What you should know

Last year, El Salvador became the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender under Bukele’s presidency, in an attempt to combat high inflation in the country.

Since Bitcoin became a legal tender, the nation has acquired a total of 1,370 BTC to its reserve, buying the dip whenever there has been a major price correction in the flagship asset and reinvesting its unrealized gains into new infrastructure projects including a hospital and a school.

As per his tweets, the President is also expecting explosive growth for El Salvador’s two in-house BTC-based initiatives which includes Bitcoin City and Volcano bonds. As previously reported by Nairametrics, the president unveiled Bitcoin City as full-fledged metropolis with residential and commercial areas, restaurants, an airport as well as a port and rail service. A key feature of the upcoming city is that the city will have no income, property, capital gains or payroll taxes.

The President also predicts that Bitcoin will become a major electoral issue in United States elections this year and told his Twitter followers to be on the lookout for “a huge surprise” at Bitcoin 2022 conference.

Conclusion

El Salvador’s mainstream Bitcoin adoption met with a series of technical hurdles, the latest being reports of missing funds from the country’s in-house Bitcoin wallet, Chivo. According to reports, at least 50 Salvadorans reported losses totalling more than $96,000 in December, due to an alleged unknown glitch in the Chivo wallet.
