Since approving Bitcoin as legal tender in 2022, the country’s holdings have surged, boosted by President Nayib Bukele’s decision to purchase 1 BTC daily. With approximately 2,380 BTC accumulated at an average price of $44,300, the recent market peak saw the value rise to $164.7 million, representing a 53% profit. Bukele criticized media coverage of the government’s economic policy, highlighting the potential profit and emphasizing the country’s reliance on its citizenship program for BTC.

Mow emphasized the influx of price-insensitive buyers contributing to Bitcoin’s upward trajectory but cautioned readers that investments involve risks, advising independent research before making decisions.
