Melania Trump wird als „Schaufensterdekoration“ bei aufwändigem Memecoin-Betrug und bei der Einreichung gerichtlicher Ansprüche eingesetzt

*I don’t care, do you?*

>Melania Trump Used as’Window-Dressing‘ in Elaborate Memecoin Fraud, Legal Filing Claims The first lady of the United States became a pawn in an intricate memecoin scam that resulted in millions of dollars in losses, crypto investors have alleged. A cryptocurrency promoted in January by US first lady Melania Trump was part of a sophisticated fraud that „leveraged celebrity association and’borrowed fame‘ to sell legitimacy to unsuspecting investors,“ a new legal filing has alleged. In April, crypto investors brought a federal class action lawsuit against Benjamin Chow, cofounder of crypto exchange Meteora, and Hayden Davis, cofounder of crypto venture capital firm Kelsier Labs, among other defendants, accusing them of a multimillion-dollar fraud involving a single memecoin, $M3M3. Later, the plaintiffs filed an amended complaint, expanding the allegations to include racketeering activity. They claimed the pair had colluded to rig the market for $LIBRA, a coin promoted by Javier Milei, president of Argentina, which collapsed in value shortly after launch.

So apparently nothing filed against Melania / Trump directly. I didn’t see the whole article since it was paywalled, but kinda weird that they don’t even name who filed it.

Looks like it’s a guy named Jonathan Clarke along with Rodrigo Ferreira Da Cruz Vogt, and when he first filed it, he filed it incorrectly lol.

Not saying that all the Trump crypto stuff is okay, but it’s sorta clickbait too. Kind of interesting at least.

>“Publicly, M3M3 was presented as a Meteora project,” the suit reads. “In reality, M3M3 was a collaboration between Meteora and Chow, on the one hand, and defendant Kelsier, a venture capital firm run by the Davis defendants (a father and two sons),” adding that the defendants concealed their involvement.“
