Nayib Bukele, the president of El Salvador, revealed that the Latin American country has purchased 150 more Bitcoin while prices were declining on Monday morning.
According to data from CoinGecko, the leading cryptocurrency plummeted by 6.9% over the last 24 hours, changing hands around $45,000 by press time.
Other top cryptocurrencies, including Cardano (ADA), XRP, Solana (SOL), and Polkadot (DOT), all shed double-digits over the day, while Ethereum, the second-largest cryptocurrency by market cap, is down 9.2%, currently trading at $3,137.
“They can never beat you if you buy the dips,” Bukele tweeted, adding that this can well be considered “presidential advice.”
With the latest purchase, El Salvador now holds 700 Bitcoin worth about $31 million.

Bukele’s government purchased its first 400 Bitcoin on September 6, the day before El Salvador became the first country in the world to formally recognize cryptocurrency as legal tender.
Bitcoin was trading just below $53,000 at the time, but plummeted by more than 10% the next day following the launch of El Salvador’s official Chivo Wallet, with technical issues marring the start of the country’s crypto experiment.
El Salvador was quick to grab the opportunity, though, with a purchase of 150 more Bitcoin that same day, increasing the country’s crypto reserves to a total of 550 BTC.
It appears the discount is ending 🥲
Thanks for the dip @IMFNews. We saved a million in printed paper.

As El Salvador’s Bitcoin buying spree continues, the country’s government is reportedly facing an investigation into its Bitcoin purchases and installation of crypto ATMs.
According to a Reuters report last week, El Salvador’s Court of Accounts—the body that oversees the country’s public spending—received a complaint from Cristosal, a human rights and transparency group, in which it expressed concerns over the government’s financing of Bitcoin purchases.
El Salvador’s Court of Accounts will investigate a complaint about the government’s purchase of Bitcoin, as well as the government’s process for building crypto ATMs, per Reuters. According to Reuters, the Court of Accounts—which oversees the country’s public spending—said it received a complaint on September 10 from a human rights and transparency group in El Salvador called Cristosal. “Having admitted the complaint, it will be proceeded to carry out the legal analysis report and, in a timely...
Citizens have also been critical of the government’s crypto experiment.
Last week, on the country’s independence day, more protests escalated in El Salvador, with people taking to the streets with “We don’t want Bitcoin” and “No to dictatorship” banners and even burning down a Bitcoin ATM in San Salvador, the country’s capital.
U.S. law enforcement officials using brute force to seize cash from Bitcoin ATMs are overstepping their authority and may be violating the law, Bitcoin Depot CLO Chris Ryan said. Ryan told Decrypt that funds police may seize rightfully belong to the Atlanta, Georgia-based provider of Bitcoin ATMs, and that they are liable for damages to the machines, even as they try to return large sums to consumers who say they’ve been scammed. “You’ve got these rogue law enforcement officers thinking that th...
When Robinhood hosts a crypto-focused keynote event in France on Monday, investors may have an opportunity to buy the dip, investment bank Compass Point signaled on Friday. Although some investors may “sell the news,” the trading platform has several potential catalysts on the horizon, including inclusion in the S&P 500 and a crypto business that continues to flourish, Compass Point analyst Ed Engel wrote in a note. Robinhood shares turned lower on Friday, recently falling 1.3% to $83.46, accord...
Ask any pro-crypto lawmaker or industry leader, and they’ll tell you stablecoins are about to take over the world. Earlier this month, the Senate passed a landmark bill to formally legalize stablecoin issuance in the United States—legislation that parties involved have promised will, once signed into law, unleash the promise of instantaneous blockchain payments on all corners of the U.S. economy. Crypto leaders have forecasted that once the federal government gives the green light, hundreds of...
