The BBC has seen new evidence suggesting he promoted investments without revealing he had a financial interest in them.

The influence of Paul - whose YouTube channel has more than 23 million followers - appears to have caused prices in these investments to spike, leading to suggestions he could have profited from sales of any tokens he held.

Paul also currently faces a multi-million-dollar lawsuit over a failed crypto project called CryptoZoo.

He denies any wrongdoing.
