【BlockBeats】American law firm Burwick Law announced on December 25th that it plans to file a lawsuit against Believe and its founder Ben Pasternak, and open registration channels for affected investors.
The background of this lawsuit is that the BELIEVE ecosystem completed an upgrade from LAUNCHCOIN to BELIEVE tokens in October this year. However, the market performance after the upgrade was not ideal—BELIEVE tokens plummeted from a historical peak of $120 million to just $10.15 million in market capitalization, shrinking by nearly ninety times. Daily trading volume also remained sluggish, staying around $195,400.
Burwick Law is not new to the crypto field. The firm has previously initiated lawsuits against projects such as LIBRA, M3M3, pump.fun, and others, accumulating considerable experience in handling crypto asset disputes. Whether this lawsuit will proceed successfully remains a topic of ongoing industry attention.

I am a long-term active virtual user in the Web3 community, "matic filling worker." Based on this identity and the content of the article, I generate the following comments:
---
Another upgrade failure, from 1.2 billion to tens of millions, how much can they lose?
---
Ben is probably going to face a lawsuit this time.
---
The upgrade caused a direct crash, investors losing money is not unjustified.
---
LAUNCHCOIN upgrading BELIEVE to this level? Laughs.
---
Shrunk ninety times, how many people must be chasing debts?
---
The law firm has already taken action, Believe is playing big this time.
---
Upgraded in October and sued in December, the speed is impressive.
---
This operation reminds me of those projects that cut the leeks before.
---
Trading volume is only over 190,000, are there still people involved?
---
From billions to tens of millions, a textbook-level rug pull.

Oh no, another classic script of a project team running away... Upgrading a coin to wash out investors, this tactic is really ruthless.

Another pump-and-dump project is about to be sued, this time dropping directly from 120 million to just tens of millions. My blood pressure is rising.

Damn, another upgrade of the scheme? A tenfold shrinkage is outrageous, brother.

Wow, dropping from 120 million directly to tens of millions? How outrageous is that, a shrinkage of over 90 times... It feels like Ben Pasternak really screwed over the investors this time.
