The former host of the YouTube channel Bitboy Crypto fears for his life. He said he uncovered a network of cryptocurrency money launderers and named people who are trying to silence him.

Ben Armstrong assured that the “money laundering scheme” he uncovered exists at the expense of certain influential people who are responsible for his death if anything happens to him. The scandalous blogger named specific names: cryptocurrency investor and NFT enthusiast Brian Evans, CEO of the blockchain company Ternio Daniel Gouldman. According to Armstrong, “certain influential people” conspired with NFT influencer Justin Williams to influence the market and orchestrate a “pump and dump” scheme. Williams is the CEO of NFT marketplace Voomio, and Armstrong says he excels at scamming people. The former face of Bitboy Crypto claims that Gouldman sends his acquaintances to him with threats.

“Guys, this is serious for me. I got caught up in one of the largest, if not the largest, American cryptocurrency money laundering network. And they came for me. My only defense is my voice. And the community if anything happens to me,” Armstrong tweeted at X.

Over the past week, the BEN token launched by Armstrong has fallen in price by more than 35%. It is currently trading at $0.0000000314. This is 90% below the all-time high of $0.0000002725 recorded on May 25, 2023. The crypto blogger believes that his former colleagues are behind the collapse of the token.

Arstrong has been in a lot of trouble lately. In August, the Bitboy Crypto brand distanced itself from this crypto blogger. The Hit Network accused him of substance abuse. In September, Armstrong was detained during a live broadcast with former business partner Carlos Diaz, with whom the influencer was discussing the return of a Lamborghini. In October, the blogger admitted that his wife had filed for divorce.

Armstrong previously supported the altcoin XRP, but recently proclaimed himself the “Sultan of Solana,” which again caused a stir in the crypto community.
