Crypto influencer Ben “Bitboy” Armstrong has been ordered to appear before a Miami court next week to iron out allegations of harassment directed at class action attorney Adam Moskowitz and his law firm.

Armstrong was named as a defendant in a class action lawsuit last month, co-led by Moskowitz and attorney David Boies. The lawsuit alleges multiple online influencers solicited the sale of unregistered securities in promoting the defunct cryptocurrency exchange FTX and seeks over $1 billion in damages.

Armstrong declined to comment on his ability to attend the hearing in person, which is scheduled for April 20. But the influencer told Decrypt he anticipates the opportunity to “stare those scammers in the eyes,” referring to members of the Moskowitz’s Law Firm.

“They will be dealt with, and this isn’t going to turn out for them like they hope,” Armstrong said via a Twitter message. “Once again, the Moskowitz Law Firm has shown they will blatantly lie and make up false allegations in attempt of getting attention.”

Moskowitz told Decrypt that he and his law firm are “extremely appreciative” of the court’s decision to soon address the matter.

When the lawsuit first appeared last month, Armstrong claimed he’d never received a dollar from FTX and that he plans on filing a countersuit. And since then, Armstrong has come out swinging against Moskowitz and his law firm on Twitter.
