El Salvador's national Bitcoin portfolio has reached a valuation of $644.4 million, showcasing a total gain of 124% on its investment. The country reports $357.2 million in unrealized profit and, to date, sold no Bitcoin.

According to President Nayib Bukele's latest tracking data, the Central American nation's Bitcoin holdings have now surpassed $644 million. Since El Salvador began acquiring BTC in 2021, it has realized a total return of 124.39%.

As of the latest data on January 2, 2025, the country's total investment in BTC stands at $287,183,812. Realized profit remains at $0, indicating no sales from its holdings.

Moreover, the data shows a 12.15% increase year to date, adding $69,810,776 in value to the portfolio. The recovery in Bitcoin's price during early 2024 played a key role in this growth.

This pushes the portfolio's value from a low of $25.4 million to a recent high of $655 million. A portfolio chart shows slow growth through 2022 and 2023, followed by a sharp increase in 2024. This upward trend has continued steadily into 2025.

In 2021, El Salvador became the first country to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender. Since then, the government has been accumulating Bitcoin at a nearly daily rate.

Earlier this year, El Salvador is continuing its Bitcoin accumulation strategy despite pressure from the International Monetary Fund (IMF).
