IMF Points Out Suspension of Bitcoin Purchases by El Salvador, Government Insists on Continuation

On the 15th, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) released an evaluation report concerning its loans to El Salvador. According to this report, the country has not purchased Bitcoin (BTC) since at least February 2025. However, President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador declared in March that he would not stop purchasing Bitcoin. Additionally, the country's Bitcoin Office has announced on its website's graph that it continues to accumulate 1 BTC per day, creating a discrepancy with the IMF's report. The IMF has noted that 'the stock of Bitcoin held by the public sector has not changed.'
