More revelations about Novelli's phone: another agreement with the creators of LIBRA under the shadow of his connection with Milei
Investigations revealed a previously unknown agreement from November 2024 linking lobbyist Mauricio Novelli to the creators of the failed cryptocurrency LIBRA, connected to Javier Milei.
New details about the phone of tech lobbyist Mauricio Novelli have emerged, revealing an agreement from November 21, 2024, involving the launch of the unsuccessful cryptocurrency $LIBRA. This deal is thought to have been facilitated by Novelli's connection to Javier Milei, the current president of Argentina. The agreement was found among documents extracted from Novelliβs phone, indicating that his role as a liaison between Milei and Hayden Davis, a key figure in the token's downfall, was more significant than previously understood. The agreement of 2024, reported by La NaciΓ³n, highlights the complex relationships between politicians and lobbyists in Argentina, particularly in the context of the libertarian government's approach to cryptocurrency. Novelli had previously been excluded from the Milei campaign for offering crypto tools, but his reestablishment of ties with the president after Milei took office underscores the fluid dynamics of political alliances in this new administration. This revelation could have important implications as it draws attention to the intersection of politics and cryptocurrency in Argentina, especially given the ongoing judicial investigation led by prosecutor Eduardo Taiano into the LIBRA token's failure. The connections between Novelli, Milei, and the financial backers further complicate the narrative of accountability and transparency within the Argentine government and may influence public perception and trust in the current administration's policies regarding cryptocurrencies.
