El Salvador seems to be small potatoes compared with coins that other countries get through various seizure practices.

There is a list of government holdings in this article:  https://river.com/learn/who-owns-the-most-bitcoin/

Just yesterday there was an announcement of between $2 billion to $3 billion coins through UK authorities (61k BTC) and also from German Authorities (50k BTC)

El Salvador will remain committed to Bitcoin after the election

El Salvador will likely keep its bitcoin ambitions if President Naib Bukel is re-elected on February 4. As El Salvador prepares for general elections, Vice President Felix Ulloa has expressed confidence that the country will maintain its commitment to Bitcoin if his party is re-elected.

With what we can see on ground as at now, there's nothing stopping the re-election of president nayib bukele ass El-salvador president for the second tenure not even the opponents, what he has done to El-salvador right from the time bitcoin was adopted as a legal tender down to how the economy was boost, loan reconciliation payments and debts cancellations, reduced poverty and crime rate, all these have made a clear ground for the situation of bitcoin economic activities for the suitability of the people and foreigners to enjoy bitcoin adoption under a conducive environment, within this, you can see that l indications were pointing at his re-election into office.

I think that currently there are still many El Salvador citizens who like Nayib Bukele and his commitment to maintaining Bitcoin as a future investment asset that can be used in the lives of its own people. Because everyone will probably assess and see how the state of El Salvador developed while being led by President Nayib Bukele. So there is a possibility for Nayib Bukele to win again in this election if the trust of his own citizens is still very high in him in terms of returning to lead the country of El Salvador.

Félix Ulloa addressed a whole lot of issues about El Salvador including the fight against gangs and crime. He acknowledged that the government made some mistakes in arresting some innocent citizens. But these mistakes are gradually been corrected with over 7000 people released from detention and others still going through legal processes to gain freedom.

Regarding the continuation of Bitcoin policy in El Salvador, he stated that it is a done deal. The country is not abandoning Bitcoin as a legal tender regardless of the pressure from the IMF about the $1.3 billion loan negotiations. He gave an example of the US institutionalizing Bitcoin through the approval of Spot Bitcoin ETF, which is an indication Bitcoin is now a force that cannot be overlooked.

A good system must be maintained and improved, not slowly eliminated.
El Salvador became the first country to legalize Bitcoin as legal tender and during this period, investment in Bitcoin experienced a large increase according to sources accessible in various media.
The one who started it was Nayib Bukele and other countries outside El Salvador are already trying to imitate this concept because it has good potential.

I think the pros and cons of something are always interrelated parts and can never be separated in democracy. Everyone is competing for good, not for bringing down. Good concepts that have proven successful in implementation must be maintained.

I think the name Nayib Bukele is not only popular with the people of El Salvador but this name is known and popular with people all over the world who know about Bitcoin. El Salvador will probably have presidential elections on February 4. We hope that Nayib Bukele will definitely win this election as his popularity is highest And the people of El Salvador like Naib Buckle's promise to maintain Bitcoin as an investment asset for the future.

You can understand how popular Nayib Bukele is among different Latin American countries and different presidents.

I think the statement of Felix Ulloa who served as Vice President El Salvador to commitment to Bitcoin will be seen as a political statement by the opponent as an effort to seize the sympathy of the parties who are pro to Bitcoin in El Salvador.
If I am and live in El Salvador, I will be together in the ranks of people who support Nayyib Bukele's policy because from my perspective, El Salvador was successful in the investment field.

In addition, the current view of the El Salvador government can be accepted by common sense if they remain firm because the potential investment of Bitcoin will be more intense after ETF is approved.
I see the IMF too much about El Salvador's government policy towards Bitcoin.
However, the statement of Felix Ulloa is in accordance with the fact that maintaining Bitcoin is something that can bring positive values in the eyes of the world.

Continue ... Nayib Bukele.

Yes, the elections are going to be this Sunday. Yes, he is going to win...

Now, no, if you to believe the story that bitcoin influences his reelection. Bukele enjoys popularity for his management as president in different social-economic-security areas, etc. and those referring to bitcoin are in the background, that is a palpable reality, the 4-year stretch for his next mandate is really uphill to move forward, the bonds, the bitcoin city, mining, and especially investors.

Is there any record showing how well Bitcoin inflow have been in EL Salvador since they legalized it? One would have expected that such move by the government will encourage more investment in Bitcoin on the side of the citizen and even the government themselves. I would have love to know if such increase in Bitcoin holding is noticed in El Salvador.

Another thing, is there a correlation between the Bitcoin ETF approvals and EL Salvador legalization of Bitcoin? I'm just curious to learn how both could play complementary roles. Sorry if my question sound dump, but I'm just looking at the bigger picture.

It will be very difficult to get comprehensive data about the inflow of Bitcoin into El Salvador because some transactions will be anonymous and might not be easily tracked. The only data that can be accessed is through centralized platforms which will not be reliable. The move by Bukele has attracted some crypto firms into the country which has also created employment opportunities. There has also been an increase in tourism and Bitcoin remittance. Of course, there has been an increase in El Salvador's Bitcoin hodling because they are still buying more Bitcoin and have also started making a profit from their past purchase.

Another thing, is there a correlation between the Bitcoin ETF approvals and EL Salvador legalization of Bitcoin? I'm just curious to learn how both could play complementary roles. Sorry if my question sound dump, but I'm just looking at the bigger picture.

The only similarity between these two events is that they promote Bitcoin. They lead to Bitcoin awareness and adoption but they are different. El Salvador is a country that made Bitcoin a legal tender which means that it is now a currency that is backed by the law that must be accepted for financial transactions. However, the ETF is the US SEC approval for people to invest indirectly in Bitcoin. It is an approval that a firm can manage people's Bitcoin.

It is not an easy job for me to be able to answer your question regarding records showing the inflow of Bitcoin since the El Salvador government legalized it as a means of payment because if I say I can show you that data, be assured that the record comes from search results on the internet. Why? because I am not a resident who lives there.
If you still want it, I will try to find sources that are not necessarily completely trustworthy. How?

Bitcoin in El Salvador - Wikipedia
This is one of the sources of results from my searches on the internet.
You can also find other sources that show Bitcoin inflow records since El Salvador legalized Bitcoin as legal tender, such as on x.com.

Yes.. remittances might need to be self-reported.. and that might not be reliable.. but if there is a shrinkage in the remittances services, then maybe some of those people are using bitcoin to remit.

Sure each of them likely put upwards price pressures on bitcoin for different reasons... various forms of legalization and bitcoin recognition could also lead to other governments going down similar paths... and so surely we could talk about government by government acceptance of bitcoin, and sometimes there are also countervailing measures happening simultaneously, including the recent (likely unlawful and overreaching and oppressive) mandate in the USA that miners have to fill out an invasive survey about various details of their operations...so even within various administrations there can be a lot of contradictions, even though it seems that a clear creation of a legal tender law should be considered somewhat unambiguous in terms of welcoming bitcoin at the transactional and also the direct holdings level.. yet even ETF approval is not directly acknowledging anything about direct holding of bitcoin, even though bitcoin's value does come from abilities to directly hold it and transact with it without getting permission of governments and/or any third parties...so the level of tension in regards to rights involving directly holding bitcoin are not unambiguous and likely contributing to many folks not recognizing and appreciating a lot of bitcoin's power comes through the various direct holding mechanisms... even if sometimes there also might be interactions with custodians and other kinds of third party players who may or may not put obstacles in the ways to directly hold and/or transact with dee cornz..

This is what I am afraid, because there is a new presidential election I am worried that the Bitcoin program will not be re-run. But this statement at least makes me a little happy. The reason is, I'm interested to see how other countries respond that see El Salvador succeeding with Bitcoin. Although indeed we never know what will happen with Bitcoin later. but historically El Salvador should be able to improve the economy if BTC again has the best price. I hope that later El Salvador will succeed so that it becomes a reference for other countries.
