Government Discards IMF's Bitcoin Restrictions
In a bold move that has left many scratching their heads, El Salvador's economy minister, Maria Luisa Hayem, reportedly stated that the country will continue to accumulate Bitcoin as a reserve asset – disregarding a loan agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) that had called for scaling back these purchases[1]. The country's commitment to Bitcoin looks set to continue, with government and private sector entities alike actively participating in its adoption.
According to Hayem, El Salvador's decision to accumulate Bitcoin is part of a broader asset acquisition strategy[1]. She added that Bitcoin remains an essential project for the country, with asset accumulation ongoing from both the government and private sectors[1].
The IMF addressed questions about El Salvador's continued Bitcoin buying earlier this week[4]. Rodrigo Valdes, the director of the IMF's Western Hemisphere Department, stated that, despite recent purchases, the country is still complying with performance criteria set by the IMF[4]. Valdes went on to emphasize that El Salvador's program is focused on structural reforms, governance, transparency, and fiscal matters – stressing that progress is being made in each of these areas[4].
