Kim Kardashian has agreed to pay a fine of $1.26 million - or £1.12 million - to settle a legal case after advertising the EthereumMax scheme to millions of followers on her Instagram page.

Kardashian, boxer Floyd Mayweather Jr, basketball player Paul Pierce and EthereumMax’s creators were sued by investors in January, as the coin plunged in value by 97 per cent since its launch in 2021.
Kardashian’s lawyer says she is “pleased to have resolved” the matter.
