HUMBL issued US patent for blockchain payments technology
The company’s CEO described getting a blockchain patent in the US as “a very challenging process.”
Blockchain firm HUMBL recently announced that the United States Patent and Trademark Office (USPTO) formally issued a patent for the company’s blockchain technology.
The patent was issued on Oct. 15 for HUMBL’s nebulously titled “System and Method for Transferring Currency Using Blockchain.”
While this isn’t the first company to receive a US patent for blockchain-related technology, the time frame surrounding the patent’s approval and issuance highlights one of the regulatory difficulties faced by small businesses in the blockchain and cryptocurrency industries.
