Cristiano Ronaldo reveals his fourth NFT collection via Binance, defying a $1 billion lawsuit.

Portuguese football icon Cristiano Ronaldo has unveiled his fourth non-fungible token (NFT) collection in collaboration with Binance. The upcoming collection, which will be available on the Binance NFT Marketplace starting from 29 May, will pay tribute to Ronaldo’s illustrious career and showcase memorable moments from his journey.
In a blog post by Binance, Ronaldo mentioned that the exact number of NFTs in the collection will remain undisclosed until the launch, and there has been no mention of the pricing yet. However, the post did clarify that the price will be the same for all “Normal NFTs,” while the “final Super Rare NFT” in the collection will have a different price.
Previous NFT events featuring Cristiano Ronaldo have offered additional benefits beyond the digital realm. For instance, participants were granted the exclusive opportunity to play football with the legendary player as part of Binance’s promotional activities.
Back in November 2023, as reported by Cointelegraph, Ronaldo faced a class action lawsuit in a US district court in Florida related to his involvement in NFT collection sales with Binance. The lawsuit alleged that Ronaldo had actively participated in the offering and sale of unregistered securities in collaboration with Binance, despite being aware of Binance’s involvement in such activities.
This legal action against Cristiano Ronaldo was a result of Binance’s previous legal troubles, which culminated in the founder, Changpeng “CZ” Zhao, being found guilty of facilitating fraud in the US. In April 2024, Zhao was sentenced to four months of detention for his alleged involvement in a money laundering scheme.
In response to recent reports by the Wall Street Journal and the launch of Hong Kong’s crypto ETFs, Binance has strongly refuted claims and emphasized that the equivalent value of $50 billion is a mere fabrication.
