Milei’s Crypto Party Wins Midterm – But Why? 🚀

In a stunning twist of fate, the universe has once again demonstrated its indifference to human plans as Javier Milei’s crypto-friendly party emerged victorious in the Argentine midterm elections. The cosmos, ever the trickster, has now set the stage for Milei to potentially claim the presidency in 2027. 🌌💰

With a staggering 40.68% of nearly 99% of votes counted, La Libertad Avanza has managed to outdo the Peronist party, a feat akin to convincing a black hole to play by the rules of gravity. 🤯 The Buenos Aires province, traditionally a Peronist stronghold, now finds itself in a state of existential confusion. 🤷‍♂️

The results have flipped the script so dramatically that even the most seasoned political analysts are now questioning the very fabric of reality. Argentina’s $20 billion currency swap with the US has somehow managed to strengthen economic ties, proving that even in a world of uncertainty, there’s always a silver lining. 🌟

Despite the Peronist party still holding the majority in Congress, Milei’s party is now the talk of the town, much like a toddler with a calculator in a room full of economists. 🧮

And here’s the proof, if you can call it that. 📸

As a former economist, Milei has spent his career trying to convince the world that free markets are the answer to life, the universe, and everything. 🧠💰

In a move that has left many scratching their heads, Milei has been instrumental in legalizing contracts settled in Bitcoin. Because nothing says ‘I’m in charge’ like using a cryptocurrency that’s more volatile than a teenager’s mood. 🤯

Milei’s Involvement in the Libra Scandal: A Tale of Crypto and Controversy 🚨

However, Milei’s crypto endeavors have been overshadowed by his involvement in the Libra token scandal, a story so convoluted that even the most seasoned conspiracy theorists are left in awe. 🤯

The LIBRA token, launched by Kelsier Ventures CEO Hayden Davis, soared to a $4.6 billion market cap after a controversial X post from Milei. But then it crashed 94% in hours, proving that even the most promising ventures can be as stable as a house of cards in a hurricane. 🌪️

Milei claims he ‘spread the word’ about the LIBRA token, but insists he didn’t promote it. Because nothing says ‘I’m not a promoter’ like a post that somehow managed to make a token go from $4.6 billion to a footnote in history. 🤷‍♂️

Argentina’s corruption watchdog, ever the diligent guardian of truth, has since cleared Milei of any wrongdoing. Because nothing says ‘innocent’ like a scandal that’s been officially dismissed with the same enthusiasm as a toddler’s bedtime. 🍼

Milei’s Image: A Work in Progress 🧱

Data from Zuban Córdoba shows Milei’s image has taken a hit, tanking from 47.3% to 41.6% in March. But don’t worry, the center-left pollsters have found that 63.2% of Argentines now view him negatively. Because nothing says ‘popular’ like being disliked by the majority. 🤡

It’s worth noting that Zuban Córdoba is known for its critical stance towards far-right and libertarian policies. So, their findings might be as reliable as a weather forecast in a tornado. 🌪️
