A preliminary technical report on the origin of the cryptocurrency $LIBRA weakens the explanation offered by President Javier Milei regarding the tweet with which he promoted the digital asset that ended up under suspicion of fraud.
The analysis, carried out by an agency specialized in cybercrime of the Federal Police and now annexed to the judicial file, indicates that the currency was not listed on any centralized purchasing platform and that only a single actor had “absolute primary control” on the billion units of $LIBRA created on February 14, 2025, at 18:38.
This is the account that in the investigation was identified as a founding wallet of the project, under the control of the Hayden Davis.
When the case exploded, with the massive withdrawal of funds and the immediate collapse of the currency, Milei said in an interview that he had promoted a currency that “was public”although He never explained where he obtained the 44-character alphanumeric contract which makes it possible to buy a currency that was not listed anywhere and had been created 23 minutes before.
In that same interview, he referred to the victims as “volatility operators” and stated that it was necessary to be a “hyper-specialized” person and be “re-internalized” on the subject to buy the asset of which he had become aware.
“(…) at the time of publication of the token – the report states – it is not listed on centralized exchanges, Therefore, users for initial access depend on the information released about the project.or from the sending from the initial address that has the tokens available for distribution.”
The only local platform that managed to put $LIBRA as a purchase option was Ripio, but only at 9:40 p.m.
The report underpinned what the crypto expert Fernando Molina had anticipated when declaring in the Chamber of Deputies: that That code was not available anywhere on the internet at 7:01 p.m., when Milei published it.
The work of the Police – which is preliminary – adds to other information accumulated in the file that puts under tension the Head of State’s explanation of how aware he was of the project. The expert opinion carried out on the telephone Mauricio Novellithe local lobbyist who would have sent the proposal to the President, indicated that Milei was on the phone with him in the minutes before and after the tweet.
That day, Novelli was in Texas, United States, meeting with Hayden Davis, as he announced at the time. Clarion. In this regard, the businessman said in an interview: “Don’t make me public enemy number 1. It’s not that I hacked him or anything. I was in the room with people who represented the President. He said what he was going to do. “He was on the phone.”
From the same expert report, an image emerged with blurry text in which, days before the launch of $POUNDdescribed a alleged agreement 5,000,000 dollars to condition the president’s actions Milei in networks.
