Notably, Gurbacs thinks that President Javier Milei can \u2018fix the meme coin issues,\u2019 and help the nation embark on an innovative path again ahead. Conversely, the recently launched meme token extended its loss to nearly 72% amid scam and rug pull allegations.<\/p>\n<h2>VanEck\u2019s Gabor Gurbacs Weights Optimism On Libra Meme Coin<\/h2>\n<p>In an X post dated February 19, <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/gaborgurbacs\/status\/1891994892429087056\">Gabor Gurbacs said<\/a>, \u201cPresident Javier Milei had a great vision for the free competition of currencies, including payments in fiat, Bitcoin, WTI, BTU, and other real-world assets.\u201d In light of this belief, Gurbacs reflected optimism surrounding the President\u2019s future decisions that could help fix the ongoing LIBRA meme coin complications.<\/p>\n<p>The VanEck exec invited the Argentinian President to talk on vitalities that could mitigate such losses. Gurbacs reiterated the President in another post, \u201cFeel free to call anytime to reference check people and companies,\u201d warning against the sheer number of scams and risks across the sector.<\/p>\n<h2>LIBRA Meme Coin Faces Setback Amid Rug Pull Concerns<\/h2>\n<p>Meanwhile, the new meme token, backed by President Javier Milei, saw a downfall soon after its inception into the market. CoinGape reported that project insiders cashed out $107 million after a huge surge, dragging <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/trending\/argentinas-libra-token-price-crashes-90-as-insiders-cash-out-107m\/\">LIBRA coin\u2019s price down<\/a> 90%.<\/p>\n<p>Nevertheless, the Argentinian President claimed no wrongdoing, further sparking market speculations and token volatility. In turn, the crypto landscape saw an investigation launched into the matter, adding to heat on price dynamics.<\/p>\n<p>President <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/argentina-president-javier-milei-orders-probe-into-kip-protocols-libra-cryptocurrency\/\">Javier Milei ordered an investigation<\/a> into the launch of the meme coin and its links to the KIP Protocol. Nevertheless, the renowned VanEck exec believes that the rug pull concerns could be negated and worked on moving ahead, given the President\u2019s pro-crypto vision.<\/p>\n<h2>Meme Token\u2019s Price Loses Alarming Value<\/h2>\n<p>As of press time, LIBRA coin price fell over 20% in the past 24 hours, closing in at $0.2676. Its intraday low and high were $0.2617 and $0.3526, respectively. CoinMarketCap data revealed that the coin extended its loss to over 72% since launch. Crypto traders and investors have an extremely low-risk appetite for the asset amid unsure market dynamics.<\/p>\n<p>On the other hand, it\u2019s worth mentioning that Hayden Davis, CEO of Kelsier Ventures, was earlier speculated to be involved in the setback by making payments to President Milei, Coindesk reported and soon deleted. Nevertheless, Davis broke the silence, denying such claims whilst the market awaits further details on the matter as well as the meme coin.<\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on mobiless\">\n<div id=\"social-section-new\">\n<p>\u2713 Share:<\/p>\n<p>                                  <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new wp_new\" aria-label=\"whatsapp\" href=\"https:\/\/api.whatsapp.com\/send?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/vaneck-exec-remains-optimistic-on-libra-meme-coin-despite-rug-pull-concerns\/\">  <i class=\"fa fa-whatsapp\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div>\n                                <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"social-text_new tw_new_logo\" aria-label=\"Twitter\" href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/intent\/tweet?text=https:\/\/coingape.com\/vaneck-exec-remains-optimistic-on-libra-meme-coin-despite-rug-pull-concerns\/\"><br \/>\n  <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/08\/14164721\/x-logo.png\" class=\"mb-1\" alt=\"coingape\" width=\"30\" height=\"30\" \/><br \/>\n<\/a>\n                                <\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>          &lt;!&#8211; <\/p>\n<div class=\"m-on pl-2 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-6 pr-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-7-crypto-marketing-firms-of-the-year\/?utm_source=abovesidebartabnews&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img width=\"834\" height=\"833\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/15175104\/top_crypto_marketing_agencies.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top Crypto Marketing Firms \/ Agencies 2023; Here\u2019s Best Picks [Updated]\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-6 pl-2\">\n<div class=\"Borderboxies_2 mb-3  fullmobx\">\n<p>            <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/coingape.com\/top-10-web-3-games-to-explore-in-2023-here-list\/?utm_source=priceanalysisbar&amp;utm_medium=organicarticle\"><\/p>\n<div class=\"SponserdyWebimg_2\"><img width=\"834\" height=\"833\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"834\" height=\"833\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.coingape.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/23134356\/jpg_20221223_134223_0000.jpg\" class=\"attachment-post-thumbnail size-post-thumbnail wp-post-image\" alt=\"\"><\/div>\n<div class=\"Sponserdtent_2 mt-2\">Top 10 Web3 Games To Explore In 2023; Here List\n <\/div>\n<p>            <\/a><\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>                    &#8211;&gt;<\/p>\n<div class=\"authorBoxnew newauthordesign\">\n<div class=\"author_Ndata d-flex align-items-center mb-2\">\n<div class=\"author_Image\">\n                                           <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"image\/svg+xml,%3Csvg%20xmlns=\" data-lazy-srcset=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/452042cc86ff4d4cff7e64f282bd5358?s=400&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g 2x\" class=\"avatar avatar-200 photo\" height=\"200\" width=\"200\" data-lazy-src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/452042cc86ff4d4cff7e64f282bd5358?s=200&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g\" \/><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/secure.gravatar.com\/avatar\/452042cc86ff4d4cff7e64f282bd5358?s=200&amp;d=mm&amp;r=g\" class=\"avatar avatar-200 photo\" height=\"200\" width=\"200\" \/>                                  <\/div>\n<p>Coingape Staff  <\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p>CoinGape comprises an experienced team of native content writers and editors working round the clock to cover news globally and present news as a fact rather than an opinion.
