El Salvador's bitcoin treasury tops 7,800 BTC despite IMF loan limits
- —Treasury stands at 7,807 BTC, worth about $640–650 million at ~$82,000
- —More than 1,700 BTC added since the IMF program began in 2025
- —The $1.4 billion IMF deal bars bitcoin purchases with public funds
- —IMF says recent additions came from private donations, not state buying
Why it matters: The case shows how a sovereign can keep accumulating bitcoin while under an IMF program, and any dispute over the source of coins could complicate future reviews.
