Vault Footage and Crypto Trails Deepen $LIBRA Probe

Prosecutors have begun seeking Interpol records with foreign telecom data to trace unverified transfers via Bitget, Gate.io.

Overview

  • CCTV stills show Mauricio Novelli, his mother and sister accessing at least four safety deposit boxes at Banco Galicia on February 4 and emptying them on February 17.
  • Blockchain analyst Fernando Molina traced Hayden Davis’s personal wallet to reveal a $507,500 transfer via Bitget 42 minutes after his January 30 Casa Rosada meeting with President Milei, followed by moves totaling nearly $2 million on February 3.
  • U.S. court filings show Davis reimbursed $5 million to David Portnoy, a transaction that exposed his personal crypto wallet and spurred cross-border asset tracing.
  • Prosecutor Eduardo Taiano has requested records from Interpol, Singaporean authorities and local telecom providers to map the flow of $LIBRA-related funds.
  • Crypto experts warn that focusing only on major platforms overlooks critical data held by Gate.io and Bitget and urge investigators to broaden the exchange probe.
