They’ve sold off 119,278 tokens for 54 BNB ($33,106) and are sitting on 20.68 million more, now worth $4.93 million. That’s a $4.95 million profit in no time, sparking whispers of insider trading. Traders on X aren’t holding back—some are calling celebrity tokens a dead end, while others drag up Ronaldinho’s past crypto controversies to question his credibility.
And yeah, Ronaldinho’s no stranger to crypto drama. Back in June 2024, he teased a “mainstream” crypto comeback that caught flak from sleuth ZachXBT, who flagged his history with shady projects. Ronaldinho’s name has been tied to stuff like World Cup Inu, Atari Chain, Lord Society NFT, and meme coins like WATER and Baby Doge—some of which Lionel Messi also hyped.
Then there’s the ugly “18kRonaldinho” mess in September 2023, a supposed $61 million pyramid scheme promising 2% daily returns. Ronaldinho denied any involvement, claiming his image got hijacked, but it left a stain.
