Since El Salvador raised the orange flag in 2021 by adopting bitcoin as legal tender, the country has continued to make headlines. Between the messianic vision of President Nayib Bukele and international fascination, the narrative seemed clear: every day, El Salvador bought one BTC. However, the curtain has just fallen. An official report from the IMF, accompanied by a letter signed by the highest financial officials of the country, states unequivocally: no bitcoin purchases since February 2025.
