Nouriel Roubini says El Salvador president should be impeached over Bitcoin

According to Nobel Prize laureate Nouriel Roubini, the experimental Bitcoin gambit of El Salvador President Nayib Bukele is “bankrupting” the country, which is why Bukele deserves to be impeached. Earlier this month, El Salvador's sovereign credit rating was downgraded by financial services company Moody's due to concerns that the country’s audacious Bitcoin bet will prevent it from securing a $1.3 billion loan from the International Monetary Fund.

El Salvador has $800 million worth of dollar-denominated bonds that are due in January 2023. In 2021, they showed the worst performance in the entire world.

The purchase could have been aimed at both buying the market dip and supporting the recovery rally on the market. However, this was unable to "save" SHIB: while growing by almost 16% on the weekend, Shiba Inu then swiftly retraced below $0.00002.
