Oh, the drama! The glorious, hilarious drama! 😂 YouTuber Logan Paul, the maestro of mayhem, can’t just wiggle out of his CryptoZoo fiasco by pointing fingers at his co-founders, says a judge with a straight face (and probably a hidden smirk). 🦖✨
Magistrate Judge Ronald Griffin, the wise wizard of the courtroom, dropped the hammer on Tuesday in Austin, Texas, telling Paul, “Nope, no blame-shifting shenanigans here!” 🚫👉 He urged the court to deny Paul’s desperate bid for a default judgment against CryptoZoo co-founders Eduardo Ibanez and Jake Greenbaum. Why? Because, as the judge so eloquently put it, “It’d be a circus of inconsistent judgments!” 🎪⚖️
Meanwhile, a bunch of CryptoZoo NFT buyers (yes, the ones who thought buying pixelated animals was a good idea 🐒💸) sued Paul and his crew in 2023, claiming the whole thing was a “rug pull.” 🪨🚪 Paul, not one to take things lying down, countered in 2024, saying, “Hey, those guys conned *me*!” 🤡🔍
CryptoZoo, the project that promised NFTs, tokens, and a blockchain game (that never happened), launched in 2021 with all the fanfare of a three-ring circus. 🌟🎡 But the game? Still MIA. 🕳️
Judge: Paul’s Blame Game Could Crash the Whole Circus!
Judge Griffin, clearly not here for Paul’s theatrics, said, “If you blame Ibanez and Greenbaum, the whole lawsuit might collapse faster than a house of cards in a windstorm!” 🏠💨 He added, “This case is about figuring out if everyone involved was up to no good. You can’t just pin it all on two guys who aren’t even showing up!” 👻⚖️
Paul’s move? Only targeting his co-founders, not the NFT buyers. But the judge wasn’t buying it: “No reduced risk of inconsistent judgments here, buddy. Everyone’s in the same boat, and it’s sinking!” 🚣♂️💦
Paul vs. Coffeezilla: The YouTuber Showdown!
In a side quest worthy of a sitcom, Paul sued YouTuber Stephen Findeisen (aka “Coffeezilla”) in June 2024 for calling CryptoZoo a scam. ☕️💥 A judge said, “Sure, let’s see this drama unfold!” Meanwhile, Findeisen wants his case merged with the NFT buyers’ lawsuit, but Paul’s like, “Nah, let’s keep the chaos separate!” 🌀🚫
CryptoZoo Buyers Get Their Ether Back (Sort Of)
In a twist that’s almost heartwarming (if not for the whole scam thing), Paul set aside $2.3 million in 2024 to refund CryptoZoo buyers. The catch? They had to promise not to sue. 🤝💰 Buyers got 0.1 Ether back, the same amount they paid in 2021. Generous? Or just damage control? 🤔💸
