Leaked Notes Reveal $5M Payment Plan Behind Milei's Libra Token Push
Recovered phone data from a lobbyist details a multi-million dollar payment structure tied to Argentina's president promoting a crypto token.
A lobbyist's recovered phone has blown the lid off a $5 million payment scheme connected to Argentine President Milei's promotion of the Libra crypto token.
Notes found on the device outline a three-part payment structure linking Milei and other top Argentine officials to the token's promotion. The document was recovered and reported by The Block's Zack Abrams.
The revelations add fuel to an already explosive scandal surrounding the Libra token, which has drawn intense scrutiny over the involvement of high-ranking government figures in crypto promotion.
The structured $5 million payout suggests this wasn't a casual endorsement — it was an organized operation with clear financial incentives baked in. The recovered notes provide some of the most concrete evidence yet of a direct financial pipeline between crypto promoters and political leadership.
