According to Bukele\u2019s recent update on the social media platform X, El Salvador\u2019s Bitcoin portfolio is now valued at over $147 million. This represents a potential profit of nearly $41.6 million should the country decide to sell its holdings, reflecting a substantial return on investment since it began purchasing Bitcoin in September 2021.<\/p>\n<p>Bukele\u2019s administration has faced criticism for its decision to invest heavily in Bitcoin, with skeptics pointing to the cryptocurrency\u2019s volatility and the risk it posed to the country\u2019s financial stability. However, Bukele has countered these concerns with the current profitability of the investment, highlighting the positive outcome despite the initial skepticism. <em>\u201cWhen Bitcoin\u2019s market price was low, they wrote literally thousands of articles about our supposed losses,\u201d<\/em> he stated. <em>\u201cNow that #Bitcoin\u2019s market price is way up, if we were to sell, we would make a profit of over 40%.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n<p>The country\u2019s Bitcoin was acquired at an average price of $44,292, totaling 2,381 in <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/cryptocurrencies\/section\/what-is-a-bitcoin\/\">BTC<\/a>.

Despite the current profitability, Bukele has indicated that El Salvador has no plans to sell its Bitcoin holdings.<\/p>\n<p>This stance comes after Bukele\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/nayib-bukele-secures-second-term-with-pro-bitcoin-agenda\/\">landslide re-election victory<\/a> in early February, where he secured more than 85% of the vote, underscoring strong public support for his leadership and perhaps his pioneering Bitcoin strategy.<\/p>\n<div class=\"main-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-items box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"box-100 space-org-3-item relative border-tb mt-1 \">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-ins box-100 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms box-25 relative\">\n<div class=\"space-org-3-item-terms-ins box-100 text-center relative\"> <strong><strong>250% Extra + $125 Free Chip!<\/strong><\/strong> <\/p>\n<p>New players only. 250% on 1st Deposit + $125 Free Chip<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<p>At time of writing, Bitcoin is moving hands at $61,745 according to CoinMarketCap data.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/igaming.org\/crypto\/bitcoin-gains-validate-el-salvadors-investment-choice\/\">Source link <\/a><br \/>\n<br \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>(Originally posted on : Crypto News &#8211; iGaming.org ) El Salvador has seen a significant increase in the value of its Bitcoin investments, with President Nayib Bukele announcing that the country\u2019s holdings have surged over 40% in value.
