LOL check out their example of use in commerce: http://tdr.uspto.gov/jsp/DocumentViewPage.jsp?85353491/SPE20110625085727/Specimen/1/22-Jun-2011/sn/false#p=1

A fucking letter wherein they sell one bitcoin for $17.50.  I spoke to my IP attorney and he said that the application will be rejected since it has not yet been granted and a simple google search will prove that the filer is an idiot.  There is only a filing date on this and no registration date which means it has not yet been issued.  They have filed for International class 036 which is financial services and completely in the public domain.

The only exception to the above is if Satoshi is secretly the filer in which case good for him.  I highly doubt it though.

Keep sending those protests and this will not be granted.
