I'll be in Argentina on business. And I'm a seller of Bitcoin.

So let's say I sell 15 - 20 Bitcoins to the locals.  What the hell do I do with a pocket full of pesos (the hotel has specified settlement in USD)?

since their fiat is less valuable, i'd assume they'd have to pay you more in peso for a bitcons.

you can flash your bling and get argentine chicks, i guess?

Spend Bitcoin wherever you can while you're there, even the smaller cities seem to have a Bitcoin presence if you check coinmap.org. Buy any USD you need with BTC once you're in Argentina.

Nothing....  Sad
Try to pay for goods and services using BTC while you are there.
You will be treated as a king, probably get some good deals, and the Argentinians will get some REAL value for their work/goods.
Even if they do not know what BTC is all about, they'll probably prefer anything to their devalued worthless pesos.
Good Luck!

I wish they would. It would at least get a lot of those stupid valueless pesos out of circulation.

A percentage of people at the top with the means to acquire Bitcoin certainly will.
You can exchange 10,000 pesos for BTC. Or 100 pesos. Or 10 pesos. Or 1 peso.

Anyone can do it, you don't have to be rich. Yet another anti-Bitcoin myth / FUD.

That's true. Anyone can take a hundred bucks and go buy bitcoin. It's not exclusive to people buying multiple BTC.

massively invest in bitcoin to avoid pesos crisis?

Money can't get in and out easily. So even bitcoin is hopeless in this case.

Argentina women have clearly questionable moral standards.  Cheesy
