El Salvador's official digital bitcoin wallet Chivo will be sold or discontinued, an official said on Thursday, a day after the Central American country struck an agreement with the International Monetary Fund (IMF). Stacy Herbert, director of the national bitcoin office, said the cryptocurrency would remain a legal tender and that the government would continue to buy it, possibly at an accelerated pace, for its strategic reserves. On Wednesday, El Salvador struck a $1.4 billion loan deal with the IMF after agreeing that it would scale back its bitcoin policies.
