The legal fallout from the collapse of crypto exchange FTX continues, with some high-profile names opting to settle while others are dismissed entirely.
Crypto influencer Ben “BitBoy” Armstrong is no longer facing a lawsuit related to his promotion of FTX. Lawyers recently filed notice that they are voluntarily dismissing claims against him. Armstrong had not yet responded to the allegations in court.
Meanwhile, Jacksonville Jaguars quarterback Trevor Lawrence, YouTuber Kevin Paffrath, and influencer Tom Nash have agreed to confidential settlements to resolve claims against them. A judge still needs to approve the deals to officially remove them from the ongoing litigation.
According to recent reports, lawyers leading the case say they are in discussions about potential settlements with other celebrities who promoted FTX, including athletes and social media stars. More deals are likely to come.
The lawsuit aims to claw back money paid to celebrity endorsers and sports teams that partnered with FTX before its collapse. A recent filing revealed FTX spent millions on deals with Shaquille O’Neal, the NBA’s Miami Heat, and others. It’s uncertain how much could actually be recovered.
The settlements come amid FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried’s ongoing criminal case. He faces fraud charges and is set to go to trial in October. Other recent developments include FTX reopening its claims portal following a security breach, and a judge approving the sale of billions in crypto from the company’s estate.
Armstrong recently found himself embroiled in a series of controversies and allegations. One of the main accusations leveled against him is fraudulent activities, with users calling for severe consequences, including imprisonment. Some users believe that Armstrong lost a significant amount of money during a recent crash in alternative cryptocurrencies and is now attempting to scam his followers to recoup his losses.
In response to these allegations, Armstrong has vehemently denied any wrongdoing. He has shared negative results from a drug test to counter accusations of drug misuse, which were initially cited as the reason for his removal from BJ Investment Holdings, the parent company of BitBoy. Armstrong labels these charges as “libelous” and “100% false,” claiming that they are part of a takeover plot against him.
Armstrong has also been involved in legal disputes, including a defamation case against fellow YouTuber Erling Mengshoel Jr. However, he withdrew the case following public outcry.
In a surprising turn of events, it was revealed that BitBoy has been fired from the company managing the BitBoy brand. This news was shared by cryptocurrency influencer Jason Williams, who stated that Armstrong is no longer associated with Hit Network, BJ Investment Holdings, and all subsidiary brands. Armstrong has been the face of the BitBoy brand until now.
While these controversies have caused a significant stir in the cryptocurrency community, it is important to note that the full extent of the truth behind these allegations is still unclear. As the situation continues to unfold, it remains to be seen how Armstrong will navigate these challenges and what impact they will have on his reputation and career in the cryptocurrency industry.

Quando o Shaquille O’Neal foi pro Miami Heat em 2004-05, o time tinha acabado de ter uma temporada com 211 enterradas. Depois do primeiro ano com o Shaq, esse número saltou pra 499. Um aumento de 136%. O’Neal e Jason Kidd são os únicos jogadores cuja chegada fez o time mais que dobrar a quantidade de enterradas de uma temporada pra outra.
Sabia disso?
Interessante lembrar também que o Miami chegou bem nos playoffs de 2005: varreu o Nets na primeira rodada e também varreu o Wizards na segunda rodada. Acabou perdendo nas finais de conferência pro Detroit depois de sete jogos. No ano seguinte, o Heat enfrentou o mesmo Detroit e de novo nas finais de conferência, mas desta vez venceu, passando para a final e conquistando o troféu depois de vencer o Dallas Mavericks. Foi o quarto e último anel do Shaq, o único dele que não veio acompanhado do troféu de MVP das Finais, que acabou indo para a jovem e genial estrela da equipe, Dwyane Wade, então com 24 anos.

“Sometimes joy has a terrible cost.” Theatre NOVA & The Ringwald Theatre’s filmed co-production of A New Brain
“Sometimes joy has a terrible cost.” Theatre NOVA & The Ringwald Theatre’s filmed co-production of A New Brain
A NEW BRAIN by William Finn and James Lapine, produced by Theatre NOVA in collaboration with The Ringwald Theatre, via Broadway on Demand in June 2021. Artwork by Bob Hank.
A New Brain by William Finn (Falsettos, The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee) and James Lapine (Falsettos, Into the Woods, Passion) is one of those musicals held in rapturous, nay obsessive esteem by the theater…
He was just a boy really. We had help it wasn’t just me and my pals. there were adults involved, lots of them. I mean we were young we were just thirteen and really couldn’t comprehend the ramification of our actions, the adults knew what they were doing. I’m painting it to sound way more sinister than it was, and in today’s society, wouldn’t trend on Twitter but maybe in the ’80s, it was probably considered quite ominous.
To set your mind at ease, it was Jason Todd. You know, Batman's sidekick, The Boy Wonder, Robin—well, the second Robin anyways. And I helped kill him.
I was big into comic books but my favorite was, The Dark Knight, The Caped Crusader, The Batman… He donned the best costume, he had all the money and was the most intelligent of all the superheroes. That last trait right there, the fact that he was considered a superhero and he had no actual super powers made him cooler than the other side of the pillow. You know how The Big Bang Theory has convinced the world it’s an Emmy-winning sitcom worth watching? I think it’s the fact that Batman was someone any one of us could actually be. Sure we needed to start with a base coat of genius followed by a splash of handsome billionaire playboy then train overseas in martial arts for several years, but if you had those things you, too, could be a vigilante. You ask me today and I'd stand by the fact that Batman would beat Superman in a fight, say ten out of ten times. This is not debatable because super beings from another planet are not real.
My favorite thing about Batman, though, is his ability to balance out good and evil. He spawned one of the greatest comic book villains and fictional characters ever created, The Joker. They have tried and tried again but in my opinion never got close to the Clown Prince of Crime—maybe Negan from The Walking Dead, he's pretty ruthless. The Joker is what would happen if a stand-up comedian became a criminal mastermind, so basically the plot of the 2019 film Joker.
My love for Joker made sense because growing up I was always more into the bad guys than the good guys. Watching and playing with G.I.Joe, I was always on the side of Cobra Commander, the twins Tomax and Xamot, and Zartan because they were always more glamorous and eye-catching than the boring ass Joes. Just once, I’d like that “knowing is half the battle” part at the end of the cartoon to have been Storm Shadow giving us kids a tip on how to fuck up Shipwreck and his stupid Parrot. Megatron, Skeletor, Shredder, Mumm-ra…
The list goes on, but the antagonists always resonated with me. they had a much better and more intriguing agenda than the good guys did. I know that wasn't the purpose, we were supposed to cheer on the good guys, like the idea of saving the world and all, but the mayhem… It’s like Alfred Pennyworth said, “Some men just want to watch the world burn.” It’s odd because the bad guys in my life were real, the bullies and I didn't like them at all. They tormented me daily unprovoked because I was short and had big ears. Perhaps my love for the dark side stemmed for my desire to be on that side because in real life there was no Superman swooping in to rescue me from the clutches of Lex Luthor.
There were two sides, and good had a lack of champions looking out for the weaker, smaller good guys. The bad guys in my neighborhood, well, they were real and never really foiled and more importantly, they always got the girl in the end. Fuck the good guys!
My admiration for evildoers achieving their agenda was tested in 1988, Batman was running a four-part series called A Death in the Family. It was your typical Batman arc. Somehow, The Joker was going to get the upper hand on The World’s Greatest Detective only to be bested in the end by Batman. But this time, the third comic decided to do something nobody had never seen in the industry. The writers were going to give the fans the opportunity to decide where they were going to go with the story, only it was an option between two different roads, one quite unconventional. Apparently a few years earlier, one of the writers, Dennis O'Neil, had seen a sketch they did on SNL where Eddie Murphy held up a Lobster—Larry the Lobster—and was asking viewers to decide whether Larry was boiled and eaten or was to be set free. The choices were offered in the form of two phone numbers both costing fifty cents a call. One number was a vote for him to be freed and the other number was a vote for Larry to be murdered, smothered in butter, and devoured by Axel Foley. Ultimately, after nearly 500,000 calls, the people voted for Larry the lovable lobster to be pardoned with a 12,000 call margin. The popularity of this bit intrigued O'Neil and A few years later he decided to implement it in his Death in The Family storyline.
In the third book, The Joker had taken Batman's sidekick, the Boy Wonder, hostage. He’d beaten him bloody with a crowbar leaving a cliffhanger to be wrapped up in the fourth book. The last page of the comic was full page and at the top read in true ’80s Do the Right Thing fashion: “Robin will die because The Joker wants revenge, but you can prevent it with a telephone call!” They even phrased it to steer you down the hero’s path, like you can literally be Batman with one phone call. Underneath the imploring verbiage were two numbers, dial one number; The Joker fails and Robin lives, Batman would once somehow saves the day. However, call this other number and The Joker succeeds and Robin dies. Gruesomely.
Wow! They were going to let the fans decide the fate of Robin, really this was one of my earliest introductions to a reality voting competition type show. In my opinion, it was a bad idea. Robin was always the worst. Go back and read through an adventure or two involving Jason Todd and tell me he wasn't always whiney and bellyaching. He was never going to be iconic or cool like Bruce Wayne or even his predecessor Dick Grayson—the first Robin. See, Dick got pissed off, decided he was tired of being in Batman's shadow, ditched the Robin costume, threw on a black blue and gold costume, moved to another city and became Nightwing. Dick was a go getter, ambitious. Grayson’s Robin was a winner, Todd's Robin was an irritating little bitch; he was not an innocent lobster.
I went to my mother and asked if I could make a call that was going to cost just fifty cents and I would pay her back or she could just take it out of my allowance. She wanted to know what it was for and mostly wanted to confirm it wasn't for an adult sex line, which costs more than fifty cents a minute, but that’s a different story. It was nothing as tawdry as phontercourse, I just wanted to help murder an annoying teenage sidekick. My mother response was “Oh, yeah, that’s fine.”
I think after it was exposed that it wasn't phone sex anything else I said went in one ear and out the other, surely she didn't think I was actually voting for a plucky comic book sidepiece to be murdered by The Joker. So that’s what I did. I cast my vote along with a majority of DC comic book fans that shared my detest for the boy wonder. Ten thousand votes were recorded with a narrow margin going to Robin dying. I think the writers never suspected that fans would go that route.
O’Neal himself voted for Robin’s stay of execution. A man of his word, Batman issue #429 was released and Robin was killed by The Joker in an explosion and we were to blame for it. Sad to say but you give a bunch of comic book nerds the power I think it would go bad every time. That day we were all proud to be The Joker's henchmen. I felt like a soldier at the end of Star Wars cheering madly while The Joker received his metal shouting, “I helped that happen!”
So many shows these days embrace our fascination with the anti-hero with the success of The Sopranos, The Shield, Breaking Bad, hell Narcos had me rooting for Pablo Escobar—Pablo fucking Escobar. I wouldn't say I was a bad person growing up. Quite the contrary, I was a shy nerd with no power to do anything but pick my books up after they were smacked to the ground. What I’m saying is don't give me the power to make important life or death decisions with your franchise because myself and the other dorks will have the bodies of Orko, Snarf, and Jimmy Olson lying in a shallow grave, just tell me what number to dial… or text.
