President who lost $56 million in Bitcoin trading seeks reelection

Nayib Bukele, El Salvador president known for his unfortunate history of Bitcoin trading, is seeking reelection. His main campaign messages are implementing Bitcoin as a national currency and fighting crime. The president’s portfolio is currently at a massive loss; his average entry into BTC was at $51,000, while at the moment of writing the king crypto is trading at $19,323. In addition to unsuccessful Bitcoin trading, Bukele is also accountable for a failed experiment on Bitcoin adoption in the country. According to survey data, the majority of Salvadorians did not want to use a relatively complicated technology. However, under Bukele’s reign, El Salvador "lost" its place at the top of the list of the most homicides per capita, which makes his chances for reelection high.
