The IMF approved an immediate disbursement of about $138 million to El Salvador after waiving breaches related to Bitcoin accumulation in its $1.4 billion lending program. The IMF accepted El Salvador's documentation showing recent Bitcoin additions came from private donations, not public funds, and expects no further Bitcoin accumulation beyond these donations. The Fund also noted El Salvador's move to reduce government control over the Chivo Bitcoin wallet, with majority ownership now private. The IMF projects El Salvador's economy to grow 4.5% in 2026 and 4% in 2027, while urging continued fiscal reforms and improved crypto asset oversight.
