Tristan Thompson’s $2M Crypto Suit Targets World Mobile

• Lawsuit claims breach of contract and unauthorized use of Thompson’s likeness
• Dispute arises after partnership termination and contested WMTX token payments

On May 30, 2026, Law360 reported that Tristan Thompson filed a lawsuit in Delaware Chancery Court against World Mobile Group. Thompson alleged breach of contract and unauthorized use of his name and likeness following the termination of a failed $2 million cryptocurrency endorsement deal involving WMTX tokens.

The legal dispute centers on the partnership’s breakdown. World Mobile Group claimed Thompson failed to return excess WMTX tokens and sold part of his holdings, which they argued justified the contract’s termination. Thompson countered that the termination was unjustified and that World Mobile continued using his identity in company promotional materials without consent.

Amid ongoing media attention—including Thompson’s personal revelations on the Kardashian podcast—the former NBA player’s complaint seeks unpaid compensation, damages, and an injunction to prevent further use of his likeness by World Mobile Group in its advertising and promotions. According to Law360, the lawsuit reflects Thompson’s growing involvement in the intersection of blockchain and celebrity business ventures, underscoring how such deals are increasingly blending tech, sports, and pop culture.
