BAES 88: This kid just stole $100 millio...

Ben and Emil
About this episode

President Javier Milei tweeted on Valentine’s Day about $LIBRA, a token he said would help raise funds that would go directly to small businesses and help Argentina’s economic growth.


It reached $4.56 billion market cap before absolutely collapsing, making insiders over $100 million in profits.


So what happened? Who was involved? Who’s going to prison? And WHERE DID ALL THAT MONEY GO? It’s a veritable who’s who of the recent crypto mania, including big names like Dave Portnoy, Adin Ross, the "LA Vape Cabal" and other clowns.


It is the most incredible story we’ve heard in years.
