Very funny of the IMF to keep intruding into the affairs of a nation, and I wonder what it would benefit them in all these stories they keep telling the world about countries that seek financial aid from them. I will never believe the IMF for once till an official statement is released from the government of El Salvador, as they alone can respond to this statement as released by the IMF.
As for the IMF, they should not expect a country to keep saying every move they have made towards achieving financial freedom and boast of its economy, not to mention when it involves bitcoin. Nobody can tell if they had chosen to buy and keep it a secret as a result of the rate at which hackers operate these days. There are things better kept a secret than attracting public attention. It is best that the IMF learns this and minds its business.
I agree.
IMF will and can tell everyone whatever they want, but before the official announcements - it's all buzz.. El Sal has their own ways of doing things, and IMF should remember that.
It's really a buzz, as we all know, but the buzz is just something that can be ignored. However, the buzz can also be seen as a kind of wailing from their end because they are losing grip of their strongholds that are beginning to get liberated from them. So they made a statement to make it look as if they meant well for the betterment of the nation.
Most times, statements like this cause problems in nations like for instance, we all know that the El Salvador president said they would be purchasing one bitcoin per day, and the other party, not knowing or having updates on such activities, would want to make noise about it, thinking they would succeed in inciting the people against the government, but the people are wise and would not fall for such because they already know who they are and what they are up to.
