Next news:A letter signed by two of El Salvador's top finance officials states that the country hasn't bought any
Bitcoin since February, 2025, when its financing agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF) commenced, directly contradicting statements from the country's president, Nayib Bukele, and his
Bitcoin Office.
The letter, released as part of the IMF's first program review on July 15, says "the stock of Bitcoins held by the public sector remains
unchanged." An attached document notes that El Salvador has provided the addresses of all hot and cold wallets to the IMF for review and monitoring. The letter was signed by central bank president Douglas Pablo Rodríguez Fuentes and minister of finance Jerson Rogelio Posada Molina.
Yet Bukele's administration has repeatedly touted new purchases of one
$BTC daily since November of 2022, when Bukele announced the initiative. The country's
Bitcoin Office claims the country's
Bitcoin reserve holds about 6,242
$BTC, worth around $737 million. Blockchain intelligence firm Arkham backs up the daily 1
$BTC transfers, mostly from addresses tagged as Binance or Bitfinex hot wallets.
Bukele had previously stated that despite the IMF agreement, which secured a loan of $1.4 billion for El Salvador but required the country to reduce its
Bitcoin activity, he would not stop buying BTC. "If [the
$BTC purchases] didn’t stop when the world ostracized us and most 'bitcoiners' abandoned us, it won't stop now, and it won't stop in the future," Bukele previously saidon X.
However, the new report indicates that these may not be purchases, but rather the Salvadoran government consolidating
Bitcoin it already owns. "Increases in
Bitcoin holdings in the Strategic
Bitcoin Reserve Fund reflect the consolidation of
Bitcoin across various government-owned wallets," the IMF report states in a footnote.
The head of the
Bitcoin Office, Stacy Herbert, has previously stated that El Salvador continues to buy
Bitcoin in defiance of the IMF deal. "Some 'bitcoiners' trust the words of the IMF over the stacking actions of El Salvador recorded for eternity onto the
Bitcoin blockchain," Herbert wrote on X in March. The Block was unable to immediately reach the
Bitcoin Office for comment.
The IMF had previously said that the increase in
Bitcoin in the country's reserve did not violate the terms of the financing deal. "We consulted with the 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," the IMF told a Forbes contributor in March. [The Block]
Next news:On July 20, the Shanghai Pudong New Area People's Court announced on July 16 a case of illegal exchange of virtual currency that was sentenced in March this year. The case shows that Yang, Xu and others operated domestic shell company accounts to provide stable currency (the transaction medium is Tether) for overseas accounts of unspecified customers, thereby realizing cross-border transfer of funds to obtain income. The amount of illegal foreign exchange transactions involved in three years reached 6,500,000,000.0 yuan. Among them, Yang was responsible for soliciting customers and allocating foreign exchange funds abroad, and Xu managed the public accounts of 17 shell companies in China, processing an average daily cash flow of more than 10,000,000.0 yuan, with clear division of labor and close cooperation. The disclosed case content shows that at the end of 2023, Ms. Chen, a Shanghai citizen, needed to remit money to her daughter overseas. Due to the restriction of my country's foreign exchange quota of 50,000 US dollars per person per year, she contacted an overseas "currency exchange company" (the domestic shell company A controlled by the aforementioned Yang Mou and others). According to the instructions, Ms. Chen remitted RMB to the account of Company A, and then her daughter's overseas account received the equivalent amount of foreign exchange, and the "currency exchange company" charged a certain percentage of the handling fee as a reward. For a long time, the criminal gang has provided illegal exchange services for domestic and foreign customers who have foreign currency and RMB exchange needs in the name of "collection and payment" overseas through cross-border "counter-knocking".

Next news:On July 20, Yu Xian, the founder of SlowMist, issued a security alert, stating that there have been a large number of phishing email attacks targeting X platform users recently. These emails, with the subject "New login to X From XXX," can bypass the Gmail spam filtering system. Attackers impersonate abnormal account login notifications to trick users into clicking "Change your password" or "Review the apps" links, which actually redirect users to the official X third-party application authorization page. Once a user authorizes the attacker, they will gain the permission to post and forward tweets, and can control the user's account to publish content without their knowledge. Users must be vigilant, carefully handle any email notifications claiming abnormal login to their X account, and avoid clicking on links in emails and authorizing applications at will. [BlockBeats]

On July 20, according to The Wall Street Journal, sources said that the government began reviewing SpaceX's contracts with the federal government just days after Trump raised the possibility of cutting off business ties with Musk's companies in early June. However, officials believe that most of the contracts cannot be canceled because they are critical to the Department of Defense and NASA.
After Musk escalated his personal attacks on Trump on June 5, Trump declared that the simplest way to save federal funds was to "terminate" Musk's corporate contracts. Days later, a senior official at the U.S. General Services Administration asked the Department of Defense, NASA, and other federal agencies to complete a spreadsheet listing all current contracts and other transaction agreements with SpaceX. After reviewing the data, White House and agency officials, including the Pentagon, determined that most of the contracts were critical to the Department of Defense and NASA. People familiar with the matter said that some of SpaceX's contracts may continue to be reviewed.
