His proposals<\/a> <\/strong>for 2025 focus on greater economic freedom, including allowing citizens to transact in any currency, such as Bitcoin<\/a><\/strong>, alongside traditional fiat currencies. This move aims to enhance financial flexibility and reduce reliance on the Argentine peso.<\/p>\n

Milei\u2019s approach mirrors El Salvador\u2019s Bitcoin adoption model but is tailored to Argentina’s specific needs. As part of his broader economic overhaul, Milei also announced plans to cut national taxes by up to 90%. This would ease the financial burden on individuals and local governments, allowing them to create more localized taxation systems.<\/p>\n
