Argentine President Javier Milei is under scrutiny for fraud allegations related to the LIBRA cryptocurrency, which rapidly lost value.
Legal Action and Allegations
Lawyers representing the plaintiffs claim that Javier Milei participated in an illicit association to defraud investors. The case is now under review by Argentina’s criminal justice system.
What Happened with LIBRA?
Developed on the Solana blockchain, LIBRA saw a massive surge in value after Milei’s endorsement, reaching a market cap of $4.56 billion before crashing by over 94% within 11 hours.
Milei’s Response: Denial and Counterattack
After deleting his post, Milei claimed no direct involvement. He requested the Anti-Corruption Office to investigate government members.
The fraud allegations against Javier Milei have sparked public interest, leading to political instability and potential impeachment proceedings.
