Spain’s markets regulator, the National Securities Market Commission (CNMV), replied to the tweet, pointing out that “cryptoassets, being unregulated products, carry some significant risks.”

There was no indication whether Iniesta was paid to post the message about Binance, Reuters reported. Former teammates at Barcelona are known to share their enthusiasm for crypto projects.

Iniesta had not responded to a request for a comment through the club’s press office by publication time.
