In a complaint filed in Brooklyn federal court, the SEC said Heart, also known as Richard Schueler, touted his Hex token, PulseX asset trading platform and PulseChain asset network on YouTube and other websites as pathways to "grandiose wealth." The SEC accused Heart of spending investor funds on McLaren and Ferrari sports cars, four Rolex watches and "The Enigma," which cost 3.16 million British pounds (then $4.28 million) at auction and was purportedly the world's largest black diamond. Heart, 43, is a U.S. citizen believed to live in Helsinki, Finland, the SEC said. He did not immediately respond to a request for comment through LinkedIn. Hex, PulseX and PulseChain are also defendants.

The SEC alleged he touted the investments as a "pathway to grandiose wealth." But the SEC alleged that the 38% annual return that Schueler touted was nothing more than cover for an elaborate scheme. Schueler faces three charges of securities fraud in civil court. Schueler misappropriated at least $12 million of investor funds, the SEC alleged, to purchase a 555-carat black diamond, high-end vehicles, and luxury watches. A $550,000 Rolex Daytona, an $800,000 Rolex GMT Master II and another unspecified $1.38 million Rolex watch were among his watch purchases, the SEC said.
