El Salvador’s Christmas Bitcoin Surge – IMF Observes as Crypto Move Gains Momentum
El Salvador is ramping up its Bitcoin purchases, adding one coin a day to its Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, despite pressure from the IMF to slow down.
Since December 20, the country has bought 12 BTC, then one per day, signaling a strong commitment to digital assets. While Bhutan also holds BTC strategically, El Salvador’s growing reserve marks a bold departure from traditional financial systems.
As the country continues its buying spree, it sets a global precedent for using Bitcoin as both currency and leverage. Analysts will be watching closely as 2025 approaches to see whether this strategy proves visionary or risky.
