Bukele is popular for security, not for Bitcoin. The crypto strategy has not yet convinced the people. Persisting may work in the future, but today the support is quite low.

El Salvador's President Nayib Bukele maintains a strong approval rating of 91.9%, largely due to enhanced security measures. According to NS3.AI, despite Bukele's popularity, his Bitcoin initiative has not garnered widespread support, with only 2.2% of the population considering it successful. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) is urging the government to reduce its focus on Bitcoin. Nevertheless, El Salvador persists in purchasing one Bitcoin daily, demonstrating Bukele's dedication to his cryptocurrency strategy.
