El Salvador’s national bitcoin reserves have declined by roughly $300 million in value following a broader market downturn. The country holds approximately 7,560 BTC, according to figures cited from the National Bitcoin Office.
At current prices near $69,600, the holdings are valued at about $526 million, down from a peak of roughly $800 million in October 2025.
The sharp drawdown has renewed scrutiny of the nation’s strategy of adopting bitcoin as a treasury asset. El Salvador became the first country to recognize bitcoin as legal tender, tying part of its financial policy to cryptocurrency performance.
The valuation drop comes as the government faces International Monetary Fund program reviews and upcoming debt obligations. Analysts say continued volatility in bitcoin markets could influence fiscal planning and investor sentiment toward the country’s broader economic outlook.
