Let’s go Nayib! Lots of gratitude for you bringing El Salvador in as the first country. Huge step for Bitcoin.
However, just after the completion of one year of adopting Bitcoin as a legal tender, El Salvador seems to be in dire straits.
The use of BTC in Salvador seems to be very low. Moreover, El Salvador’s debt-to-GDP ratio — a key metric used to compare what a country owes to what it generates — is expected to hit nearly 87% this year, which rises fears that the nation isn’t equipped to settle its loan obligations.
According to Bloomberg, El Salvador ranks at the top among the countries that are vulnerable to debt defaults.
