BitBoy Crypto 面临 $BEN 代币投资者的集体诉讼

本·阿姆斯特朗（Ben Armstrong），又名 BitBoy Crypto，正面临购买 $BEN 代币的投资者的集体诉讼，指控他的促销误导了他们。

Ben Armstrong, better known as BitBoy Crypto, is facing a class-action lawsuit from investors who purchased the $BEN token, alleging that his promotions misled them. The lawsuit accuses Armstrong and his associates of promising substantial returns, while many investors ultimately incurred significant losses.

Ben Armstrong（更广为人知的名字是 BitBoy Crypto）正面临购买 $BEN 代币的投资者的集体诉讼，指控他的促销误导了他们。该诉讼指控阿姆斯特朗及其同伙承诺丰厚回报，而许多投资者最终蒙受了重大损失。

This legal action unfolds amidst an ongoing investigation by the Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) into potential fraud involving $BEN and 14 other cryptocurrencies.

此次法律行动是在商品期货交易委员会 (CFTC) 对涉及 $BEN 和其他 14 种加密货币的潜在欺诈行为进行持续调查期间展开的。

On August 3, the CFTC subpoenaed Hit Network, a company previously linked to Armstrong, to examine trading activities and wallet connections pertaining to these tokens.

8 月 3 日，CFTC 传唤了之前与阿姆斯特朗有联系的 Hit Network，以检查与这些代币相关的交易活动和钱包连接。

Armstrong promoted $BEN, which was launched in May 2023 by an influencer known as ben.eth. He later became the CEO of the project but stepped down in June 2023.

阿姆斯特朗推广了 $BEN，该货币由一位名叫 ben.eth 的影响者于 2023 年 5 月推出。他后来成为该项目的首席执行官，但于 2023 年 6 月辞职。

Armstrong has acknowledged accepting payments for token promotions, some of which he later realized were scams, although he maintains that these promotions were unintentional. His involvement with $BEN led to tensions at Hit Network, culminating in his removal as a host in August 2023.

阿姆斯特朗承认接受代币促销活动的付款，他后来意识到其中一些是骗局，尽管他坚称这些促销活动是无意的。他参与 $BEN 导致 Hit Network 关系紧张，最终于 2023 年 8 月被解除主持人职务。

Armstrong has also faced personal challenges, including allegations of substance abuse, which he partially admitted to, and legal disputes over a Lamborghini with a former business partner.

阿姆斯特朗还面临个人挑战，包括滥用药物的指控（他部分承认这一点）以及与前商业伙伴因兰博基尼而发生的法律纠纷。

Furthermore, Armstrong is engaged in other legal battles, such as a defamation lawsuit he initially filed against fellow influencer Atozy, which was later dropped. As a result of these controversies, Armstrong's reputation and crypto-related activities are undergoing intense scrutiny.

此外，阿姆斯特朗还参与了其他法律诉讼，例如他最初对同为影响者阿托兹提起的诽谤诉讼，后来被撤销。由于这些争议，阿姆斯特朗的声誉和加密相关活动正在受到严格审查。
