<p>On Aug. 27, Armstrong <a href="https://twitter.com/joinBENCoin/status/1695903547278201124" target="_blank" rel="noopener">claimed</a> on his Twitter profile that TJ Shedd &amp; Justin Williams had attempted a coup at his company.

<blockquote class="wp-block-quote"> 
 <p>Just confirming what is going around. It’s true. There has been a mutiny at BitBoy Crypto &amp; Hit Network. But it won’t work. They have no leverage. Until they can clone me, I have nothing to worry about.</p> <cite>Ben Armstrong</cite>

<p>Blockchain analyst ZachXBT <a href="https://twitter.com/zachxbt/status/1695916537817841751" target="_blank" rel="noopener">replied</a> to Armstrong’s statement by asking if the reason behind the takeover is his “recent involvement with all of these sketchy meme coins or something else?”</p> 
<p>Other comments pointed to previous internal conflicts at the company, which purportedly involved some company representatives <a href="https://twitter.com/Bitboy_Crypto/status/1671825706366676993" target="_blank" rel="noopener">convincing</a> Armstrong that criminal cartels were involved to scare him into submission.</p>
