Devine is also “not licensed as an investment advisor or broker-dealer in any jurisdiction.” The final statement reads:“The ad is not intended for distribution in the United States (including its territories or possessions) or to any U.S. person.”


Crypto companies have previously partnered with celebrities for promotion with mixed results. The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission recently filed suit against prominent celebrities such as Lindsay Lohan, YouTuber Jake Paul and singer Akon for their alleged role in promoting Tron ecosystem tokens without proper disclosures. 


Hollywood icon Matt Damon has been mocked for his appearance in Crypto.com’s infamous “Fortune Favors the Brave” ad that premiered right at the inception of the ongoing cryptocurrency bear market. Meanwhile, Portuguese soccer superstar Cristiano Ronaldo signed a multiyear nonfungible token partnership with Binance last June. His rival, Argentine football champion Lionel Messi, currently serves as the brand ambassador of Bitget.
