Argentine senators and senior government officials are very interested in Bitcoin. During an official visit to Argentina, Salvadoran President Nayib Bukele met with a group of national senators and the Vice President of Argentina to discuss the topic of cryptocurrency.

Although the discussion was private, a video before the meeting showed that Argentine Vice President Victoria Villarruel asked about El Salvador's experience in the field of Bitcoin, which El Salvador has used as legal tender for many years.

Villarruel said: "I personally want to use these few minutes to talk to you about Bitcoin, which is something I am very interested in."

In addition, Villarruel has also shown interest in the so-called volcanic bonds, which have been shelved for several years. Bukele proposed the bonds as part of a plan to finance Bitcoin City, a bitcoin-centric metropolis that was announced in 2021 but has yet to be built. (Bitcoin.com)
