Argentine Bitcoin Experts Critique President Milei’s Crypto Agenda

Despite high expectations from Argentina’s growing crypto community, Bitcoin specialists say President Javier Milei has not made cryptocurrency a central part of his administration. At a LABITCONF press roundtable, prominent Bitcoiners Carlos Maslatón and Ramiro Marra indicated that Milei’s limited technical knowledge of blockchain and Bitcoin has hindered any meaningful policy development.

Milei, who assumed office in 2023, was expected to embrace Bitcoin for its decentralized nature and as a hedge against Argentina’s inflationary pressures. However, veteran Bitcoiners argue the government has yet to introduce substantive initiatives or appoint officials with expertise in digital assets, leaving the private sector to drive adoption.
