The dismissal comes after Kim Kardashian paid over $1 million in October to settle with the SEC over her promotion of EthereumMax.
A federal judge dismissed a proposed class action lawsuit by investors against the founders of a cryptocurrency, as well as celebrity endorsers Kim Kardashian and Floyd Mayweather Jr.
Investors who bought EMAX tokens alleged they had suffered losses after taking the word of the celebrity influencers about the value of the crypto. The suit claims the defendants engaged in a conspiracy to artificially inflate the value of the EMAX tokens. The judge found that the plaintiffs' allegations were insufficiently backed, especially "given the heightened pleading standards" for fraud claims, according to his ruling in U.S. District Court in Los Angeles.
