El Salvador has once again reaffirmed its commitment to Bitcoin, this time by making a symbolic purchase of 21 BTC – worth about $2.3 million – to mark the fourth anniversary of its Bitcoin Law.

President Nayib Bukele announced the buy on social media, describing it as a way to honor “Bitcoin Day,” the moment in 2021 when the country first recognized BTC as legal tender.

Reserves Keep Growing Despite Criticism

The latest acquisition lifts the nation’s Bitcoin holdings to more than 6,300 BTC, valued at just over $700 million. For months, the government’s National Bitcoin Office has also been quietly adding to reserves with a one-BTC-per-day accumulation plan, showing that its strategy is not merely symbolic but systematic.

Security and Regulation Updates

The celebration comes shortly after El Salvador distributed its holdings across 14 wallets as a safeguard against potential future risks, including so-called quantum threats. At the same time, lawmakers approved new legislation giving major banks and financial institutions the green light to offer Bitcoin and digital asset services to professional investors.

IMF Disagreement Lingers

The continued buying runs counter to statements made in July by the finance ministry and central bank, which told the IMF that public purchases had ended earlier this year under the terms of a loan deal. Bukele, however, has repeatedly dismissed outside pressure, insisting in March that accumulation “won’t stop now, and it won’t stop in the future.”

Is Hyperliquid the new frontier for innovation?

The post Is Hyperliquid the new frontier for innovation? appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. This is a segment from the 0xResearch newsletter. To read full editions, subscribe. One of the key things I like to track in crypto is a subjective criterion I call “where are new interesting developments and proposals taking place.” There are plenty of dashboards and analytics sites for this, the most popular being the Electric Capital site. The issue is that it still shows Polkadot as having a lot of developers. (At Blockworks we solved the noise problem with active users; maybe we can try the same for active developers.) Because of this noise, I prefer to track two simple observations: What is the velocity of new products launching, and how much mindshare are these products capturing? Are many people getting nerdsniped into discussing the novelties and intricacies of the chain? A related point is the caliber of people being attracted to new ecosystems. For example, over the past few years, Solana (and Ethereum) attracted the majority of talent. Talent generally goes where: It can solve interesting problems or create interesting projects. It can make a lot of money. In a podcast I did with Icebergy about a year ago, we discussed how crypto still wasn’t attracting talent at the levels AI was, despite offering faster exits and more money. AI was (and probably still is) more interesting to most talent and seen as more prestigious. After FTX, crypto lost a lot of credibility and has only recently started recovering as larger institutional players re-entered. Apart from FTX, crypto has also been criticized for being full of low-effort forks and limited utility products. This dynamic isn’t unique to crypto though. Many AI companies are also just building wrappers around GPT, which is as uninteresting as some projects in crypto. Anyway, to the point: Historically, Solana has captured the majority of…
