Particularly, the innovative project aims to draw finance and investors to El Salvador. Plans to issue $1 billion in bonds on the Liquid Network, a federated Bitcoin sidechain, were made public at the time. 

Proceeds from the bonds would be split between a $500 million direct allocation to bitcoin. Additionally, is an investment of the same amount in the development of the area’s energy and bitcoin mining infrastructure. A sidechain is a separate blockchain that operates in tandem with another blockchain. It enables the secure usage of tokens from the main blockchain. It also adheres to a different set of guidelines, performance standards, and security measures.

With a two-way peg, Liquid’s sidechain for Bitcoin enables bitcoin to move between the Liquid and Bitcoin networks. L-BTC is a symbol for bitcoin that is used on the Liquid network. The network’s users, known as functionaries, administer and safeguard its verifiably comparable quantity of Bitcoin.

“Digital securities law will enable El Salvador to be the financial center of central and south America,” wrote Paolo Ardoino, CTO of cryptocurrency exchange Bitfinex, on Twitter.

To conduct and list the bond issuance in El Salvador, Bitfinex will soon receive a license.

Investors will be able to obtain citizenship quickly through the bonds, which will yield 6.5%. Once the first $500 million has been monetized, the government will distribute half of the additional gains to investors as a Bitcoin Dividend. The asset management platform of Blockstream will be used to distribute these dividends on a yearly basis.
