Yes the guy is finally arrested. I used to follow him. But once he started bashing Bitcoin, I just un-followed him forgot about him.
I just didn't care anymore what the clown had to say about Bitcoin. When I heard the news of his arrest (tax evasion charge) I just couldn't wait to share it with you all

He definitely have pumped and dumped various alt coins for his own benefit but he was always very vocal about the cryptocurrencies and their developmens. It's hard to find another strong supporter of cryptocurrency in recent times.
I do not think that he is really the strongest support of cryptocurrency. All he did was for all his own gain tricking people to invest in cryptocurrency projects that made them huge losses. If he really is a supporter of cryptocurrency, he would have lead people to better and legit projects not raking wealth because of people's ignorance of cryptocurrency. Most people who likes crypto now hated it because of his shilling activities. He never supports crypto but exploit them to gain wealth.
While many people won't give a shit about this news, I am actually sad because he is facing an organized attempt to silent a strong crypto support.
Tax evasion is a criminal case and he was proven guilty of it. I don't think it has something to do about cryptocurrency.
