Argentine President Javier Milei just pulled the plug on the task force investigating the Libra meme coin scandal—because nothing says ’free market’ like burying financial oversight. Critics call it a blatant move to shield crypto grifters, while Bitcoin maximalists shrug and mutter ’told you so.’

The shuttered probe had been chasing leads on the 2023 pump-and-dump scheme that vaporized millions in retail investor funds. Now? Case closed—just like transparency under Milei’s ’anarcho-capitalist’ revolution. Bonus irony: the man who campaigned against political corruption just gave crypto scammers the ultimate get-out-of-jail-free card.
