El Salvador Minister Announced: Are They Buying Bitcoin Despite the $1.4 Billion Agreement? - Coin Bulletin
El Salvador's Minister of Economy Maria Luisa Hayem announced that despite the IMF's request to reduce Bitcoin purchases under the $1.4 billion loan agreement, the government continues to purchase Bitcoin.
El Salvador made history in 2021 as the first country to accept Bitcoin as legal tender. Since that day, the country has faced various economic challenges and international pressures, particularly due to discussions with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). The IMF had set the condition of reducing Bitcoin investments in exchange for a $1.4 billion loan offered to El Salvador.
However, Minister Hayem stated clearly in his recent announcement that the government continues to purchase Bitcoin and that the Bitcoin project is still a priority for the government. This situation reveals that El Salvador has adopted digital assets as an economic strategy and has shown resistance to international pressures.
Despite the pressure from the IMF, the El Salvador government, which maintains its determination in Bitcoin policy, argues that this strategy will provide significant benefits to the country's economy in the long run. Officials state that the purchases of Bitcoin are benefiting the country across various sectors, from tourism to foreign investments, and signal that they will not back down.
El Salvador's Bitcoin policy has been criticized by international financial institutions, yet the steps taken by the government continue to be closely watched with great interest by the crypto community and other countries.
