Nayib Bukele's recent landslide victory securing another five years as president of El Salvador is undoubtedly significant, but it may not be sufficient to propel the country's ambitious Bitcoin experiment forward. Despite Bukele's fervent support for Bitcoin, challenges abound in realizing El Salvador's vision of becoming a global leader in Bitcoin adoption, as noted by local merchants and enthusiasts. The journey towards Bitcoin integration in El Salvador has been fraught with obstacles, including a population largely unfamiliar with technology and difficulties in enforcing merchant compliance. Issues stemming from the rollout of the Chivo Wallet, such as technical glitches and a lack of merchant readiness, have persisted, dampening widespread adoption. Moreover, fluctuating market conditions, with Bitcoin's price trajectory being mostly sideways, have further complicated the situation, resulting in diminished customer demand for Bitcoin payments.
