They are going to adopt the dollar. He’s been very clear on that. The Central Bank has no dollars, so it’s going to be tricky to pull off.

It took 9 months in Ecuador. Maybe they can get it done in 6. But he doesn’t take the reins until December 10th.

Practically nothing happens during ‘summer’ at this time, neither December or January when everyone hits the beaches. That can perhaps work to his benefit.

But once they have some stability to the country, maybe then they can consider an alternative model. And bring in private money, but I sense he’ll have bigger problems than doing that. There’s only so much he can achieve in his tenure don’t forget.

Adopting the dollar is going to stop that crazy inflation in its tracks, but it’s also going to cause havoc for all the free education, bus passes etc, and government employees out of work, not to mention raising money in international markets. Those people affected are going to be kicking and screaming. It’s not all sunshine and rainbows initially. Their economy has been sooo distorted for decades now. With so many peculiar side effects, like people’s sole job to be to check and enforce prices. Currency speculation and FX. I’m sure there are some Argentine’s that can share other peculiarities.

Definitely going to be very interesting to monitor. But don’t expect any movements towards Bitcoin I wouldn’t say. More likely the crypto dollar (or USDT).

my "conspiracy" theory ;) is that he didn't say a lot about Bitcoin just to increase his chances for election - because it would be surely utilised as a weapon against him (whether we like it or not)

but I remember some recent interview where he highlighted Nayib Bukele and El Salvador as the proper example how the things should look like, so I'm slight but optimist here :)
