A company called Malikie Innovations, which bought a bunch of patents from BlackBerry last year, is now suing Bitcoin mining giants Marathon Digital and Core Scientific. They're claiming these miners are using encryption tech that Malikie now owns. 🤯
Could this affect Bitcoin users? Probably not individuals, but these lawsuits could seriously hurt the big mining operations. If Malikie wins, they could get royalties and potentially even bankrupt some miners! 😬
This could even threaten the Bitcoin network's security if Malikie goes after everyone. Some experts think they might just want to collect fees until the patents expire, but who knows? 🤔
It's not the first time Bitcoin's faced legal challenges. Let's see how this plays out!
