埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）宣布購買比特幣，使該國戰略儲備的總數達到6102硬幣

比特幣購買公告是在國際貨幣基金委員會批准與薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）的40個月計劃的幾天之後，以14億美元的價格暗示降級了中美洲國家的加密貨幣地位。

El Salvador announced on Wednesday the purchase of one bitcoin, which takes the total in the country’s strategic reserve to above 6,102 coins, the National Bitcoin Office posted on social media.

埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）週三宣布，購買了一家比特幣，該國的戰略儲備將總數超過6,102枚硬幣，該國國家比特幣辦公室發佈在社交媒體上。

The bitcoin purchase announcement comes days after the International Monetary Fund board approved a 40-month program with El Salvador for $1.4 billion that implied a downgrade of the cryptocurrency’s status in the Central American country.

比特幣購買公告是在國際貨幣基金委員會批准與薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）的40個月計劃的幾天之後，以14億美元的價格暗示降級了中美洲國家的加密貨幣地位。

Bitcoin cannot be used to pay taxes and its acceptance by the public is voluntary, which is not what was expected when it was given a legal tender status back in 2021.

比特幣不能用於繳稅，公眾的接受是自願的，這不是2021年獲得法定招標身份的預期。

Importantly, the government has committed to the IMF not to accumulate further bitcoins “at the level of the overall public sector” according to the IMF.

重要的是，政府已致力於國際貨幣基金組織不要“在整個公共部門的水平上”積累更多的比特幣。

“We consulted with the (Salvadoran) authorities, and they have assured us that the recent increase in Bitcoin holdings in the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Fund is consistent with agreed program conditionality,” a fund spokesperson said.

一位基金發言人說：“我們與（薩爾瓦多）當局進行了諮詢，他們向我們保證，戰略比特幣儲備基金中比特幣持有量的增加與約定的計劃條件一致。”

The IMF did not respond to further questions on how purchases by the national office do not add to the government’s exposure to the cryptocurrency.

國際貨幣基金組織沒有回答有關國家辦公室購買方式的進一步問題，並沒有增加政府對加密貨幣的接觸。

The Salvadoran Presidential House did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

薩爾瓦多總統大廈沒有立即回應置評請求。

Salvadoran government dollar bonds were mostly down in price on Wednesday, with the 2050 and 2041 maturities down 0.75 cents on the dollar.

薩爾瓦多政府的美元債券在周三的價格大部分降低，2050年和2041年的到期債券以美元降低0.75美分。

El Salvador has bought 12 bitcoins since the IMF announced last week the board approval of the agreement reached in December. It currently holds nearly $550 million in bitcoin, according to the government.

自IMF上周宣布以來，埃爾·薩爾瓦多（El Salvador）購買了12個比特幣，董事會批准了12月達成的協議。據政府稱，目前，它目前持有近5.5億美元的比特幣。
