Milei got himself in the dirty game of politics... he stopped the money printer but he can't chainsaw all that he'd like. This means raising taxes (short term only, apparently) but especially getting more debt to finance deficits. Which means pleasing the idiotic fiat establishment like IMF, FATF and so on. So unless he's playing 4D chess here, and I'm willing to give him some more time, I'm tempted to say that he go fuck himself. Especially because he NEVER understood bitcoin. Yes, he superficially does, but he does NOT really understand it. Maslaton, in his own way, does, and tried to orange pill him back in the day but it didn't work. I've always been puzzled with all the bitcoiners cheering on Milei for bitcoin... absolute nonsense. And for those who compare it with El Salvador... Argentina is nothing like El Salvador, you don't understand.
