Odaily Planet Daily News According to the website of the Ministry of Finance of El Salvador, El Salvador increased its holdings of 1 Bitcoin again this morning. At present, its Bitcoin holdings are 6190.18, worth more than 674 million US dollars. In the past 7 days, it has increased its holdings of 8 Bitcoins, and in the past 30 days, it has increased its holdings of 30 Bitcoins, and it still maintains its plan to buy 1 Bitcoin every day.
In recent months, the International Monetary Fund (IMF) has put pressure on El Salvador to stop accumulating decentralized value storage assets. In December 2024, El Salvador reached an agreement with the IMF to obtain a loan of US$1.4 billion. As part of the agreement, El Salvador agreed to cancel the legal currency status of Bitcoin in the country and reduce the public sector's involvement in Bitcoin. On April 27, Rodrigo Valdes, director of the IMF's Western Hemisphere Department, said at the Spring Meetings Press Conference that El Salvador is still complying with the overall financial sector's commitment to no longer accumulate Bitcoin, which is a key performance indicator reached between the country and the IMF.
