One of them is Ben Armstrong, the owner of the popular Bitboy Crypto YouTube channel. Armstrong arrived in the Bahamas on Saturday, seeking out Bankman-Fried at his luxury penthouse.

FTX’s collapse, fraught with allegations of fraud and mismanagement, has cost users billions of dollars. That’s what prompted crypto influencers like Armstrong to seek answers.
After looking around the property, Armstrong apparently found Bankman-Fried’s car, potentially highlighting Bankman-Fried’s alleged drug use.
The Sam Bankman-Fried “manhunt” has gotten a great deal of social media attention. Crypto Twitter, including influencers in the Bahamas, is having fun with the whole situation.
“Bitboy Crypto is doing a better job than Gary Gensler. The SEC should be ashamed,” one Twitter user wrote.
Others have commended the influencers for bringing attention to the FTX collapse. Guy Turner, the owner of the popular Coin Bureau YouTube channel, pointed out that crypto influencers might have prompted the Bahamian Attorney General to reveal some details about their investigation into FTX.
“The Bahamian authorities decided to address the FTX situation only when they realized half of CT (crypto Twitter) was heading to the island. Now that’s a job well done lads,” Turner wrote.
Sam Bankman-Fried caused one of the largest crashes in the crypto space and should be held accountable.
