Overview
- On Oct. 30, 2025, U.S. District Judge Alan Albright granted Paul’s motion to dismiss, affirming an earlier magistrate ruling.
- The decision throws out all counts across 27 claims, with the court finding no legally sufficient causal link to Paul or misleading statements attributable to him.
- The case centered on CryptoZoo, a 2021 NFT game whose promised play‑to‑earn features never materialized, prompting a 2023 investor lawsuit.
- The ruling resolves the class action against Paul but does not address his previously announced NFT buyback plan, which remains under scrutiny for limited updates.
- Separate disputes continue, including Paul’s lawsuit against developers Eduardo Ibanez and Jake Greenbaum and his defamation case involving YouTuber Coffeezilla.
