  • Ben Armstrong said he would be doing a Twitter Space with Bankman-Fried.
  • The BitBoy Crypto founder was seen camping outside Bankman-Fried’s house.
  • Following the FTX fall, crypto platform BlockFi filed for a Chapter 11 bankruptcy.

BitBoy Crypto founder Ben Armstrong, who has been camping outside FTX founder and former CEO, Sam Bankman-Fried’s house, announced on Twitter that he would be doing a Twitter Space with Bankman-Fried in the coming weeks.

Armstrong was seen sharing a livestream from the Bahamas in a bid to track down Bankman-Fried and just get all the information on what went down, straight from the horse’s mouth. It is seen from the recording that Bankman-Fried has blocked Armstrong on Twitter and the latter was seen pleading with him to unblock him.

A snippet from the recording:

Sam… Where are you? We’re looking for you. Just wanna talk Sam. I know that’s where you are at buddy. It’s Ok. Sam, in all seriousness, we just want you to come tell your story. Unblock me on Twitter. Come tell your story. Let’s talk.

Soon after this went live, Bankman-Fried unblocked Armstrong on Twitter and had a word with him as well. The two have agreed to do a Twitter Space within two weeks where Armstrong will ask all the questions on behalf of the crypto community.

In related news, following the aftermath of FTX, crypto lending platform, BlockFi, filed for a voluntary Chapter 11 bankruptcy on Monday. BlockFi stated earlier this month that it had stopped accepting withdrawals due to “substantial exposure” to the FTX exchange run by Bankman-Fried as well as the sibling hedge fund Alameda.

BlockFi said in a statement:

Since the pause, our team has explored every strategic option and alternative available to us, and has remained laser-focused on our primary objective of doing the best we can for our clients.

Soon after filing for bankruptcy, BlockFi sued Bankman-Fried’s Emergent Fidelity Technologies business and demanded the CEO deliver the collateral it claims it is owed.
