Excitement in Argentina
He seems like an extreme new leader ideologically speaking, but is that what is called for today in some parts of the world - such as inflation-ridden Argentina?
Very briefly here — the election of Javier Milei is a strong positive for Bitcoin and the crypto economy.
He’s now the President-elect of a country, Argentina, with an economy at least 20x the size of El Salvador’s. Huge freshwater and lithium deposits in Argentina, it’s been reported — as well as a stable agricultural economy with advanced tech industry elements.
El Salvador, of course, was the first country to make Bitcoin legal tender.
Milei hasn’t exactly promised to make Bitcoin legal tender, but he has sung its virtues in televised and recorded interviews numerous times — he sees it as one avenue, among several, for the Argentine public to recover from years of triple digit percentage inflation of their peso.
He has also pledged to end Argentina’s central bank, calling it variously a “scam” and “bullshit.”
Glad so many of you have appreciated the recent livestreams on TikTok. Again, easily get old streams over in the Series tab of my profile page there.
Some of you have asked what’s the BEST way to send an end of year tip. I mean, any way is good. You’re beautiful people.
Our Stripe page is super convenient, everyone should leave a tip on there simply to experience the efficiency, if for no other reason lol. You can tip in multi-$10 increments there.

We’re almost in 2024… is it really only 42 days or so until the new year?
If you’re still TikTok averse — find our recent videos over on our Rumble channel.
