Argentine Lawmakers Activate $LIBRA Probe, Cite Karina Milei and Press President With 5-Day Questionnaire

The lower-house commission armed itself with rules to request judicial assistance to compel testimony and to seek exchange and wallet records tracking 109 transfers linked to the token.

Overview

  • The Comisión Investigadora $LIBRA approved an internal regulation that lets it ask a judge for public-force assistance to ensure attendance and to request searches or seizures of documents.
  • An opposition majority advanced a witness list headed by Karina Milei and including Manuel Adorni, Guillermo Francos, Alejandro Melik, María Florencia Zicavo, Roberto Silva, Paul Starc, Mauricio Novelli, Manuel Terrones Godoy and Sergio Morales.
  • Deputies sent a nine-question questionnaire to President Javier Milei, who has five business days to respond, including how he obtained the token contract address he posted on X on February 14.
  • Forensic steps include oficios to exchanges and 16 virtual wallets to trace the liquidity pool, withdrawals and 109 transfers, plus entry and exit logs for Casa Rosada and Olivos tied to named participants.
  • Government-aligned deputies refused to back the regulation, calling it an overreach that imitates judicial powers, while the opposition defended it as standard practice, with a final report planned for early November.
