An interview with Javier took place in which his lawyer interrupted him:
Talked to my buddy over there: the guy who interrupted wasn't his lawyer but apparently the friggin' secretary of the treasury which he told me is the most powerful person in Milei's cabinet. To make matters worse one former president more or less confirmed the FBI and SEC are already investigating this.
Also he told me that the journo was basically apologizing for daring to bring out the subject which its extremely pathetic ever for their standards. To finish it off Milei says during the same interview that he was told libra was a serious legit project to bring foreign investment to Argentina only to say a few minutes later that it was always a scam and people who bought it knew what they were getting into.
He needs to shut up before he ends up pulling a kanye...
So he or someone around him basically got bribed with $5m USD for this whole shitfest to happen.
I know it sounds like a lot of money for that part of the world but it really isn't, specially given the damage it has caused. I've heard of bureaucrats in that country getting like $20MM in bribes, $5MM for the president its nothing.
Dude has a lot of growing up to do
He's a sociopath, they never "grow up".
and will never do so because he's going to funkytown
FTFY
He'd be much safer at this point getting arrested and thrown in jail.
All this talk about "those $100 million belong to Argentina" when AFAIK there were no argentines getting scammed into this is making me think he's trying to broker a deal where he gets asylum and citizenship over there if he brings the money. Beats sharing a cell with bankman-fried.
He put all his intellectual skill points into learning crypto
I wouldn't call this learning crypto, managing discord servers and buying bots to spam /biz/ has nothing to do with crypto, plenty of other scams do the same thing. Learning crypto is coding a smart contract or an entire new blockchain, any retard can create a shitcoin ever since Eth tokens were invented.
I can see sentiment is very low right now and the market is impacted
Don't worry it wont last, it never does, else all crypto scams would've ended over a decade ago.
Being born in 1996 makes him a zoomer? That's like prime millennial age.
Prime millennial would be mid 80's, millennials were 1980 to 1994, zoomers from 1995 to 2010. The oldest zoomers are just hitting 30.
