To this is added the judge&#8217;s ruling from 11\/6 and the information revealed by the Commission on 10\/21, which was furthermore confirmed in that judicial resolution,\u201d Ferraro shared in a Tuesday post.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Yesterday, Ferraro and Commission members met with Prosecutor Carlos Taiano, delivering what he described as critical evidence.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->According to Ferraro, the information provided included details that could be linked to indirect payments to public officials related to one of the alleged crypto dens.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Ferraro emphasized that the Commission acted within its oversight mandate, saying the report aims to determine what political actions or omissions \u201callowed, facilitated, or failed to prevent the development of this case.\u201d<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->While Congress prepares to release its findings, on-chain analysts detected major wallet activity linked to the LIBRA case.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->According to blockchain researcher Fernando Molina, two dormant wallets, \u201c<em>Milei CATA<\/em>\u201d and \u201c<em>Libra: Team Wallet 1<\/em>\u201d suddenly liquidated their USDC positions, totaling more than $58 million, and swapped the stablecoin for SOL.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->These wallets had been inactive for nine months. The SOL was then moved to another address known as <em>FKp1t<\/em>.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"neo-blockquote yf-1vulftw\">\n<p class=\"yf-1vulftw\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->\u201cThe first interpretation\u2026 is that they did it so that the money cannot be frozen\u2026 it may be the last time we see this money visible,\u201d Molina noted.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->He also highlighted that US authorities froze and later unfroze the funds after determining there was \u201cno risk,\u201d while Argentine prosecutors have repeatedly sought freezing orders since April.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Crucially, SOL cannot be frozen, unlike USDC, a detail that fuels speculation about the timing and intent behind the transfers, especially with the Commission\u2019s report being released today.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div style=\"display: none\" data-testid=\"read-more\">\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Ferraro stressed that the Commission\u2019s mission was never symbolic.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"neo-blockquote yf-1vulftw\">\n<p class=\"yf-1vulftw\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->\u201cPolitical oversight is not an institutional formality, but an indispensable obligation to preserve the integrity of the State\u2026 we are going to present a serious and compelling final report.\u201d<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->The Commission argues that it achieved more in months than others did with significantly more time, framing today\u2019s release as a turning point for institutional accountability in Argentina\u2019s cryptocurrency governance.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->The publication of the final report will set the stage for judicial follow-through, potential political consequences, and renewed scrutiny of LIBRA-linked wallets, which are now shifting funds beyond the reach of freezing orders.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->With prosecutors actively investigating alleged indirect payments and on-chain analysts warning those recent transactions may be the last visible traces of key funds, today\u2019s findings could reshape the next phase of Argentina\u2019s ongoing crypto crackdown.<!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<p class=\"yf-1090901\"><!-- HTML_TAG_START -->Read original story <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\/argentina-libra-crypto-investigation\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Argentina\u2019s LIBRA Investigation Climaxes But $58 Million Moves Before Final Report;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">Argentina\u2019s LIBRA Investigation Climaxes But $58 Million Moves Before Final Report<\/a> by Lockridge Okoth at <a href=\"https:\/\/beincrypto.com\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:beincrypto.com;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\" class=\"link \">beincrypto.com<\/a><!-- HTML_TAG_END --><\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/finance.yahoo.com\/news\/argentina-libra-investigation-climaxes-58-185757621.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Source link <\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Argentina LIBRA case.
