Nayib Bukele took jabs at Robert Menendez following the latter’s conviction on corruption charges, leading to an 11-year prison sentence. Menendez had criticized Bitcoin for allegedly opening doors to corruption in El Salvador.
The irony lies in Menendez’s vocal opposition to Bitcoin, branding it as a criminal tool, while legal investigations uncovered significant cash and gold bars related to his corruption charges. This connection marks a stark contrast between his views on BTC and his own misconduct.
