Argentine Presidential Office: The President has asked the Anti-Corruption Office to intervene and set up an investigative team

the Office of the President of Argentina issued a statement on the release of the LIBRA token, stating:

"On October 19, President Javier Mile met with representatives of KIP Protocol in Argentina, where he learned that the company plans to develop a project called Viva la Libertad, using blockchain technology to provide funding for private enterprises in the Argentine Republic. The national president attended the meeting and was officially registered in the public hearing log; KIP Protocol company representatives Mauricio Novellli and Julian Peh; and presidential spokesman Manuel Adorni.

In this context, on January 30, 2025, the president held a meeting at the Pink Palace with Hayden Mark Davis, according to representatives of KIP Protocol, Davis will provide the technical infrastructure for his project. Mr. Davis has had no past or present relationship with the Argentine government, and the representatives of KIP Protocol introduced him as one of the partners of the project.

Finally, yesterday, the president shared a post on his personal account announcing the launch of the KIP Protocol project, just as he does every day with many entrepreneurs who want to start projects in Argentina to create job opportunities and attract investment. Since he has not been involved in the development of any cryptocurrency, after the project launch generated a reaction, in order to avoid any speculation and not spread further, he decided to delete the tweet.

Given the facts, President Javier Mile decided to immediately request the Anti-Corruption Office (OA) to intervene to determine if any members of the national government, including the president himself, engaged in improper conduct.

On the other hand, the president decided to establish an investigation working group (UTI) within the presidential palace, composed of representatives from institutions and organizations related to cryptocurrencies, financial activities, money laundering, and other related fields, who will integrate information and conduct an urgent investigation into the launch of the cryptocurrency $LIBRA and all companies or individuals involved in the above actions."

All information collected during the investigation will be handed over to the court to determine if any companies or individuals related to the KIP Protocol project have committed any crimes. President Mile has shown his commitment to the truth through his actions, and he is dedicated to thoroughly clarifying the truth of this event until the final outcome.

  • Morgan Stanley: 2028 as a Key Observation Point for Global Memory Competition Landscape

    On August 29, Morgan Stanley pointed out that the rise of Chinese memory manufacturers should not be viewed merely as a technological catch-up or low-cost substitution; what is truly noteworthy is that their production capacity may gradually become large enough to alter the supply structure of the global memory market. Changxin Technology and Yangtze Memory Technologies are currently entering the mainstream product market and gradually extending into high-profit markets such as HBM, high-end server DRAM, and enterprise SSDs. Morgan Stanley considers 2028 as an important observation point for the global memory competition landscape. From 2026 to 2027, demand for AI servers, capacity crowding of advanced wafers by HBM, import substitution, and the time required for customer certification may absorb most of the new supply from Chinese memory manufacturers. By 2028, as Chinese manufacturers expand production, the additional capacity from Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron, which had previously initiated expansions, will also be released. At that time, the supply variables in the global memory market will significantly increase. Morgan Stanley estimates that Changxin's DRAM monthly production capacity will rise from 180,000 wafers in 2025 to 300,000 in 2026, accounting for approximately 13% of global DRAM wafer capacity and about 11% of bit shipments; by 2028, it is expected to further increase to 500,000 wafers, and by 2031, it could reach 800,000 wafers. If the expansion proceeds smoothly, Changxin's global DRAM bit shipment market share could approach 15% by 2030, and it may even have the opportunity to surpass Micron in production capacity around 2028, becoming the third-largest DRAM supplier in the world.
