@Bukele’s tweet about some of the Central Bank and financial authorities meeting in El Salvador may have misled us as to the purpose of the meeting per se: According to the information in the below GT links, the Central Bank of Paraguay has issued a statement to reflect that the focus of the meeting is not cryptocurrency, nor are they themselves interested in the matter. The meeting is really the 18th meeting of the Alliance for Financial Inclusion, delayed since 2020 (I figure due to the Corona virus outbreak).

If this is so, it seems that we’ve been oversold the meeting, and although some part are surely going to verse on crypto, as this post suggest, it may not be the core objective after all …

I believe President Bukele never claimed their summit among South American central bankers to be all, and just about Bitcoin. Bitcoin is merely part of it. Read the Twitter post, it said "talks about financial inclusion, banking the unbanked, AND Bitcoin". It's not a "Bitcoin conference", but Bitcoin is obviously one the topics to be discussed.
