BGIN BLOCKCHAIN LIMITED (("BGIN" or the "Company", NASDAQ:BGIN), a digital asset technology company with proprietary cryptocurrency mining technologies and a manufacturer of cryptocurrency mining hardware, today announced a favorable result in an intellectual property dispute concerning unauthorized use of its ICERIVER® trademark.

On March 4, 2026, a panel appointed by the World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) Arbitration and Mediation Center decided in favor of BGIN Trading Limited and BGIN EU Limited (BGIN's subsidiaries) in a case against Michal Beno (the "Respondent").

The WIPO panel ordered the transfer of the disputed domain name <iceriver.eu> from the Respondent to BGIN EU Limited. The panel found that the Respondent registered the domain name and activated the associated website targeting the ICERIVER brand of BGIN in an attempt to, among other things, impersonate BGIN, create confusion among Internet users as to the affiliation with BGIN, confuse and attract BGIN customers, and sell BGIN's products for commercial gain.

The Respondent's domain name and associated website falsely claimed to be "the official European distributor of ICERIVER ASIC Miners" and "the only official distributor for factory ICERIVER in EUROPE," despite having no authorized relationship with BGIN.

The domain name transfer will be implemented by a major European domain registry for Internet domain names.

BGIN designs and manufactures mining machines under its ICERIVER brand, which has established significant market recognition since the brand's launch in early 2023. BGIN will continue to advance brand protection, intellectual property management, and official channel governance across global markets in support of orderly market practices and user protection.

The Company reminds customers and partners to refer to BGIN's official communications and authorized channels for accurate information.
