Re:El Salvador to airdrop $30 in Bitcoin to up to 6M citizens by lalaland1125 on Friday June 25, 2021 @11:48AM (#27632254)
If you look through the technical details this proposal, it 100% allows for money printing.

El Salvador isn't actually giving people Bitcoin. It's giving people records in an SQL database that supposedly correspond to Bitcoin in a government wallet.

The government can just edit that SQL database to print money.
