🥺 Bitcoin or Bitcoin? That is the question //
El Salvador’s President Nayib Bukele remains certain about his nation's his bet on cryptocurrencies, despite the recent selloff in the markets.
This Thursday the government bought another 80 BTC at the cost of $19,000 each, according to a tweet from Bukele. That brings the total amount the nation spent buying Bitcoin since it was approved as legal tender last year to $106.3 million, according to calculations by Bloomberg based on Bukele’s tweets.
These holdings are now worth about $45.8 million, implying a 57% loss.
El Salvador’s gamble on Bitcoin is exacerbating a debt crisis. The country has been struggling to deal with wide fiscal deficits as an $800 million bond comes due in January.
