Stern's SISTER Token Surges 290% After Alleging Tate Assault

Brianna “Bri” Stern, a model and crypto influencer, has filed a civil lawsuit against Andrew Tate, a controversial internet personality. The lawsuit, filed in Los Angeles, alleges that Tate physically assaulted Stern at the Beverly Hills Hotel on March 11. Stern, who promotes the Solana-based meme coin SISTER, claims that she met Tate while modeling for his cryptocurrency, DADDY, and that he promised to support her own meme coin.

According to the lawsuit, the alleged assault occurred during what Stern describes as a 10-month relationship with Tate. Stern claims that what began as consensual sex turned violent, with Tate verbally degrading, choking, and beating her during the encounter. Stern sought medical attention at a New York hospital following the alleged incident and was diagnosed with “Post-Concussion Syndrome,” suggesting she may have suffered a mild traumatic brain injury.

Stern's lawsuit seeks unspecified statutory and punitive damages from Tate. She will be represented by Buzbee Law, a firm currently representing alleged victims of Sean “Diddy” Combs in separate legal matters. Tate's legal team has dismissed the allegations as a “blatant cash grab” and a “desperate attempt” to exploit their client. The Beverly Hills police have not yet confirmed or commented on the allegations, and a digital copy of the lawsuit has not yet appeared in public records.

Stern's SISTER token, which launched on the Solana blockchain in June last year, has seen a major price increase following news of the lawsuit. The meme coin surged by over 290% in the past 24 hours, reaching a market cap of $370,000 with approximately 550 holders. This is not the first time Tate has faced serious allegations. The 38-year-old former kickboxer currently faces separate rape and human trafficking charges in Romania alongside his brother Tristan. They were allowed to leave Romania while awaiting trial on these charges.

Stern’s allegations have sent shockwaves across the cryptocurrency community, highlighting the growing overlap between social media influencers, cryptocurrency promotion, and real-world legal issues. As both tokens continue to trade, investors and followers of both parties await further developments in the case. The case connects two worlds that don’t often intersect in legal proceedings – the emerging crypto meme coin market and allegations of physical assault.
