Cryptocurrency remittances to El Salvador rose 35.7% through July, but still represent 0.69% of the total

Cryptocurrency remittances to El Salvador experienced a 35.7 percent increase through July, yet they continue to account for a minor share at 0.69 percent of total remittances received by the country. Despite the administration of President Nayib Bukele maintaining a daily strategy of purchasing bitcoin, the everyday utilization of the cryptocurrency among the general Salvadoran population has remained virtually non-existent.

Concurrently, distinct fiscal developments are unfolding in the Dominican Republic, where the government accelerated the issuance of new public debt between January and July 2026. This move doubled the placement pace seen over the previous three years and brought the nation's credit commitments closer to the 68 billion dollar threshold.
