Crypto Influencer BitBoy Arrested Over Alleged Harassing Emails

Ben “BitBoy” Armstrong, a well-known crypto influencer, was arrested in Florida. The arrest appears to be related to emails he sent to a judge, which may have been perceived as harassing or threatening. Armstrong is currently being held without bond, meaning he cannot post bail and will remain in custody until his pre-trial hearings.

Armstrong has a history of legal issues and controversies. Two years ago, he was removed from the BitBoy YouTube channel, which underwent a rebranding in his absence. In 2023, he was arrested for loitering, and his business ventures have faced challenges. His latest arrest adds to a pattern of erratic behavior and legal troubles.

According to Armstrong's social media posts, the warrants for his arrest were issued due to emails he sent to Judge Kimberly Childs of Cobb County. Armstrong claimed that he was acting as his own attorney when he sent these emails. The content of the emails is not yet public, but they may have constituted harassment or threatening statements, which could explain the judge's decision to issue a warrant for his arrest.

This is not the first time Armstrong has been involved in a legal dispute. In 2023, he was in legal hot water for harassing an attorney in a different legal battle, although he was not arrested in that incident. His most recent social media posts have also included bizarre tirades against a young actor who shares his name, further highlighting his erratic behavior.

Armstrong's legal troubles may have significant implications for his influence in the crypto community. His active participation in social media networks has made his case a topic of discussion among crypto enthusiasts. However, his incarceration and the ongoing legal battle may impact his ability to retain a meaningful following in the crypto space.

Until the legal battle proceeds, the public will not have access to the harassing emails in question. It is unclear how long it will take for Armstrong to get a hearing after his arrest. The outcome of this legal battle will likely determine the future of his influence in the crypto community and his personal freedom.
