President Trump invited President Nayib Bukele of El Salvador to the White House to discuss border security cooperation and immigration. However, Bitcoin could be a central topic in the negotiations.
This invitation follows a series of cordial exchanges between the two leaders. Trump publicly praised the efforts of Nayib Bukele for combating crime and facilitating the expulsion of criminals to the United States. The Salvadoran president, in turn, was very receptive to these gestures, even thanking Trump on his social network X.
Beyond the security aspect, the two men could also address the issue of Bitcoin. El Salvador holds over 6,100 BTC in its reserves, while the Trump administration recently set up a National Bitcoin Fund from seized cryptocurrencies. This convergence of interests suggests discussions on the regulation of digital assets, financial cooperation, or even joint blockchain initiatives.
Bukele could also use this meeting to secure economic advantages, especially after the recent imposition of customs tariffs by Trump. His administration could negotiate a reduction in customs duties on Salvadoran exports, which would greatly benefit the country’s economy, heavily reliant on textiles and agricultural products.
It remains to be seen whether Bitcoin will have a seat at the negotiation table. Undoubtedly, crypto sector observers will closely follow the outcomes of this meeting at the White House.
