The record

Logan Paul's own court record runs mostly through CryptoZoo, the NFT game he promoted. Holland v. CryptoZoo Inc., a class action filed in the Western District of Texas on February 2, 2023, named him alongside CryptoZoo Inc. and the people who founded it. The plaintiffs alleged that he induced them to buy patently worthless products and called his later buyback program feigned altruism. Paul said in January 2024 that he never made a single penny from the project.

In January 2024 Paul answered the suit and filed cross-claims against two co-defendants, Eduardo Ibanez and Jake Greenbaum, whom he had publicly called con artists. After the plaintiffs amended their complaint in August 2024, he moved to dismiss it. On October 29, 2025, Judge Alan D. Albright adopted a magistrate judge's recommendation and dismissed all 27 claims against him, 26 of them with leave to amend and one with prejudice. A week earlier the court had denied, without prejudice, his motion for a default judgment against Ibanez and Greenbaum.

Outside the courtroom, his official record is in professional wrestling. WWE says he made his in-ring debut at WrestleMania 38, teaming with The Miz, and signed a WWE contract in June 2022. He won the United States Championship from Rey Mysterio at Crown Jewel 2023 and, in late 2025, the World Tag Team Championship with Austin Theory, according to the company's official profile of him.
