Steve Aoki and DraftKings co-founder Matthew Kalish have moved to dismiss a proposed class action accusing them of promoting Metazoo nonfungible tokens (NFTs) without disclosing compensation. The defendants contend that the complaint does not allege any wrongdoing and asks the court to toss the suit. The action was filed by Evan Berger of Evan Berger Law PA, who alleges fraud in promoting Metazoo NFTs.
The motion argues that the plaintiffs’ allegations regarding Metazoo NFTs lack evidence of wrongdoing or disclosed compensation. In their filing, the defendants emphasize that the complaint fails to show any misconduct and requests dismissal on that basis.
If granted, the dismissal would conclude the matter without a finding of liability. It underscores ongoing scrutiny of NFT endorsements and disclosure practices in crypto marketing.
