As an important update to the Sui community, SUI Foundation need to address some troubling actions and misrepresentations from a project publicizing itself as “Sui Mermaid” or “Mermaid.”
The SUI Foundation can unequivocally state that it has never been and is not in any way affiliated with “Sui Mermaid”.
After discovering that this project falsely claims an affiliation with the Sui Foundation on various public forums, SUI Foundation attempted to communicate directly with them.
SUI Foundation request was twofold: (1) to cease using Sui’s brand assets for promoting “Sui Mermaid” platform, as this constitutes an infringement of the Sui trademark portfolio, and (2) to immediately discontinue portraying to the public or elsewhere that “Sui Mermaid” have any legitimate business connection to the Sui Foundation.
Further, SUI Foundation have become aware of “Sui Mermaid” making statements about their business that SUI Foundation have verified as untrue and which appear to be intentionally deceptive.
As a result, SUI Foundation ask everyone in the Sui ecosystem or elsewhere to avoid engaging with this project in any respect.
As necessary, SUI Foundation will reiterate this message and update the community on any further developments in their efforts to disassociate Sui from “Sui Mermaid”, which SUI Foundation deem harmful to the community.
