In Buenos Aires, Argentina is embracing cryptocurrency as a potential economic transformer, contrasting with the U.S. regulatory approach. The Argentine government is collaborating with the crypto sector, with events like Regulation Day and a hackathon organized by Crecimientoar, supported by Filecoin, highlighting this engagement. The hackathon offers a $100,000 prize pool, with submissions due by August 26, 2024. Argentine officials express support for integrating crypto technology, with Roberto Silva, likened to the 'Gary Gensler of Argentina,' emphasizing a pro-crypto stance. Special Economic Zones are also being explored as a potential opportunity for Argentina to become a 'Crypto Nation.'
The Gary Gensler of Argentina - Roberto Silva - said at the @crecimientoar Regulation Day: “We are 100% in favor of normalization of technology of the crypto world.” "The SEC model is to sue cryptocurrencies, claiming they are irregular. We do not follow that model." https://t.co/vIXOwYV6gp
I booked my flight to Buenos Aires for October for two important reasons: First, Avalanche is gaining significant momentum with all the progress being made. Second, Argentina has the most passionate crypto community, deeply committed to fundamental values. See you in 🇦🇷with 🧉 https://t.co/cYU6SwyeRf
A quote from an Argentine official yesterday: "As the U.S. regulatory environment drives crypto innovation and talent offshore, an opportunity for global leadership has emerged" Nice going, @POTUS https://t.co/F0wNoOcwup
