    Are there Cuevas that allow me to exchange USDC stable coins for pesos?

    Was this more recently, because they were under pressure from various regulatory bodies? Not sure if this helps you, but I believe Gemini has services for Argentina.

    Is Argentina being sabotaged from abroad?

    For those of you who thing Argentina will get “successful” with no worry about external powers, how do you define success? Dubai with all of it’s cool buildings? Kuala Lumpur? South Korea? Why is the United Nations run by a few powerful countries who can do and get away with so many things...

    Is Argentina being sabotaged from abroad?

    Yes, it’s true that people play the victim game, and often are no better themselves if they were in a position of power. But in trying to counter those things let’s not over do it and say that it’s all your fault, because the “others” do indeed often sabotage and prey on weaker countries and...

    Are there Cuevas that allow me to exchange USDC stable coins for pesos?

    So would this be the cheapest way to transfer money, since there is no western union fee? What about the cost of converting to USDC? Also, if you can do this then why bring the $10K or whatever minimum cash to the country through the airport?

    Is Argentina being sabotaged from abroad?

    Conspiracy I think involves a coordinated action by multiple people, and not just one. That maybe makes it hard to prove, but it does happen. But if you believe in the existence of a collective consciousness, you can argue that all actions involve a state of multiple minds and group thinking...

    Buying a property in Buenos Aires

    Interesting that you mention roach problem. I have some experience with that. I don’t like to kill roaches and other non-predatory or less predatory insects. I mainly kill spiders. I had a roach problem and spent alots of time with roaches as a result. They actually generally are very good...

    Keeping US cell phone number for text & talk when moving there

    I have a Google voice number that came up as N for “Is Wireless,” but it was an original free Google voice number and not a real number that I transferred to it. Would a real number transferred to Google Voice also be N?

    Buenos Aires Tango Festival and World Cup kicks off this week

    I’m surprised tango originated in the 1880s https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tango. Seems way ahead of its time. Was it cool back in the 1880’s too? https://www.libraryofdance.org/dances/early-tango/

    Argentinian Music

    That’s great. I like that kind of music with mix of orchestra and modern instruments. There’s a genre of heavy mental called symphonic metal that also does that sort of thing but with heavier instruments. If you’re not familiar already, you might also like the live performance of the band...

    Argentinian Music

    That’s cool. I like how it started with piano and then brought in the various instruments. Well composed. Thanks. The song is similar in some ways to one of my favorite artists, Peter Gundry:

    Argentinian Music

    What are some cool Argentinian bands? I listen to all kinds of music, from traditional, classic rock, electronic, pop, heavy metal, alternative, various languages, etc. Here is some taste of my music. Also, I hardly ever listen to the words in songs, even if they’re in a language I uderstand...

    tax for foreigners

    What if you get a home in Argentina and stay less than 183 days each year? Is there still a way one might be liable for income tax, for example, based under the “center of affairs” or some other rule? That’s basically what that video I posted was saying, that just staying in some countries...

    tax for foreigners

    Are there any caveats to the 183 day rule in Argentina? This video below seems to say that the 183 day rules around the world sometimes have other ways that they might get triggered:

    Is there any use for crypto in Argentina?

    Just to clarify regarding your article that says you can’t transfer your crypto out of PayPal, later PayPal said that they will work on allowing this feature as well. https://www.thestreet.com/crypto/bitcoin/paypal-to-start-allowing-bitcoin-withdrawals

    Is there any use for crypto in Argentina?

    That’s an interesting question and I’d like to know the answer as well. I’ve been assuming that perhaps lots of the transactions might be done by a 3rd party company such as Paypal for example, where you’d hold crypto on their platform and through their app you make the purchase, and like how...

    Looking for a furnished apartment

    Interesting. Another thing that I’m not sure is a valid concern, but someone mentioned in another thread regarding inflation, was that once upon a time Argentina had inflation issues and then adopted a peg to the dollar. Would that make the peso suddenly worth much more? If something like...

    Argentina’s President Calls Crypto a ‘Hard Currency’ that Can Fight Inflation

    That article didn’t mention bitcoin, but other news sources were attributing what the president said to bitcoin, see below: https://decrypt.co/78424/argentina-open-adopting-bitcoin-president-alberto-fernandez “During an interview on Caja Negra, aired by Filo.news yesterday, Fernandez was asked...
