Bitcoin Latinum Sues Media Outlets Over Fraud Allegation Articles, But Lawsuits Face Legal Hurdles
-
Cryptocurrency firm Bitcoin Latinum sued Forbes and Poker.org journalists for writing about fraud lawsuits filed against the crypto company.
-
The articles described allegations made in the lawsuits, but Bitcoin Latinum claims the articles insinuated the allegations were factual and defamatory.
-
One lawsuit referenced the wrong article - the article cited never mentioned the fraud allegations that the lawsuit claims it did.
-
The lawsuit against the Poker.org journalist was likely filed after the statute of limitations expired.
-
Bitcoin Latinum's lawyer specializes in estate planning, not libel cases; the lawsuits contain questionable legal arguments.
