The "crypto fiasco" of Milei has shaken the crypto and political world in Argentina. Four leaders have filed a criminal complaint against President Javier Milei, accusing him of being part of an alleged mega-scam through the promotion of the cryptocurrency $LIBRA on social media. According to the complaint, more than 40,000 investors suffered losses exceeding 4 billion dollars, after the value of $LIBRA was artificially inflated and then abruptly collapsed when large sums of capital were withdrawn. The accusation states that Milei, taking advantage of the trust generated by his image, spread the project without thoroughly understanding its details, which facilitated the coordination of a "rug pull" type scam. Additionally, figures close to his circle are involved, such as the President of the Chamber of Deputies, Martín Ménem, and executives from Kip Protocol and Kelsier Ventures. The controversy has generated strong reactions from the opposition, which is already demanding an impeachment trial and the immediate appearance of the president to clarify his involvement in this scandal, while experts warn about the risks of promoting digital assets without adequate regulation.
