- El Salvador will continue buying 1 Bitcoin daily until it becomes unaffordable with fiat currencies
- President Bukele’s statement highlights commitment to cryptocurrency adoption
- Move demonstrates belief in Bitcoin’s long-term value and potential as a global currency alternative.
El Salvador needs to offload bags of BTC, loud and clear
Quadrupling down at this point, right? I feel like this will not end well for him.
It’s tragic for the people of his country that they are being essentially forced into participating in a pyramid scheme
Yeah, this basically gave away the whole country to the USA, but now with Bitcoin, this is over!
TBH Bukele is more likely to steal the country’s finances than the USA. The USA doesn’t have the power to seize decentralized currency from across the equator, at least not without empowering the CIA but every time we do that they destabilize a region, create a theocracy, or trick us into another war so we’re getting pretty sick of their shit.
Venture capitalist Tim Draper believes that bitcoin will transform El Salvador into one of the wealthiest nations in the world
Or one of the poorest? To the moooon 🔻
What does ‘unaffordable with fiat currencies’ even mean? This guy knows you can divide BTC right?
The headline said 1BTC, so I take it to mean “until the price of 1BTC is too high to buy with real money”. They’re not saying they’ll buy $66000 worth of bitcoin per day indefinitely, just 1 whole bitcoin per day, regardless of how the price fluctuates, for as long as that’s viable.
El Salvador doesn’t have its own currency; they use USD and recently bitcoin. I don’t know enough to say whether this makes sense.
Right but you’re missing the point. It doesn’t matter if 1 BTC costs $1,000,000 when you can just buy 0.0001 BTC for $100. They would need to drive the cost of 1 BTC into the quadrillions of dollars before it would become even remotely unfeasible to purchase.
