Why It Matters: Last month, Armstrong initiated legal action in Georgia against Hit Network CEO T imothy “TJ” Shedd Jr.and Timothy Shedd Sr., both employees of Hit Network.This lawsuit also involves corporate entities, with BJ Investment Holdings (BJIH) joining Armstrong as a plaintiff and TJSJ Holdings as a defendant alongside the Shedds.
The lawsuit alleges a conspiracy by the Shedds to unlawfully wrest control of the company created by Armstrong in 2018.
To support his legal defense in this ongoing legal battle, Armstrong turned to his fans for assistance.
Within less than 24 hours, supporters donated approximately $60,000 worth of Ethereum ETH/USD and Bitcoin to his crypto wallets, as confirmed by data from Etherscan and blockchain records.
In September, Armstrong was arrested following a live broadcast on YouTube.He had planned to confront an individual named Carlos Diaz in an attempt to “get his Lamborghini back,” but the situation quickly escalated into a rage of conspiracy theories before the police intervened.
Price Action: At the time of writing, BTC was trading at $28,810.35, up 2.18% in the last 24 hours, according to Benzinga Pro.
