<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="en" dir="ltr">Cool. I just got kicked off the Killer Whales show because of a FRAUDULENT FTX case against me. You see unlike these people, I HAVE integrity. Notice on pic 2 how quickly they are willing to lie to you about what happened. That’s Paul Caslin btw.<br>1/2 <a href="https://t.co/k8ksHDs5cK" target="_blank">pic.twitter.com/k8ksHDs5cK</a></p>&mdash; Ben Armstrong (@Bitboy_Crypto) <a href="https://twitter.com/Bitboy_Crypto/status/1661102726372110340?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw" target="_blank" rel="noopener">May 23, 2023</a></blockquote><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script>

<p>Despite upholding their integrity without wavering, some people, like Paul Caslin, have resorted to disseminating lies about the situation. Armstrong <a href="https://twitter.com/Bitboy_Crypto/status/1661102726372110340" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">stated</a> that all the people involved in his dismissal would regret not taking the side of truth and choosing to live in fear after he threatened to sue Adam Moskowitz.&nbsp;</p>



<p>Armstrong claims to have helped a lot of people out of FTX. He added that he met several people in Miami who claimed to have been saved by him.&nbsp;</p>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="the-ftx-fraud-case">The FTX fraud case</h2>



<p>FTX was one of the trading platforms that was launched by Sam Bankman-Fried in 2019. However, the platform <a href="https://crypto.news/judge-combines-silvergate-and-ftx-lawsuits-over-alleged-ties/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">collapsed</a> towards the end of 2022. Users and investors lost billions of dollars due to what at first appeared to be a massive accounting error. It was found that customer funds were diverted from FTX and into accounts under the control of the Hong Kong-based cryptocurrency trading company Alameda Research. Following this admission, <a href="https://crypto.news/ftx-considering-a-comeback-as-more-funds-are-recovered/" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">FTX</a> started to fall apart.</p>



<p>The fall of FTX in November 2022 lasted ten days, from Nov. 2 to Nov. 12. Binance first declared that it would sell all of its FTT tokens due to the mishandling of funds.</p>
