Argentine President Javier Milei spoke on the phone with an entrepreneur linked to the Libra crypto token at least seven times on the night he promoted the cryptocurrency on X, according to call logs obtained by Argentine prosecutors and reviewed by The New York Times – new documentary evidence that directly challenges Milei’s repeated public assertion that he had no connection whatsoever with the project whose subsequent collapse cost investors an estimated $251 million.
The call logs, which prosecutors investigating the Libra crypto token’s collapse secured as part of an ongoing Argentine judicial inquiry, indicate the communications occurred both before and after Milei published his February 14, 2025 post on X promoting Libra as a vehicle to grow Argentina’s economy by funding small businesses and startups.
The contents of the calls have not been established, and no charges specific to these communications have been filed as of publication.
