Title: Judge Dismisses Most Charges Against FTX's Celebrity Boosters

Link: https://yro.slashdot.org/story/25/05/08/17262...

A Florida federal judge has dismissed the majority of claims against
celebrities who endorsed Sam Bankman-Fried's now-collapsed cryptocurrency
exchange FTX. Judge K. Michael Moore ruled that investors failed to
demonstrate the high-profile endorsers -- including Tom Brady, Gisele
Bundchen, Kevin O'Leary, Larry David, Shohei Ohtani, and Stephen Curry --
knew about FTX's fraudulent activities. In his ruling, Moore wrote that while
the celebrity endorsers may have been "uninformed, negligent, or even
reckless," plaintiffs didn't adequately establish that defendants had
"knowledge of FTX's fraud" or "the requisite intent to deceive and defraud
investors."
