Bitcoin's (CRYPTO: BTC) blistering rise past $110,000 has handed El Salvador another headline-worthy windfall, prompting President Nayib Bukele to fire back at critics with a screenshot of the country's Bitcoin treasury and the quip, "They said, ‘Don't take screenshots, take profits.'" What Happened: Bukele's image, posted on X, pegs the nation's stash of roughly 6,180 BTC at $678 million—an unrealized gain of about $386 million, or 132%, on the $292 million the government has spent buying the dips since 2021.
