The post Kevin O’Leary Wins $2.8M in Defamation Case Against BitBoy appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
A Florida federal judge has awarded Shark Tank star Kevin O’Leary $2.8 million in a defamation lawsuit against crypto influencer Ben “BitBoy” Armstrong after Armstrong failed to defend the case. Armstrong’s March 2025 social media posts falsely accused O’Leary of murder related to a 2019 boating accident, in which O’Leary was never charged, and his wife was acquitted, and shared his private phone number, leading to harassment. The damages include reputational harm, emotional distress, and punitive awards, highlighting the risks of false online accusations.
