The Central American country’s official Bitcoin Office confirmed the engagement, noting that both leaders explored opportunities for collaboration between the United States and El Salvador in the digital asset space.
“[President Bukele and Bo Hines] discussed collaboration between the United States and El Salvador on bitcoin and digital assets.”
This diplomatic engagement may be tied to Trump’s broader crypto agenda.
“El Salvador is preparing our young people to become global tech leaders by not just teaching them the required technical skills but by also giving them an ethical and philosophical foundation to build the world they want to see.”
