Did El Salvador’s Bitcoin Investment Payoff?

The Latin Wealth

In today's episode, we’re diving into major news from Latin America and the U.S. Puerto Rico and El Salvador are making headlines with political and economic shifts that could signal broader changes for the region. First, El Salvador’s bold move to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender seems to be paying off in a big way, with nearly $93 million in unrealized profits. President Nayib Bukele’s Bitcoin strategy, which includes geothermal Bitcoin mining and ambitious projects like "Bitcoin City," is redefining El Salvador’s economic landscape. With a debt-free 2025 budget on the horizon, Bukele is showing critics that his unconventional financial approach might just be working.

On the political front, Puerto Rico's pro-statehood candidate Jenniffer González-Colón, a prominent Trump ally, won the governor's race, becoming the first Republican to hold the office since 2008. With Puerto Rico’s recent election results, we’re seeing a shift in voter priorities, as pro-statehood and independence parties gain ground over traditional territorial status advocates.

We’ll also be analyzing Latino voter turnout in the recent U.S. elections and the significant message it sends about the issues they care about most. Join us as we unpack these major developments and explore what they mean for Puerto Rico, El Salvador, and the broader Latin American community.
