Overview
- New filings include a Missouri class action in Jackson County Circuit Court on October 27 and a separate case lodged October 30 in New Mexico’s Second Judicial District Court.
- Both complaints claim Stake.us is a virtual clone of Stake.com that bundles nonredeemable Gold Coins with redeemable Stake Cash to enable real-money gambling.
- The suits allege Drake and Adin Ross were paid millions, sometimes wagered Stake-provided “house money,” and promoted the platform to teens and other vulnerable users.
- Plaintiffs seek recovery of gambling losses, punitive damages, attorneys’ fees, disgorgement of profits, and court orders to halt the alleged practices.
- Stake says it has not been served and will vigorously defend the claims, Ross dismissed the allegations on a livestream, and Drake has not issued a substantive response.
