Odaily Planet Daily reports that El Salvador has officially announced the integration of Bitcoin and artificial intelligence as a national policy. By January 1, 2026, the country’s treasury reserves have reached 7,517 Bitcoins, worth over $660 million. The plan aims to utilize surplus geothermal energy to build data centers and AI special zones, providing a tax-free environment for automation industries and decentralized financial services. Additionally, El Salvador has passed legislative amendments to convert Bitcoin from a mandatory to a voluntary legal currency, ensuring that taxes are paid in US dollars, thereby securing $1.4 billion in funding from the International Monetary Fund. Meanwhile, El Salvador is collaborating with technology leaders such as Genius Act and xAI to implement AI-driven educational programs nationwide.
