The crypto bull season — and the accompanying hype — is undoubtedly upon us. Recalling a number of the celebrities who acquired in on crypto in the course of the historic winter 2017 market, the actress Lindsey Lohan has now recorded a paid, promotional video for Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH).
Lohan’s video was commissioned by a crypto information outlet through a platform known as Cameo — a web-based service that permits individuals or companies to rent celebrities to document personalised video messages at an agreed worth. In keeping with the positioning, as of press time, a person could make a video request from Lohan for roughly $350.
Within the 12-second-long video, the actress — showing in a selfie body in entrance of a nondescript, bleached window view — informed viewers:
“I am simply right here to say that Ethereum goes to $10,000 and Bitcoin goes to $100,000. Take pleasure in a affluent 2021 and I hope you all get to drive your lambos to the moon.”
Cointelegraph readers will bear in mind the likes of Stevan Seagal, Paris Hilton and Floyd Mayweather getting wrapped up within the preliminary coin providing, or ICO, fever of 2017 — tales which resulted in lawsuits and tears, or within the case of Hilton, at the very least some shrewd distance after her chosen ICO fell into disrepute.
Not like these earlier involvements, Lohan’s video predictions will not be tied to rising, smaller altcoins, and as such, stay restricted to a vaguer endorsement of the trade’s most veteran and largest market-cap cash. Her reference to “Ethereum” — versus the correct, strictly talking, asset title “Ether” — suggests the actress has not immersed herself to any vital extent in crypto markets and on-line tradition.
As of press time, Bitcoin is circling the $34,220 mark, down simply over 2% on the day, however up 77% on the month. Ether is retaining its foothold above the $1,000 mark, at near $1,060, and is equally up near 80% on the month.
