A Texas magistrate judge has recommended that Logan Paul be allowed to move forward with his defamation lawsuit against Stephen Findeisen—better known as “Coffeezilla.” The legal dispute centers on comments Findeisen made about Paul’s failed CryptoZoo project, a blockchain-based game that never came to fruition.


Key details include:




  • Judge’s Recommendation: Magistrate Judge Henry Bemporad, in a report filed on March 26 at a San Antonio federal court, advised federal Judge Orlando Garcia to reject Findeisen’s motion to dismiss the case. Bemporad noted that Findeisen’s statements were presented as factual claims rather than mere opinions. He also mentioned that the disclaimers included in Findeisen’s videos were not prominently displayed and wouldn’t change the factual nature of his assertions.



  • Lawsuit Background: Logan Paul initiated the lawsuit in June, alleging that Findeisen’s posts on X (formerly Twitter) and YouTube videos were malicious and caused significant reputational harm. Paul contends that Findeisen falsely portrayed him as “a serial scammer” and described CryptoZoo as a “scam” and “massive con”—accusations that Paul denies.



  • CryptoZoo Project: Originally envisioned as a blockchain game where players could purchase NFT “eggs” to hatch and breed into unique creatures (with tokens awarded based on rarity), the project never materialized. In response to earlier controversies, Paul had previously retracted legal threats and apologized. By January 2023, he had pledged to develop a plan for CryptoZoo, which later included allocating $2.3 million for refunds—contingent on claimants agreeing not to sue.



  • Related Legal Actions: In addition to Paul’s suit against Findeisen, a class-action lawsuit has been filed by a group of CryptoZoo buyers against Paul and others allegedly involved in the venture. Paul, for his part, has requested that this class-action be dismissed and has also filed a counter-suit against two business partners he holds responsible for the project’s failure.


This summary captures the key elements of the report and the ongoing legal developments between Logan Paul and Coffeezilla.
