#libra Token Co-Creator Claims to Have Paid Argentine President's Sister for Influence


In a shocking revelation, Hayden Davis, co-creator of the Libra token, allegedly boasted in text messages about buying influence over Argentine President Javier Milei by paying his sister, Karina Milei, a powerful figure in the president's government. Davis claimed in December that he could control Milei's actions by making payments to Karina, stating that "he signs whatever I say and does what I want."


The claims add a new layer to the growing anti-corruption investigation into Milei's involvement with the Libra memecoin, which was launched amid great hype but quickly crashed, wiping out millions of dollars in investments. While Davis has denied making any payments and dismissed the allegations as politically motivated, the scandal, dubbed "Criptogate" in local press, has raised serious questions about the behind-the-scenes dealings surrounding Libra’s controversial launch.


Davis' company, Kelsier Ventures, was a major beneficiary of Libra's brief success, making over $100 million in the token's early hours before it plummeted. The incident has sparked outrage in Argentina, with opposition leaders threatening impeachment proceedings against Milei.


As the investigation unfolds, this case serves as a stark reminder of the risks and potential corruption surrounding the intersection of politics and cryptocurrency. The Libra saga continues to capture attention, as both Davis and Milei’s inner circle face increasing scrutiny.
