El Salvador’s Bitcoin Stack Just Exploded — And Bukele Is Celebrating
El Salvador has just logged one of its biggest Bitcoin accumulation weeks ever.
President Nayib Bukele announced that the country’s national treasury now holds 7,474.37 BTC, marking a massive 1,098.19 BTC increase in just the past seven days. At current market prices, the country’s total Bitcoin stash is valued at roughly $688 million, with the latest weekly addition alone worth over $101 million.
Bukele shared the update on social media with a celebratory “Hooah!” — signaling both confidence and excitement as El Salvador continues to double down on its historic crypto experiment.
A Bold Strategy That’s Getting Even Bolder
The updated Bitcoin balance graph shows a sharp, sudden spike — one of the largest weekly increases since El Salvador began publicly tracking its treasury.
This aggressive accumulation is the latest milestone in a journey that began in 2021 when El Salvador became the first country in the world to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender.
Three years later, the nation isn’t slowing down — it’s speeding up.
A Global Crypto Debate Heats Up
El Salvador’s ongoing accumulation arrives at a time when countries, economists, and financial institutions continue to debate:
- the stability of adopting Bitcoin at the national level
- long-term economic risks versus innovation benefits
- the future of crypto-backed sovereign strategies
While many nations remain cautious, El Salvador is clearly positioning itself as the world’s leading Bitcoin nation, committed to building a digital asset–driven economic future.
