El Salvador body to investigate complaints about government’s bitcoin purchases, ATM kiosks
El Salvador’s Court of Accounts, which oversees its public resources, will investigate a complaint about the government’s bitcoin purchases and the construction of kiosks for cryptocurrency ATMs, according to a document seen by Reuters. El Salvador this month became the first country in the world to adopt bitcoin as legal tender, a move championed by the country’s popular President Nayib Bukele. The government has also launched a digital wallet, Chivo, which is linked to newly-built cryptocurrency cash machines that allow users to withdraw physical money from their digital bitcoin holdings.
