Salvador President Hits Back at Opposition Over Bitcoin Law Criticism

Nayib Bukele, the president of the Central American nation Salvador has hit back at the opposition leaders for creating fear among people over the recently passed Bitcoin law. The President said the Bitcoin bill was passed by congress through a democratic process and the falsehood created by some leaders in the opposition is uncalled for. He said,

Many in the opposition have wanted to confuse the Salvadoran people about Bitcoin, inventing falsehoods and trying to put fear where there is no problem.

Muchos en la oposicion han querido confundir al pueblo salvadoreno sobre la #LeyBitcoin, inventando falsedades y tratando de meter miedos donde no existe ningun problema.

Como lo dije el 1 de junio en la @AsambleaSV: el aparato ideologico lucha por volver a controlar el Estado.
