Javier Milei was already a deputy in 2022. For that reason, his environment advised him not to promote a company that, with a facade of “Crypto Company” had all the ribotes of a pyramidal scam. “I told him not to propagand who was then very close to the current president. He was ignored.
“There was no case,” follows the liberal militant who in the middle of that year would end up being ejected from Milei’s small table. And complete: “He considers legitimate charge for spreading these financial frauds and doctrinarily believe that Ponzi schemes are normal market facts and that they should not be prohibited. ”
For that, or for another reason, Milei not only promoted the company that is still investigated for fraud to its clientsbut also today and already being president, it retains the post in networks supporting the Crypto company.
Not even the arrest of the financier who appears by giving him a handshake, he made him remove the media support. Francisco José Hauque, head of Coinx, arrested him for alleged gender violence days ago and in his vehicle they found two kilos of cocaine and weapons. The president’s relations could be somewhat dangerous.
Promotion
Milei never explained how much he charged, and how, for the alleged advice and advertising of the Crypt company. In a video he published on his networks on the last day of 2021 he saw him entering the company: “I had the pleasure of knowing the offices of @coinx.world and your team ”, He wrote then on Instagram. “The way of investment is revolutionized to help Argentines escape inflation. You can simulate your investment in pesos, dollars or cryptocurrencies and obtain gain, ”he added.
Then the recommendation ended: “Write them from me so they advise them with the best.” Many libertarian militants confessed to having entered the system investigated as a pyramid scam by the Virtual Council of Milei.
In mid -2022, The National Securities Commission intimidated the Coinx platform to cease its investment advice activity. For that height, Milei had already relativized his role in the company: “I gave my opinion”, said In a radio interview with you. According to his story, from the company they had called him so that from a personal valuation: “They took money, with that they bought titles in dollars, and with that devaluation that was generated they paid you in many higher pesos than those paid by the Market, which were regulated by the Central Bank. That, in addition, allowed them to have anchief to invest in the crypto farm they had, and there they generated cryptocurrencies and had more money. The business was well armed, ”he said about the operation of the company that promised sidereal money returns, the biggest reason to suspect that he could end badly.
“They did not want to modify some issues that I marked them and I decided not to continue doing things with them. They did not accept a suggestion of modifying some parameters and decided to go to another scheme, ”he said in the same interview.
It was not the only defense that the then deputy would make of Coinx: En networks also argued with those who looked like pyramidal scam. “Coinx paid everyone,” he said. “They let themselves be operated by the hitmen of together for the change, ”he protested. After in 2023 the company was denounced in justice, ceased to refer to this issue.
Gray
Milei never explained his assets in depth, beyond the obligatory affidavits of every public official. Is that for those years in Congress, he raffled his salary among his militants as a form of promotionand that opened the question about how he managed to stay.
To set up doubts, in their surroundings they suggest that he lived from advising companies, which opens the door to other questions: Which ones should not be public information taking into account that as a deputy or president there could be conflicts of interest? That was never answered.
In early 2022, when Coinx advised and advertised, while donating his salary as a legislator, The libertarian economist moved to a country whose rent of the houses costs, on average, about two thousand dollars. His lifestyle improved substantially.
Milei was even able to overcome the economic crisis of 2023, the one that served as a springboard to reach the Rivadavia armchair. According to his last affidavit, the year began with a patrimony of 21 million and finished ithaving assumed as the first president, with 125 million. An increase of 495%. More than double than inflation.
Although much of the capital increase was due to an increase in the valuation of its goods, the other party becomes more diffuse. It is that in the presentation, which was published at the end of 2024, the president declared an account in dollars for 20 thousand, the same one that had the previous yearbut added a dollar saving box with more than 65 thousand dollars.
In Casa Rosada they usually do not pay attention to the requests for explanations about the president’s assets. That is why they ignored the information about the detention of the head of Coinx, the man who was advised by Milei. But the police scandal is a call for attention to the businessmen with whom the libertarian economist did business.
