Oh, How The Mighty Have Fallen! Ben Token Falls Almost 95% From Its All-Time Highs After 'BitBoy Crypto' Ben Armstrong's Arrest — Coffeezilla Calls It Excessively 'Unhinged'

Ben Armstrong's Ben BEN/USD token experienced a significant drop of more than 21% in the past 24 hours following the news of Ben Armstrong’s arrest. 

What Happened: Armstrong,  was taken into custody after a live broadcast on YouTube took an unexpected turn.

Armstrong’s intention was to confront an individual named Carlos Diaz in an effort to reclaim his Lamborghini. However, the situation quickly spiraled into a series of conspiracy theories before the police intervened.

Notably, Armstrong had previously been ousted from his media company, BitBoy Crypto, following a unanimous decision made in August. It is likely that this incident was a contributing factor to Monday’s altercation.

The Ben token recorded a significant decline, with a drop of over 93% from its all-time high of $0.00000026. Currently, the token is trading at $0.00000001637.

Why It Matters: YouTube investigator Coffezilla criticized Armstrong’s actions. He said , “You DO NOT understand how unhinged this really is. Ben Armstrong just showed up at an ex-employee’s (Carlos) house who he accuses of “stealing his lambo”. He decides to bring a WEAPON and the woman he cheated on his wife with?"

However, what makes Coffeezilla wonder is that Armstrong had scheduled the livestream ahead of time. "Carlos saw this coming miles away… and surprise surprise, called the police who immediately arrested Ben."

Billy Markus, popularly known as Shibetoshi Nakamoto, co-creator of Dogecoin DOGE/USD, commented on the situation, calling it “peak comedy” that Armstrong posted about the confrontation, got arrested during the livestream, and ended up in jail.

Last week, Armstrong requested assistance in funding his legal campaign to regain control of BitBoy Crypto. He has received donations exceeding $54,000 received in Ethereum ETH/USD, Bitcoin BTC/USD, and Cardano ADA/USD addresses.
