Melon Rebrands to Avoid Confusion With Big Bank

2020-12-18 01:28

Ethereum-based DeFi project Melon Protocol is rebranding to avoid confusion with New York-based banking services giant BNY Mellon.

In 2018, BNY Mellon sent a cease and desist letter to Melon Protocol over alleged trademark violations.

“When BNY Mellon got all hot and bothered over possible brand confusion, we realized this was the perfect opportunity to move the brand forward. The last thing we want is to be mistaken for some old tired finance brand,” Melon stated in a blog post.

Going forward, the project will be known as Enzyme Finance and be given a new logo. However, the cryptocurrency’s token ticker (MLN) and contract address will remain the same.

Melon’s rebranding move came right after the project formed a notable partnership with DeFi yield aggregator Rari Capital.

The team also said it is currently testing and auditing the code for a major protocol upgrade–Melon v2, which may be launched soon.

At the time of writing this author held Cosmos (ATOM).

From the moment our smart phones wake us up, to our watch tracking our morning run, every time we use public transport, every coffee we purchase with a bank card, every song skipped or liked, until we return to bed and let our sleep apps monitor our dreaming habits – all of these technologies are collecting data.
