Following the announcement, Marc Kaufman, Co-Founder of the Blockchain IP Council, said;

“Patent filings related to blockchain technology have increased tremendously over the past several years. Many of these patents are likely to end up in the hands of patent assertion entities, sometimes referred to as ‘patent trolls.’ LOT provides a mechanism whereby members are substantially protected from patent assertions by patent assertion entities.  Peer Mountain’s membership in LOT is a significant step in expanding the advantages of LOT to players in blockchain eco systems.”

This is an additional element of protection for the Peer Mountain Protocol as the Peerchain patent cannot be utilized by any entity looking to patent hoard. Peer Mountain now are fully aligned with over 250 companies in fighting patent trolls and share protection of their patents through the LOT Network.

“We’re honored to join the LOT Network and share in the fight against patent trolls. As the Peerchain protocol is patent pending, this is a great way to ensure that the patent would remain beneficial for the Peer Mountain community and ecosystem.” Jed Grant, CEO at Peer Mountain.
