All for a mere $1.4B in international loans from the (supposedly evil and corrupt) IMF…

Wasn’t El Salvador supposed to be Balaji’s first “Network State”? What happened to strike wallet and that whole crypto grifter crew?

Do you mean Chivo wallet? It will probably shut down. Strike is still operating (in many countries including the US and El Salvador) and has a physical office in El Salvador.
