Ben Armstrong, the once-prominent cryptocurrency YouTuber known as “BitBoy,” was arrested in Cherokee County, Georgia, on June 27 on six counts of harassing phone calls, according to public jail records.

Key Takeaways:

Ben Armstrong was arrested in Georgia on six counts of harassing phone calls and released on bond. He has remained silent publicly, with his X account inactive and managed by others since early June. Armstrong faces multiple legal battles, including a federal defamation lawsuit from Kevin O’Leary.

He was released the following day after posting bond. A newly released mugshot from the Georgia Gazette shows Armstrong looking noticeably more disheveled than in previous run-ins with law enforcement.

Details about the alleged phone calls have not been made public, and the Cherokee County Sheriff’s Office has yet to issue a formal statement.

Armstrong Remains Silent on Social Media Following Arrest

Armstrong, who has been largely silent on social media, hasn’t addressed the arrest. His X account, inactive since June 7, appears to be managed by others.

In one reply, the account confirmed he was still in custody at that time.

Armstrong’s latest arrest adds to a growing list of legal entanglements.

In March, he was arrested in Florida on a fugitive warrant from Georgia, related to emails he allegedly sent to Cobb County Superior Court Judge Kimberly Childs in connection with an ongoing defamation case.

Representing himself in court, Armstrong later confirmed the arrest stemmed from those communications.

The influencer is also facing a federal defamation lawsuit from “Shark Tank” investor Kevin O’Leary.

The suit accuses Armstrong of spreading false claims, including calling O’Leary “a real-life murderer” over a 2019 boating accident that resulted in two deaths.

O’Leary, who was never charged, is seeking more than $75,000 in damages. The case remains active in Florida federal court, where a motion for default judgment was recently filed.

I called it from the start and honestly tried to tell him this was the path.

Armstrong’s personal and legal troubles accelerated after he was removed from HIT Network, the crypto media company he co-founded.

The company cited alleged substance abuse, financial misconduct, and erratic behavior as reasons for the separation.

Armstrong Arrested While on Live-Stream

In September 2023, Armstrong was arrested by the police while live-streaming on YouTube.

He was on his way to confront a former colleague Carlos Diaz in a quest to retrieve his Lamborghini, but the police detained him midway. The police had also found illegal narcotics in his vehicle.

In April 2023, when Armstrong was part of a class-action lawsuit, he was called in by the judge to address his harassment of the plaintiffs’ counsel.

The plaintiff’s lawyer had claimed that Armstrong harassed the legal team with vulgar phone calls, voicemails, text messages and social media posts suggesting threats.
