A Tuesday court filing by the class action’s lawyers in a Florida district court claimed that Armstrong made up to 21 calls within a 45-minute period, leaving vulgar voicemails that specifically targeted the lawyers. 

O’Leary on Wednesday took a jab at the YouTuber and said, “Don’t you just hate it when that happens? Good thing he has the millions he needs to pay his lawyers!”

Meanwhile, Dogecoin DOGE/USD founder Billy Markus, popularly known as "Shibetoshi Nakamoto" reacted to O’Leary’s tweet and said, “The f*** is this weird a** tweet.”

Price Action: At the time of writing, DOGE was trading at $0.074, down 0.53% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro data.
