As buying Bitcoin have become a wayy the El Salvador government celebrate different days, the latest was the buying of 21 Bitcoin at the price of $49,000 which dollars equivalent is $1,036,000 just to celebrate the last 21st day of the year 21.
This have brought the country total Bitcoin holding to 21,041 Bitcoins this moves have set El Salvador an hedge over other counterparts.
I'm surprised that they've already had 21,041 bitcoins acquired based on what you've said but thanks to stompix for having the actual number of how many bitcoins they've got already.
Well, what I just like about him is that he's part of the bitcoin community and likes having bitcoin for his country. Other than that, there's the personal matter of why people don't like him
The actual number is 1241
BTC, they had
1220 prior to this.
21041 is the size in km2 of Salvador, you've made a total mess of the news.
The above by says stompix, they only have 1241
BTC.
Still, this is a good initiative for a country to have funds like BTC for it couldn't be frozen because of thier political situation where IMF is closely watching them. This could just be an assurance for the country not to go hungry unlike what happened to Afghanistan where the government's money was frozen and all people are now suffering due to it.
This is a president of a country surely he does know something is happening in the world like USSR is preparing for war.
