Ya well this aged poorly

nayibbukele Yeah then it dropped back to 35k a day later. Bitcoin is not stable and you can lose a lot more than you gain if you’re in the 70% of Salvadoreans who don’t have a bank account

nayibbukele jokowi Indonesia should follow El Salvador by utilising stranded renewable energy for bitcoin mining which can help solve current account deficit issues, adopt btc for wider financial inclusion, btc can protect citizens from inflation and attract investments in blockchain

nayibbukele In the meantime, $Nano community is opening hundreds of free nano distribution spots in El Salvador, with WeNanoApp, so the citizens can try it’s technology and decide for their own if they want to use it or not, before they commit large sums of their own money. 💙

nayibbukele This is the easiest part, first of all you should start to build your access to internet infrastructure, in El Salvador just 30% of population has access to internet, I don’t want to think 🤔 how many of this people know how to use a crypto wallet……

nayibbukele In El Salvador, it is now possible to engage in environmentally friendly mining. Cool!!!

It didn't rally bc of El Salvador. BTCs movements are not solely driven by Bid vs Ask. This jump was expected, just as the drop starting later today is expected.

nayibbukele Bitcoin use may continue to spread in Central and South America - which would be more than enough to counter loco Elon’s flip flop tweets

Rich people control all this marketing. Poor ppl and middle class never get rich and pay more taxes! Don’t dream cos ur dream never come true in reality !

nayibbukele It's so funny how the media ties things together to make a story!

Drugs or Mafia gang, maybe they are behind on this decision but will finish them, they will use them to steal online or make money laundering on Drugs scandal worldwide and hide their funds to El Salvador

If every country do the same it will reach beyond $100000

nayibbukele You are very smart and Mr. Dung. Your country will attract hundreds of trillions of dollars from crypto. Your country will quickly become a rich power. Congratulations! He like DogeCoin $100k

While you hodl your favorite crypto. Don't forget to buy some gold!!! The new coroglobal app is used to exchange, send, and save gold & dollars easily, instantly, securely and (DLT) to run its payment app.

Some people don’t understand that Salvadoriens were already using BTC. Govt just legalised tender and supports now. They’ve been using Lightning network for quick (no fees) payments/conversions. And 70% don’t have bank but all have phones. Don’t be ignorant!

bitcoin legal tender - SWITZERLAND next z

You welcome mofos!!

President Nayib bukele & his clans bought Bitcoin at 32k, bailed his country to hype it to 37k! What a dodgy scam! Bitcoin is nothing more than a casino token for greed, money laundering & crime. He’s made Bitcoin legal to launder billions to abroad

nayibbukele Ouuuu!!!! 🤣

工业革命以来的再一次重大改革。比特币(网络黄金),莱特币(网络白银),以太坊(革命性区块链操作系统、协议)。狗狗币将是未来的世界货币。

nayibbukele Because of your BTC adoption, I'm up 20% from the Bitcoin that I bought at the lowest dip and recovered 40% of my floating losses. El Salvador indeed!

El Salvador makes Bitcoin legal tenderSAN SALVADOR, El Salvador (AP) — El Salvador’s Legislative Assembly has approved legislation making the cryptocurrency Bitcoin legal tender in the country, the first country to do so, just days after President Nayib Bukele made the proposal at a Bitcoin conference. Good Many African central and south American Nations shall follow. This is what I feared. Cannot have one currency throughout the world, makes it too easy for crazy people to think they can take over everything. The dollar won’t last another decade as the worlds “reserve currency”.
