Overview
- Matías Kulfas posted a video arguing that most Argentine savings avoid the peso, citing cash kept in mattresses, safety deposit boxes and accounts abroad, and urged policies to rebuild trust in the currency.
- Pablo Quirno shared the clip and mocked the former minister with a tweet about extracting a 'material so hard for the face' to boost exports.
- Quirno followed up with the libertarian catchphrase 'Entró la balubi…' as the back-and-forth escalated.
- Kulfas replied with an image quoting a Diego Capusotto character that used a coarse phrase to tell his opponent to speak properly.
- Economist Felipe Núñez from Luis Caputo’s team joined in with a jab comparing Kulfas’s rapid posts to hyperinflation, and coverage framed the spat as reflecting the broader ideological divide over Argentina’s economic model.
