Milei is crushing it in Argentina’s primaries. I’ve never in my life seen a strong libertarian candidate get results like this.

Wow. So I guess he is pro bitcoin since he is libertarian?
Yepp - wants to abolish Argentine central bank
That seems... Significant. Do we have any precedent in the last 30-40 years of a major nation electing a leader who is openly jockeying for central bank abolition?
Maybe nostr:npub13wfgha67mdxall3gqp2hlln7tc4s03w4zqhe05v4t7fptpvnsgqs0z4fun can help answer
nostr:npub1l2vyh47mk2p0qlsku7hg0vn29faehy9hy34ygaclpn66ukqp3afqutajft is decades of reckless printing and spending enough for change in the eyes of Argentinians?
The Argentinian people are realizing that fixing the money is the only problem that matters. 120% YoY inflation means the pro-"currency competition" candidate shoots to the top "like a SCUBA diver's fart" as they say in Argentina ;)
I like this guy for 2 reasons:
• he has 80’s hair
• he is pro-bitcoin
Lo que me gustó mucho que eligió el color púrpura como #nostr
… in a G20 economy, with a candidate that understands bitcoin, and has promised to abolish the central bank and bring a free market in currency…
He's not so clean as it seems, a member of the wef he don't gets where he is without being shot or making some kind of deal.
Oasis for president
This was an interesting English language podcast about Milei from 2021:
Explaining Brazil: Argentina's far-right lion
Episode webpage: https://brazilian.report
Media file: https://pdcn.co/e/www.buzzsprout.com/299876/9564200-argentina-s-far-right-lion.mp3
Someone else to watch is Carlos Maslatón who sounds like the guy advising Milei about Bitcoin.
As you are following Argentina news you have prbably listened to this interview.
Diana Mondino is first in line for congress and senior economics advisor to Milei..
Worth listening

The NYT called him "Far Right".

Isn't Doug Casey an advisor to this guy?
Doug Casey lives in Argentina and talked briefly about Milei in his recent talk with Saifedean. The tldr is he likes him but isn't involved in his campaign. I highly recommend the episode:
The Bitcoin Standard Podcast: 180. Applied Anarcho-Capitalism with Doug Casey

Yeah it was a good one. That's where I got the reference.
