Argentina is scheduled to receive a $45 billion bailout from the International Monetary Fund (IMF) but the assistance comes with a catch that the country must adopt an anti-cryptocurrency position.
This requirement underscores the IMF’s concerns about the possible adverse impact of cryptocurrency on financial stability and economic recovery efforts.
The bailout is intended to aid in the stabilization of Argentina’s faltering economy, which has been plagued by high inflation, budget deficits, and mounting debt.
The national government is expected to take steps to limit the use of cryptocurrencies and associated activities within the country as part of the agreement.
124 copies of The #Bitcoin Standard (Dutch version) delivered to each representative of the Flemish Parliament in Brussels
Translation of the attached note (Original in Dutch)
Dear Flemish People's Representative,
You are receiving this book, along with hundreds of other politicians around the world. 131 donors have contributed to deliver these 124 copies to the Flemish Parliament. Similar actions are already underway in the United States, the United Kingdom, Australia, Finland, Germany and the Philippines.
The Bitcoin Standard is the most widely read book on Bitcoin. It has now been published in 36 languages. This book is the conclusion of years of research into the economic problems caused by the current money system, how previous societies solved these problems and how bitcoin can provide a solution for modern society.
However, the book is in no way an advertisement for bitcoin or an invitation to purchase bitcoin yourself.
A critical view is necessary, but do not be put off by the overload of misinformation currently circulating about bitcoin in the media.
Bitcoin belongs to the people, for the people.
We wish you a lot of reading pleasure.
