Billy Markus, a co-founder of Dogecoin, welcomed Bukele to the “McDonald's club.” This comes after a Twitter exchange between Markus and the fast-food giant sparked a rush of requests for McDonald's to accept DOGE<\/a> as a form of payment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of how great his meme game is, Cardano founder Charles Hoskinson<\/a> joked that the self-proclaimed “CEO of El Salvador” might be the “chosen one.”<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nayib Bukele criticised for his Bitcoin decision in El Salvador<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Getting a job at the fast-food behemoth amid market downturns has long been a running joke. Disillusioned bitcoin investors and traders who are cash-strapped must accept the harsh truth and work in the service industry for up to 40 hours per week at minimum wage.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In the last few days, during the last violent Bitcoin sell-off,<\/a> Bukele received a lot of criticism. El Salvador has now lost an estimated $20 million in Bitcoin investments, with Bukele's purchases all in the negative.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Because of the president's ill-timed purchases, some joked that the impoverished country will soon become the first “fourth-world” country. Bitcoin isn't going away for the world's “coolest dictator.” On January 21, he revealed yet another purchase, this time for $15 million for 400 BTC<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After plummeting to $34,000 <\/a>on January 22, bitcoin is now trading near $36,000. Last September, El Salvador made the largest cryptocurrency its official currency.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
