El Salvador’s Bitcoin Buying Plans Hit a Wall
The IMF says El Salvador has not used public funds to buy Bitcoin bitcoin:native since June 2025.
The government provided documentation showing subsequent accumulation came entirely from private donations.
The IMF does not expect further Bitcoin accumulation beyond those documented donations.
Per reports, the disclosure came during an agreement covering the second and third EFF reviews.
El Salvador could receive around $140 million in additional IMF funding after approval.
