 Another proof you can’t trust a government even if it’s pro-bitcoin…

 I can't believe Chico is this old and nobody secured the data set.

 Afaik using Chivo is not even mandatory there… One can use Strike or any other wallet. This probably shows the downside of having a popular president who receives a lot of trust - people install and use whatever he recommends…

 I think they got the data from the registry office to send everyone the initial $30.

 El Salvador is crawling with Bitcoin devs, now, too. There's no excuse to not have had an audit.

Ha ha. Their data probably got leaked, too.

 The thing that upsets me most is that none of the articles seem to think it's weird that it's even possible to leak this data.

They all think the leak is the problem, not the data collection, handling, and complete lack of information security.

I bet anyone working on this database could see all this data. 😱

 Lol. Well played Bukele. Well played. 👏👏👏 You can't help but be a touch curious about Dorsey, Mallers, and Saylor as well.
