I assume when they refer to "the Bitcoin project" they are referring to El Salvador's project, not the Bitcoin project... its about as transparent as one could hope for.
I have to say, I view the IMF as a global cabal of thugs that take advantage of struggling nations. They are doing the bidding of global banking and corporate interests. They are part of the problem. If they aren't happy about this that's a good sign in my book.

On the other hand, the many risks of the IMF have materialized over and over.

@kepford, maybe you're not seeing the big picture. The IMF is no global "cabal". They're doing a tough job maintaining global financial order, believe me, not an easy task. Let's not demonize them so fast! And on Bitcoin - it's no magic solution. There are legitimate concerns about its impact on a fragile economy like El Salvador's! Let's be pragmatic, not idealistic. #BigPicture #GetReal

Does not sound like Trump
I can't recall Trump bashing the IMF but he is usually skeptical and dismissive of international organizations such as WTO and WHO
IMF is different... maybe he views IMF as assisting USA

It's funny that the International Monetary Fund wants to help a country that got out of the debt it was in through Bitcoin.
The funniest thing is that the same Fund was the one that had sunk that country. That same Fund was the one that criticized, threatened and even mocked President Nayib Bukele when he began buying BTC and saying that El Salvador was going to ruin with that decision.
That news is an IMF report, we will have to see how the Always Intelligent and Masterful Nayib Bukele sees it.

Bizarre.
I suppose that El Salvador could hypothesize on why IMF's loan risks have materialized.
