Charles Hoskinson, founder of Cardano, will meet with Argentina’s President Javier Milei in October to discuss blockchain’s role in shaping future economies.
Scheduled for October 19 at the Tech Forum Argentina, the meeting aims to explore blockchain’s impact on global systems and evaluate the possibility of Argentina adopting a central bank digital currency (CBDC).
Hoskinson anticipates a broad discussion on blockchain’s potential beyond just Cardano, reflecting his belief in its transformative power. He characterized President Milei as a proponent of free-market and cryptocurrency principles, aligning with the views of historical economic figures like Ludwig von Mises.
Cardano’s ties with Argentina are deep-rooted, with the network’s presence in the country strengthened by recent partnerships and early development efforts from local firms. Milei’s support for cryptocurrencies has been evident, including his endorsements of Cardano on social media.
As Cardano advances into its Voltaire era, focusing on decentralized governance, Hoskinson looks forward to ongoing debates within the community about policy and governance, highlighting the importance of diverse perspectives in shaping the platform’s future.
