The meeting between Donald Trump and Nayib Bukele on April 14, 2025 at the White House created a wave of speculation in the crypto market, especially Bitcoin. With the US and El Salvador flags in the background, the formal atmosphere of the meeting indicated a strategic discussion. Bukele, who made Bitcoin the legal tender in El Salvador since 2021, has accumulated more than 6,000 BTC worth around $514 million. Meanwhile, Trump, who was initially skeptical of crypto, is now pushing the US as the "crypto capital of the world" with a strategic Bitcoin reserve plan. The meeting triggered a 3.5% increase in the price of Bitcoin to $67,450, reflecting market optimism about the potential for pro-crypto policies, even though the official agenda focuses more on security and immigration.
