JIMMY FALLON’S CRYPTO TROUBLE AFTER TALK SHOW HOST PROMOTED NFTs ON ‘TONIGHT SHOW’ WITHOUT DISCLOSING HIS OWN FINANCIAL STAKE

Along with Fallon's production firm, Election Hot Dog, other famous people were named as defendants, including Madonna, Paris Hilton, Justin Bieber, Kevin Hart, Stephen Curry, Serena Williams, and others.

Jimmy Fallon is one of the famous people who is being sued for allegedly pushing Bored Ape Yacht Club NFTs without declaring his own financial position, and the crypto-catastrophe is far from done. According to RadarOnline.com, the legal drama involving Fallon and other celebrities caught his network’s interest after allegations that A-list celebrities sold the non-fungible tokens without disclosing their stake in the business that created them, Yuga Labs. The campaign persuaded investors to purchase BAYC NFTs.
