This purchase brings the total BTC reserves of the country above 1,600 BTC. El Salvador first started purchasing Bitcoin back in September 2021. El Salvador is the first country to recognize Bitcoin as legal tender in the country, a policy that went into effect shortly after the country purchased its first supply.
