For a company or established independent developer it's not a big deal. But for many people it is a lot of money, it's currently ~8 minimum wages at black market dollar-peso price (which is the only one available for someone in that situation).

Someone working as a semi sr. developer is earning $ 1K so in two months you can afford it. And this is a long term investment.
In the worst case many people can join together to share the same company.

$1k at the official dollar (non black market) value probably, which is not available. That price is 50% of the black market's one, so it'd be $500.
I don't mean that this money will prevent anyone from getting their apps paid, but it'd really discourage indie developers to start new apps, as it's now more expensive and complicated.
