LIVE📢 $400 million Bitcoin transfer from El Salvador: Bukele announced
📢 In El Salvador, which has made Bitcoin the official currency in 2021, Nayib Bukele, who was re-elected president last month, announced that they have moved Bitcoin worth about $ 400 million to a new cold wallet.
El Salvador, which received reactions from the Western world when it made #Bitcoin an official currency, but did not return from the policy it implemented, began to receive the reward of this with price increases. While the Bitcoins in El Salvador's hands are getting more valuable every day, a new statement has also come from president Nayib Bukele.
Bukele, who was re-elected president last month, announced that they had moved 5689 BTC to a new cold wallet. In a statement via X, Bukele said:
“We have decided to move a large part of our bitcoins to a new cold wallet. This cold wallet will be stored in a physical safe within the borders of the country. You might also think that this is our first official piggy bank. The figure may not be a lot, but it's honestly earned money...”
The number of #BTC has been at least 2 times
According to the statements made by Nayib Bukele, the platforms trying to find the number of Bitcoins in the country's possession finally showed that El Salvador has about 2800 BTC. In Bukele's transfer, it turned out that the figure was at least 2 times. Bukele's statement “The majority of our Bitcoins ...” indicates that the country has more BTC in its hands than transferred.
Bukele also stated in November of 2022 that the state would buy 1 Bitcoin every day and implement an average reduction policy.
