The tricks failed to materialize. Poverty remained rampant and El Salvador ended up being forced to suspend its Bitcoin program just to take a puny IMF loan. In the end, no crypto entity stepped in to help them when they needed 1.4 billion in USD. We know from Greece's example that IMF measures lead a state economy to disaster. But imagine how desperate a country had to be to accept an IMF intervention over a loan totalling only around 4% of its GDP.
I don't know for sure, but from the data and a lot of news about El Slavador, they were able to pay off the country's debt. So in this matter I think El Salvador is in a good process of development. Remember, they started acquiring new Bitcoins in 2021. Then if calculated with their Bitcoin stock, El Salvador is considered to be the richest country. Even from the official poverty report, it decreased by 14 percentage points. I can't be sure, but many media outlets have raised the above problem.
Perhaps an IMF loan is another option from Bukele. That doesn't mean it's a failure for Bitcoin. There are indeed some agreements, regarding some programs to stop and the program is indeed ineffective. But Bukele also continues to increase the amount of Bitcoin. Just look at how Bukele continues to buy and not sell it. I think Bukele has good planning, he has been in office for quite a long time because economic growth cannot be changed in a short time.
