El Salvador reinforces its bet on Bitcoin and has already accumulated more than 6,173 BTC in national reserves

Against the backdrop of global financial conservatism, El Salvador continues to double down on its bet on Bitcoin. In the last week, the country added eight more BTC to its treasury, raising the total to an impressive 6,173 Bitcoins — an amount valued at over US$690,825,406,686.41 million.

Even under the strict conditions of an agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF), signed at the end of 2024, the government of Nayib Bukele remains firm in its strategy of adopting Bitcoin as a strategic state asset.

The Bitcoin Office of El Salvador, the entity responsible for monitoring and disclosing acquisitions, confirms: the policy of daily purchases — at least 1 BTC per day since the end of 2023 — remains active. And on favorable market days, the number increases.

President Bukele's message is clear and challenging. In a post made on X (formerly Twitter) on March 4, 2025, he declared:

"No, it is not stopping. If it didn't stop when the world ostracized us and most 'Bitcoiners' abandoned us, it won't stop now, and it won't stop in the future."

El Salvador's bold stance positions it as one of the only countries in the world to treat Bitcoin as a sovereign store of value — a move that could redefine public finances and attract the attention of visionary investors.

With the asset approaching new historical highs and the programmed scarcity of Bitcoin becoming increasingly evident, the question many investors are starting to ask is: is El Salvador anticipating the future of money?
