Argentina was unable to identify one of the major individuals linked to the launch of Libra, a meme coin promoted by President Javier Mirei on social media. Interpol Singapore was unable to identify the individual identified as Julian Peh, CEO of the KIP protocol, which is associated with Libra Token.
Libra Case Watch: Argentinean Authorities Cannot Verify Julianpe’s Identity in KIP Protocol
The case of Libra, a memecoin promoted by Argentine President Javier Mailei, continues to raise questions as authorities were unable to find some of the key masterminds behind the launch. According to local media, Julian Peh is called the CEO of KIP Protocol, a project that builds “a mission-critical infrastructure and a pipeline deployed by AI developers.”
Local records show Interpol Singapore responded to a request from Argentinean authorities that said there were no records of individuals identified as Julian Peh in the country based on data provided in the search. Additionally, local migration authorities were unable to identify the entrance to Argentina associated with the designated PEH passport number.
Peh, who also attended the Tech Forum event and met with President Milei in 2024, may have abandoned the authorities using the Chinese name Bai Qihao. Nevertheless, the government registration shows that someone known as Julian Peh met President Miley on October 19th, discussing how KIP’s decentralized AI technology “supports Argentina.”
According to Peh’s web page, he is “a visionary entrepreneur and technology leader at the forefront of the AI and Web3 revolutions,” and developed “connections within the crypto space of Latin America.”
Since February, PEH has been part of a Department of Justice (DOJ) investigation into President Javier Mailey’s involvement in launching Libra, and also mentions Kelsier Ventures’ Hayden Adams, Mauricio Novelli and Manuel Terrones Godoy.
PEH is also mentioned in a temporary restraining order (TRO) that frozen nearly $58 million in USDC linked to the Libra incident in May. This is because Omar Hurlock, represented by Burwick Law, has announced that Libra promoters will “engage in breach of abandoned marketing and consumer protection that have hurt investors.”
