I don't understand this mentality. Is there any anger for expats that moved to Argentina because it was an affordable option? I read a few posts where locals seem to be angry at foreigners or tourists that come to Argentina because it was affordable. Why or how is this a problem? It would make...

That is hilarious that Milei kept crying how they wouldn't do business with China during his campaign and now China is going to print Argentina's currency. If that ain't funny I don't know what is!

From everything that people that I met in Argentina told me is that it is impossible to dollarize in Argentina. Funny because the lady that rented me one of my Airbnb also just sent me a Whatsapp that she will have a new apartment in January. She just offered that as another option. She told...

I heard from my friends there now that it is much slower than last year. My friend went this time last year too and he said that not as many and also said prices are over 150% to 200% more than this time last year on everything. Crazy how things can change so quickly.

Many of these cryptos are extremely volatile. All of these ETF's probably add more volatility into the mix. Let's see what happens if the USA gets pulled into a war. Crypto hasn't gone through a scenario like that so no telling what could happen.

I looked into renting a car during my trip to drive out to an estancia but it wasn't worth it. Really expensive but the biggest reason is that people drive terribly in BA!

Crazy! I didn't know escorts made so much in Argentina. That is surprising. It sounds like she is famous or something. It says in the article travel companion. Damn. That's a lot of cash for one person to have in their house. Aren't people afraid of break ins or robbery? Just saw her X. She is...

Thanks for posting this. Didn't see it. Just watched his YT. There just isn't much adoption with BCH compared to Bitcoin and it will probably always be that way.

It would be great if Amazon expands down to BA. I had to ask my Airbnb owner to order some stuff on Mercado Libre for me. Actually ML works fairly well just a pain that you can't use it without residency there.

For all the hype about Argentina being pro-crypto, I didn't find that to be the case at all during my trip. Seems like they mostly want to deal with USDT. They have a long way to go and no one there wants to accept crypto. I went to a few property developers and NO ONE wants to accept crypto.

Well it sounds like many of the people disapproving of him are people he is firing. Others are elderly that he rejected pension increases. I just read he cut 28,000 needless jobs. And saved $36+ billion dollars.

It's funny because I read articles like this that say Argentina has abundant cheap electricity and then yesterday I read of power outages and planned outages this summer as they don't have enough capacity. :ROFLMAO...

Negative news about the poverty seems like it's starting to make it's way now. For a while there was just positive news about the turn around there but the poverty levels are really bad. Just saw on ABC them talking about it. Is that trend expected to get worse...

Has anyone used Reby? I just read a post about them converting USDT to USD. Are they reliable? What kind of rates do they have?

This constant blame game won't end. Just read this today. Sounds like a bit of BS on both sides. They are claiming 95% of the population would be at poverty levels if Milei didn't win...

I ate there. I didn't think it was anything special at all. Their website is still up. They should take it down. That was one of the annoying things to me. Sometimes I would go to places that Google Maps showed open but when I went it was closed or out of business. At least Google Maps is...

Realistically how would this happen? Argentina has no reserves, no access to foreign credit markets and HUGE multi-billion dollar debts that are due in 2025, 2026 and 2027.

It doesn't sound like things will change. I just read that Argentina is allowing ALL Venezuelans in even without documents. How does that make sense? I understand people that have no criminal records but this reminds me of what they are doing in the USA just letting tons of Venezuelans in...

Dang that is some big increases. I won't complain about our inflation here in the States after seeing these jumps up.

When I was in BA earlier this year I saw a lot of people just jumping the turnstiles and not paying. Maybe this is a factor too. Not sure how common that is. 600% increase in less than a year is insane.
