The complaint alleges that Letsgobrandon.com Foundation, LGBCoin, Ltd, Koutoulas, and Horsman sought to capitalize on the publicity surrounding the "Let's Go Brandon" chant and conspired to violate provisions of the Securities Act and its Florida State law analog by selling the unregistered LGBCoins. Further the complaint alleges that Koutoulas and Horsman (and their agents) solicited sales of LGBCoins by making false and misleading statements concerning NASCAR's approval of the LGBCoin sponsorship of Brandon Brown, the digital asset's growth prospects, and financial benefits for LGBCoin investors, as well as using celebrity promoters to lure in unsuspecting investors so that Koutoulas, Horsman, and other insiders could sell the unregistered LGBCoin securities in violation of federal and state securities laws.

On January 5, 2022, NASCAR announced it would not approve LGBCoin's sponsorship of NASCAR driver Brandon Brown. In the wake of this news, the price of LGBCoin fell to Class Period lows.
