- A la agencia se le ha dado libertad para colaborar y diseñar proyectos relacionados con Bitcoin y también unir fuerzas con organizaciones con sede en otras naciones para lo mismo.
- The ONBTC will also “design, diagnose, plan, program, coordinate, follow up, measure, analyze and evaluate plans, programs, and projects related to bitcoin for the economic development of the country.”

El Salvador, el primer país en aceptar Bitcoin (BTC), el world’s oldest and biggest crypto coin, como moneda de curso legal en septiembre del año pasado, ha vuelto a tomar una nueva iniciativa hacia la criptoadopción y ha establecido la Oficina Nacional de Bitcoin (ONBTC) que estará liderando todos los proyectos relacionados con blockchain y criptomonedas en la nación centroamericana.
Según un reciente LinkedIn correo, the government created ONBTC whose aim is to manage “all projects related to the cryptocurrency” and also “work as a specialized administrative unit, with functional and technical autonomy within the Presidency of the Republic.”
“The creation of the entity was through Decree No. 49, published in the Official Gazette of November 17, signed by the President of the Republic, and the Minister of Tourism as in charge of the office of the Minister of Economy,” read the official confirmation from El Salvador.
Curiosamente, a la nueva agencia establecida en El Salvador también se le ha dado el poder de colaborar con otras naciones cuando se trata de asuntos relacionados con cripto y Bitcoin (BTC). Esta es la primera vez que un gobierno establece un organismo que ha adoptado la criptomoneda líder como moneda de curso legal.
The agency has been given freedom to collaborate and design projects involving Bitcoin and also join forces with organizations based in other nations for the same. The ONBTC will also “design, diagnose, plan, program, coordinate, follow up, measure, analyze and evaluate plans, programs, and projects related to bitcoin for the economic development of the country.”
The new agency will also be responsible for analyzing all the individuals as well as entities who wish to meet and speak to the President of El Salvador, Nayib Bukele, regarding Bitcoin projects and the Central American nation’s blockchain technology-driven path.
“Another task of the Bitcoin Office is to coordinate the actions related to the formulation of relevant policies on Bitcoin and Blockchain that the Presidency determines in the short, medium and long term and its correspondence with the economic and educational programs in coordination with the corresponding Institutions,” read the post.
Lastly, the post also confirmed that the public bodies in El Salvador will have to collaborate with ONBTC “for the fulfillment of its functions and objectives.” An example of the same was also given in the post, stating that the Ministry of Foregin Affairs “will collaborate in cases of international cooperation, while the autonomous and municipalities may do so to the extent that their regulations allow.”
El Salvador and its President’s bullish stance on Bitcoin and blockchain refuses to fade despite the colapso del criptoexchange multimillonario FTX y la caída de precios que siguió. El presidente Bukele anunció que la nación centroamericana seguirá comprando 1 BTC por día en medio del mercado bajista. El gobierno también está en camino a debut Bitcoin-backed “volcano” bonds.
