Shaquille O’Neal Settling FTX Class Action Lawsuit for $1.8M

  • Shaquille O'Neal has reached a $1.8 million settlement to resolve a lawsuit accusing him of promoting the now-defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX.
  • The suit, launched in November 2022 by investor Edwin Garrison, accused O'Neal and others of misleading investors by endorsing FTX as a trustworthy investment.
  • FTX, once the third-largest exchange founded by Sam Bankman-Fried, collapsed with billions in losses and faced investigations for allegedly misusing depositor funds without approval.
  • A Florida federal court filing disclosed the settlement includes a broad release for O'Neal, excludes reimbursement from the FTX estate, and covers all legal and investor payouts pending court approval.
  • The settlement represents a key step toward resolving legal claims linked to FTX's collapse, while similar cases against other celebrities were mostly dismissed with opportunities to re-plead claims.
