Floyd Mayweather and Basketball player paul Pierce also promoted the cryptocurrency Ethereum last month.
The main cause that has been revealed is all the three defendants have promoted misleadingly and sold the cryptocurrency named Ethereum.

Losing investments
The class of the people claims that the EthereumMax used a ‘pump and dump’ scheme used to inflate the price of an asset and then sell to the unwitting investors in terms of high profit.
The complaint that has been filed in the Central District Court of California has the words as
“Company’s Executive, collaborating with several celebrity promotors” made “false or misleading statement to investors about EthereumMax through social media advertisement and other promotional activities.”
In return, the defendant touted the ability of investors to make significant returns alleges, and said about resulting in the artificial increase in the price of the cryptocurrency.

The complaint also involves the former National Basketball Association (NBA) Mr. Pierce also promoted the EthereumMax and “widely posted” about the praising content for the platform of EthereumMax as the best platform to make the money and grow it in the fast method.
The EthereumMax Statement
The EthereumMax told in an interview given to BBC that the marketing and public relation efforts “are always from an awareness perspective and not encouraging to purchase- as the Kim K post was simply intended to raise awareness about the project and its utility,”
“We intend that our marketing and PR efforts encourage people to reach our project… before making any decision,” Ethereum told in an interview.
“This approach takes a lot of time, energy, and resources is in stark contrast to the quick pump and dump schemes out there.”
Steve Gentile, who has been named as the co-founder member of Ethereum and also the head of the project in the complaint filed in court, told the BBC about the mater as
“The deceptive narrative associated with the recent allegations is riddled with misinformation about the EthereumMax project,”
