Someone commented: “Price is being updated at real market price every second. There’s no reason to keep the 3 minutes cooldown in@chivowallet, what are you waiting for to remove it? Or don’t you want people to start earning from your app? Is a governmental company after all.”

CoinDesk also noted that before the purchase, El Salvador held 1,120 BTC in its treasury, Reuters reported on Oct. 27, which would bring its total now to 1,141 BTC.

“It plans to buy another $500 million worth of the world’s biggest cryptocurrency by market value, funded by the issuance of $1 billion worth of tokenized bonds.”
