Greetings from Argentina you freedom-loving Nostriches.

Austrian economist and self-identifying crypto anarchist President Javier Milei will be submitting to Congress a law that will effectively make monetary emission a crime. The BCRA (Banco Central de la República de Argentina) is effectively being legally neutered. Maybe this is how the elimination of the central bank plays out, allowing it to wither on the vine, a death by a thousand cuts.

As much as we would all like to see him nuke the bastards, perhaps this is a legal and political roadmap for other countries to follow. The reality of the situation is that elected officials who adhere to free market economics and libertarian values have to still play within existing political constructs.

I, for one, am looking forward to the post mortem of the BCRA; we're still hurtling towards its elimination, it's just not how I had envisioned it. Much more to come.

Seignorage will become a criminal offence in Argentina if Milei manages to pass this law in Congress
