A digital bank has collapsed, and now the presidency of a country may be at stake. Tonight at 9 PM, Paraguayan President Peña will face an impeachment vote in the House of Representatives, triggered by the bank's collapse. Less than three days ago, the central bank took over the digital bank Ueno Bank, leaving approximately 2.9 million depositors unable to withdraw their funds. The central bank initially offered each depositor about $1,700. As the situation escalated, Peña canceled a foreign trip and announced a new law allowing depositors to withdraw their money up to about $20,000, expected to arrive on Friday. While this sounds like a tenfold increase, it's only an advance payment, not a full settlement. Before the money arrived, clashes had already broken out in the streets for two nights. On Wednesday night, local police used water cannons outside the Capitol to disperse the crowds. How did the bank collapse? According to the central bank report, Ueno lent money to related companies, which was immediately used to repay the group's own debts, then transferred back upon maturity, making it appear on the books that the other party had repaid on time. Now, the CEO and 27 others have been indicted, the case is still pending, and the central bank governor has resigned. Tonight, Penia is waiting for the votes, and 2.9 million people are waiting to see if the money from Friday will actually arrive.
