Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson is set to meet with Argentina’s President Javier Milei in October to discuss the role of cryptocurrency in shaping the country’s economy.
The meeting, scheduled for October 19, will take place during the Tech Forum Argentina, where Hoskinson will engage in discussions about the potential of blockchain technology in transforming economic and social systems.
The talks will cover a range of topics, including Argentina’s approach to technology and its potential adoption of a central bank digital currency (CBDC).
The upcoming meeting builds on Cardano’s already strong ties with Argentina.
The Cardano Foundation has been active in the country, establishing multiple partnerships to promote local blockchain adoption.
In June 2024, the foundation signed another agreement to further integrate blockchain technology in Argentina.
Notably, Bitcoin has had a long-standing presence in Argentina, with one of the first major crypto companies, BitPay, developing its wallet Copay there in 2012.
President Milei, known for his pro-cryptocurrency stance, has publicly endorsed Cardano on social media.
In May 2024, he reposted a Cardano-themed message from Dario Epstein and has since shared several posts from Hoskinson himself.
Milei confirmed his participation in the Tech Forum Argentina through a social media post on September 17.
