But there's no trail of evidence there.
Of course, he is a thought leader.
Here is at least one instance of his claiming to have coined the term "skypesos", both in an article he excerpts in the body of the post and in the comments such as this where he acknowledges FT posts using "delta pesos" that predate his claimed first use of "skypesos":

@GU Wonder – interesting to see “Delta Pesos” I don’t doubt others used that term as well, I’ve never found an instance of Sky pesos or Skypesos that predates my own, but not sure it matters either way. Point is that it’s a currency whose value is ‘less than par’ i.e. worth less than 1:1 to other major currencies. That was always the point ��
