The IMF has consistently pressured El Salvador to revert to traditional financial systems, despite acknowledging that many risks of Bitcoin adoption have not materialized. The IMF’s stance against Bitcoin contrasts with its support for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), as seen in its recent ‘REDI’ framework for CBDC development.
