"Monero" is under attack by TrademarkFuckers.

I've got today the abuse.

I don't get any earning from moneroclub site and don't want to cover legal costs. Therefore the project will move to the new domain.

I find that very dangerous for Monero community. This trademark fucker can destroy any monero site.

BTW1, "monero" is esperanto word, how it is possible to register common words from dictionary?

BTW2, bitcoin TM is registered by community. Didn't someone from monero community happen to register trademark "monero"?
