Drake's Encrypted Promotion Scandal: How a Star Becomes a Meme Unintentionally
Canadian rapper Drake finds himself at the center of a legal storm. A RICO class-action lawsuit has been filed in the Eastern Virginia federal court, highlighting controversial practices in the blockchain-based online casino industry.
Main Allegations
The case accuses Drake and influential streamer Adin Ross of their alleged roles in promoting a crypto casino platform. According to the plaintiffs, both personalities allegedly abused the “tip” system to hide suspicious financial flows. These concealed transactions reportedly served to fund musical botting operations, thereby violating the federal RICO law against racketeering (RICO).
A Questionable Business Model
The class action criticizes a seemingly legitimate operation: this platform presents itself as a “social casino” to bypass strict U.S. regulations on online gambling. Users who initiated the complaint claim that it is actually an illegal gambling operation in disguise.
Financial and Reputational Stakes
The plaintiffs are seeking a minimum compensation of $5 million. For Drake, this case is much more than a legal setback: it turns his commercial involvement into a subject of memes and viral criticism on social media. The incident raises broader questions about the responsibility of celebrities in promoting decentralized and potentially unregulated financial products.
