Thank you that’s very enlightening. So there are two possible forces. Individuals in Argentina, desperately needing dollars and probably needing a lot more of them because the US dollar is sliding in value.
Maybe it’s a lot easier for the cartels to launder their dollars because they need to deal in a larger volume..
@GhostOnTheHalfShell the US dollar might be sliding in value but inflation in argentina hit something like 300% a few months ago so it's not really comparable. they love dollars.
also just to clarify, i haven't seen good information about how this works w/argentinian pesos, but the tripartite money laundry between china -> mexican cartels -> american consumers is extremely well documented. i've also seen some information on how this works in the european context w/the italian mafia and dubai cartels,
i have trouble believing that it doesn't work the same way in argentina.
That’s news to me. The last I looked at the situation in Argentina the inflation had leveled off some, but I think what you’re saying is it’s gone back up again.
I wouldn’t doubt this is because the peso has collapsed. Argentina has depleted its foreign reserves, trying to prop it up.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell i haven't been following it but from what i do know you are right, it had leveled off recently but it did an enormous spike when milei came in and stopped supporting the currency. i heard it went from ~70-100% per year to ~300%+ basically overnight, then milei stepped in and supported it again and then it died back down.
but it "died back down" to 47% (i just checked), which is unthinkable hyperinflation to those of us with stabler currencies.
Because I’ve looked into the topic hyperinflation with respect to the Weimar republic.. 50% or so per year I think would not technically be called hyperinflation. For most people I think it’s distinction without a difference.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell yeah i dunno where i'd draw the line for "hyperinflation" vs. regular "really bad inflation", maybe around 100% per year or something. but like you said, kind of a distinction w/out a difference. at a certain point you just automatically start trying to move all your money to a stabler currency, and that point is probably lower than 47%.
p.s. turkey has been struggling w/around 70% inflation and USDT is also popular there, but they have no capital controls so they can also just buy dollars.
p.p.s. a serbian friend of mine once said "i lived through a war and i lived through #hyperinflation and to be honest i preferred the war"
The horror stories from the Weimar Republic involve people with wheel barrels of money.
Men would sprint home to deliver their paychecks to their wives, who would then sprint to the store to purchase things before the money became useless.
It’s hard to comprehend just how bad that episode was. The Smithsonian actually has an article on what happened.
People starved to death in Berlin. Mobs of armed men pillaged farms for crops and cattle. People would also mob ships arriving at port for basic food stuff like butter, flour, sugar, and pork. Individuals lost everything and social order completely collapsed.
Frankly, I think it was a miracle there was not a major revolution in 1923 although Adolf tried to overthrow the Bavarian government and failed.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell a lot of reporting i've seen in WSJ and other places at least suggests that Argentina is probably tether's biggest legitimate-ish market. unfortunately no one brings any numbers and the argentinians are all trading on chinese exchanges so it's all very opaque (and trust me i have tried).
but that's what the reporting suggests.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell Vice had a good video on the way the 3 way money laundry works (china/mexico/USA) that has some animations:
vicetv.com/en_us/video/making-…
it's complicated and tbh it took me watching this and various similar videos from FT etc. to fully grok how it works. but if you're interested the animations and diagrams in the vice piece are the best i've seen.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell capital controls in argentina, however, mean that they can't legally buy very many dollars.
this is where crypto as end run around the legal system comes in.
i'm somewhat sympathetic to argentinians who buy tether, tbh. i just hope they don't get rug pulled.
That is somewhat ironic, Miele’s relationship to Silicon Valley billionaires and own indulgence in crypto.
Here he is trying to save the peso and it’s being obliterated by the libertarian instrument of evading regulation.
Just a bit ironic I think
The only problem with libertarianism is pretty soon you have to lean on a billionaire sugar daddy.
Whatever happened to him morale, hazard, and consequences?

it's really frustrating having conversations with fandom-brained people sometimes
I'm here trying to explain why a certain writing choice is giving me the opposite reaction of what I think was intended in a given situation,
and people start explaining how it makes sense from an in-universe perspective...
@Taweret I don't think I've heard the term "diegetic" before now and I had to wiktionary it, so I wouldn't have recognized it.
I remember Doylist and Watsonian because Arthur Conan Doyle wrote Sherlock Holmes, so "Doylist" is out-of-universe and Watson was Holmes' sidekick, so "Watsonian" is in universe.
But since I don't think most people know what that means I usually use the more cumbersome "in universe" and "out of universe"
