Not sure if this should be under bitcoin topic or here lol. But there have been platforms,
namely kalshi's prediction market and polymarket, have listed similar bets about El Salvador's bitcoin holdings. Both platforms have listed that El Salvador will have a total of $1 Billion worth of bitcoin by the end of 2025. The odds are pretty interesting. Now Bukele has found out about this and seems to be hinting on social media. But do you genuinely believe El Salvador can magically get to a billion worth of bitcoin? They currently have over $700 Million. They would only need $300 million more. To me it seems a lot. To a country like El Salvador, that isn't easy money either. Would you bet on this?
That's interesting.
They're the first one to adopt bitcoin as a legal tender and so, there could be some real money sitting there if Bukele tries to hit that or not.
He can silently bet under the bet of no, they can't make it. And does nothing until the end of this year. Or opt to make it and then tries to attract investors or lenders to come to him and let him do that.
