The government of El Salvador continues to purchase bitcoin almost daily, and according to a report published today, Monday, 26 Mordad 1405 (August 17, 2026), by ArzDigital, its holdings now stand at 7,743 bitcoin, worth about 490 million dollars. Per the report, the country has never sold a single unit of its bitcoin holdings since launching its government purchase program.
