Prior NFT events showcasing Cristiano Ronaldo included non-digital benefits, such as a premium experience in which holders were extended an invitation to engage in football with the legendary player himself as a promotional initiative by Binance.
In November 2023, Cointelegraph reported that a class action lawsuit had been filed against the football sensation in a United States district court in Florida regarding his prior involvement in NFT collection sales with Binance.
According to the plaintiffs in the lawsuit, "Ronaldo coordination-linked the promotion, assistance, and/or active participation in the offer and sale of unregistered securities." Ronaldo should have been aware that Binance was engaged in such activities.
The lawsuit against Cristiano Renaldo originated from Binance's prior legal disputes, which culminated in the conviction of founder Changpeng "CZ" Zhao for facilitating fraudulent activities in the United States. In April 2024, he received a four-month detention sentence for his alleged involvement in a money laundering scheme.
