Oh, Javier Milei, the libertarian heartthrob of Argentina, has found himself in a bit of a pickle 🥒, haven’t we? He’s been flipping coins over the whole “Did I, didn’t I” promote the Libra token fiasco.
In a chat with Todo Noticias, our man Javier, with a straight face, said, “I did not promote that. What I did, I spread the word.” Spread the word, eh? Sounds like he was just being a good Samaritan, sharing the love 💖, one token at a time.
But oh, the drama! On February 14, while Cupid was busy shooting arrows, Milei was shooting… well, tweets about the Solana-based Libra token. And guess what? Its market cap ballooned to $4.56 billion faster than you can say “pump-and-dump” (which, by the way, is totally not what happened, according to him).
Then, in a move that shocked absolutely no one, when the tweet vanished, so did the token’s value. Poof! Down 94%, like a soufflé that didn’t quite souffle. But Milei, our knight in shining armor, claims he acted in “good faith” and has “nothing to hide.” Except maybe that tweet.
Our hero has learned a valuable lesson, folks. It’s all about boundaries. You know, like not letting your enthusiasm for crypto turn into a national scandal.
And let’s not forget the 44,000 “investors” who were allegedly impacted. But according to Milei, most of them were just bots. Because in this day and age, even your financial losses can be blamed on robots 🤖.
Maria Fernanda Juppet, the CEO of CryptoMKT and probably a wizard with crypto spells, assures us that this little hiccup won’t slow down Argentina’s love affair with digital dollars. It’s more about the politics than the tech, she says.
And in a classic game of hot potato, KIP Protocol, after a cozy meet-and-greet with Milei, is tossing that potato right out of their hands. They’re as involved in this mess as a vegan is at a BBQ cook-off.
So there you have it, folks. A tale of crypto, politics, and a president who just can’t help but stir the pot 🥘. Will this be the end of Milei’s token escapades? Only time and the inevitable Netflix docuseries will tell.
