称，他们正在采取这项法律行动来捍卫知识产权在开发区块技术中的重要性。

"The filing is unusual in this domain as it asserts patent rights in an area largely focused on open-source protocols," the release notes.

该释放指出：“在该领域中，该文件在主要集中于开源协议的领域中主张专利权利，因此该申请是不寻常的。”

This lawsuit could have significant implications for the future of decentralized finance, as it raises questions about the ownership and transferability of intellectual property in the blockchain space.

该诉讼可能会对分散财务的未来产生重大影响，因为它提出了有关区块链领域知识产权的所有权和可转让性的疑问。

Uniswap Labs responded by saying it would be dismissing the lawsuit, which it claims is meritless.

Uniswap Labs回应说，它将驳回该诉讼，其声称这是有用的。

"The lawsuit arises from a provisional patent application filed in 2017 for a foundational constant product formula used in Uniswap’s protocol, which has been open-source and publicly accessible since launch," Uniswap Labs said in a statement.

Uniswap Labs在一份声明中说：“该诉讼源于2017年针对Uniswap协议中使用的基础恒定产品公式提交的临时专利申请，该公式是自推出以来一直是开源的，并且可以公开访问。”

"This lawsuit will not interfere with our usual operations or hot topics, such as the launch of the Uniswap X proposal or the pending vote on the Uniswap Foundation's proposed closure."

“这项诉讼不会干扰我们通常的运营或热门话题，例如启动Uniswap X提案或对Uniswap基金会提议关闭的未决投票。”

The firm added that it would continue to innovate and build in DeFi.

该公司补充说，它将继续进行创新和建造。

"Uniswap is committed to transparency and innovation in decentralized finance," the statement concluded.

声明总结说：“ Uniswap致力于分散财务的透明度和创新。”

Uniswap Foundation also stated it would be supporting the legal defense and expressed its commitment to open-source development in decentralized finance.

UNISWAP基金会还表示，它将支持法律辩护，并表示其致力于分散财务的开源发展的承诺。

"We can confirm again that the CPAMM is a common legal mechanism that can be used without breaking any patents or engaging in any unlawful activity," the firm said in a statement.

该公司在一份声明中说：“我们可以再次确认CPAMM是一种常见的法律机制，可以在不违反任何专利或从事任何非法活动的情况下使用。”

"We plan to continue with our development work even as we manage this legal matter."

“即使我们管理这一法律问题，我们也计划继续进行开发工作。”
