 This is so exciting! The Pro #Bitcoin  Argentine presidential candidate Javier Milei just WON the presidential election! 🇦🇷 👏

 😉 
 👌 
 This will be very interesting 🤙 
 I’m ready for interesting 👏 
 Things are getting really interesting 
 Very 🤜🤛 
 I find it hard to believe that we can be happy about a guy like him coming to power, pro-BTC or not. I find it strange and rather childish to look only at the 'pro-BTC' aspect to form an idea about a person. And that's extremely damaging for the Bitcoin project. 
 #Bitcoin is not a project, it’s a revolution and the politicians are just tools to speed up adoption. 
 This is exactly what I feel. 
 This is just my opinion, and I could be wrong, but time will tell... 
 Why not? Why can't we be happy that someone who wants to tear down a central bank is now in a position to possibly do so?  
 Can you be specific about what it is about him that you don’t like. 
 Everything, but if the revolution is underway, then bon voyage. My heart goes out to the Argentine people. 
 Is he really that Pro #bitcoin ?

I’m kinda doubting 
 We shall see 😉

I KNOW for a fact that many presidents in Latin America have been talking about this (some were just nervous about IMF) but I KNOW for a fact that most of Latin America is ready for #Bitcoin. 
 I think you're right about South America. Probably Africa, too.  
 I know for a fact that I am right, I’m just not in a position to give all details as to how I know this for a fact. But time will show that Latin American leaders want this and will try to make this happen as soon as they can. I can say with certainty they are discussing it and have been for a few years now. 

I assume the same for Africa, I just don’t have my ear in any rooms there with anyone at the top so I can’t say that for a fact, but I would assume so. 
 I believe you. Most of SA is tired of playing games to pander to the bigger, more intrusive countries of the world. I can't imagine a better way to break free from all the BS entanglements than to follow a plan like Milei has, even if it woo be very hard to transition.  
 I love these debates where when someone expresses a different opinion, they are immediately singled out by the community... History is full of similar examples. Bitcoin is a project for me. A beautiful project, in fact, and I don't think that using it to "break everything" is the best way to profit from it and see it grow. I can understand Che Guevara 3.0, but Bitcoin deserves better than that. Yes, long live BTC and without "violence", it'll be even better 🤙🏻
