A Chinese lawyer, Jin Jianzhi, has warned that Key Opinion Leaders (KOLs) in mainland China could face serious legal consequences for promoting referral codes. According to Chinese law, sharing referral codes to earn points or potential airdrops is considered soliciting gamblers for profit, akin to running a casino. This activity could lead to being charged as an accomplice in operating a casino, which carries severe penalties. Jin advises industry participants to exercise caution. The views expressed are those of the interviewee and do not represent the platform's stance.
