The International Monetary Fund approved a $139 million disbursement to El Salvador despite the country breaching Bitcoin accumulation limits set in its Extended Fund Facility agreement. This waiver allows El Salvador to continue accessing IMF credit while maintaining fiscal flexibility, though it does not signal a policy change allowing future Bitcoin purchases. The decision sets a precedent for how the IMF might handle similar breaches as more countries explore digital assets. Details on the scope of the waiver and any new conditions remain unclear.
