Seg?n los datos de CoinDesk basados en los anuncios de Bukele, El Salvador lleva un 55,03% de su apuesta por el bitcoin. Desde septiembre hasta la fecha, el pa?s ha adquirido 2301 monedas por un total de $103,9 millones, pero su cartera tiene actualmente un valor de $46,6 millones.

En mayo, el ministro de Hacienda de El Salvador, Alejandro Zelaya, dijo que la cantidad de bitcoin que ten?a el pa?s en ese momento representaba menos del 0,5% de su presupuesto anual, y a?adi? que las p?rdidas por esa criptomoneda supon?an un riesgo “extremadamente m?nimo” para la posici?n fiscal del pa?s.
