Law firm says it’s pursuing potential legal action against Pump.fun

Only 0.4% of the 14 million crypto wallets that have interacted with Pump.fun have made a profit of over $10,000 — indicating that Burwick’s client base may be in the millions.

A US crypto law firm says it is looking to launch legal action on behalf of investors who have suffered losses due to the Solana memecoin launchpad Pump.fun.

“Today, Burwick Law is announcing publicly that we are pursuing legal action on behalf of investors in pumpdotfun memecoins,” said Burwick Law in a Jan. 15 post on X.

Burwick said the move followed “months” of working with everyday people who lost “significant amounts of money” to memecoins, rug pulls, and unfulfilled promises on platforms like Pump.fun.

Binance to face class action after US Supreme Court denies petition for review

The Supreme Court has denied a petition to review a lower court decision that securities laws applied to Binance.

The US Supreme Court has declined to hear an appeal from crypto exchange Binance and its founder, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, regarding a class-action lawsuit by investors who alleged the exchange illegally sold unregistered tokens that lost significant value. 

On Jan. 13, the Supreme Court of the United States denied a petition to review a lower court ruling that US securities laws applied to the crypto exchange, even though it doesn’t have a physical headquarters in America. 

In March, a lower court ruled the case could proceed because token purchases were finalized in the US and transactions took place on US servers, despite Binance not being an American company.

US Supreme Court bucks Nvidia’s appeal to dismiss crypto class suit

Nvidia has lost a Supreme Court challenge to try stop an investor-led lawsuit that says it understated its GPU sales to crypto miners.

Nvidia will have to face a class-action suit alleging it misled investors about the volume of sales to crypto miners after the United States Supreme Court dismissed the chip maker’s appeal to throw it out.

The justices issued a single-line order dismissing Nvdia’s appeal on Dec. 11, providing no explanation. It now reinstates an appellate court’s decision that revived the suit, which a California district court initially dismissed in March 2021.

Nvidia was looking to overturn the Ninth Circuit appeals court ruling from last August that revived a 2018 suit from a group of Nvidia shareholders claiming the firm hid over $1 billion in GPU sales made to crypto miners and that CEO Jensen Huang downplayed the volume of sales to the industry.
