Some countries use decimals and commas for separating numbers the opposite way of what you might be used to. If they are really buying 1 BTC per day then it would obviously be 6 thousand 274 bitcoins.
Thanks for the information finneys I was also thinking this must be a regional difference thing but I was not so sure because I thought, "Why would someone be using a decimal instead of the comma, when a decimal can make things very hard to understand?"

Anyway not a big thing, and El Salvador is doing good and that's a good calculation that they must be buying BTC every day but don't know how they lie to the IMF and how the IMF even ensures that they are not buying anymore I guess that's normal because many other countries that have taken loans from IMF also don't listen much to such restrictions that could affect their progress and development.
Yea, I know that some countries use decimals instead of comma to separate their numbers. I am just imagining how complicated it will be when they want to express numbers based on decimals itself. Well, that is their headache and I believe there is an International standard for such numbering.

Talking about IMF and El Salvador, despite that we have known how IMF operates, are they actually supposed to know when and how a country buys her bitcoin? Do IMF perform monthly audit on El Salvador to be able to know that they stopped buying bitcoin?
