Nayib Bukele has achieved a 94% approval rating, the highest among 26 global leaders, while continuing to champion sovereign Bitcoin adoption.
El Salvador holds more than 7,600 Bitcoin and continues buying roughly one BTC daily, maintaining one of the most aggressive national crypto strategies.
The country became the first to adopt Bitcoin as legal tender in 2021, though surveys suggest Bukele’s popularity is driven more by security policies than crypto initiatives.
Other pro-crypto leaders trail significantly, including Lee Jae-myung at 63%, who has pledged Bitcoin ETFs and a stablecoin, and Javier Milei at 48%.
Donald Trump ranks lower at 38% despite establishing a US Strategic Bitcoin Reserve funded by seized assets.
The data suggests that strong pro-Bitcoin policies have not negatively impacted political approval, though voters remain more focused on economic and security outcomes.
Bukele’s position highlights how crypto adoption can coexist with broader political popularity, even if it is not the primary driver of voter support.
At the time of reporting, Bitcoin price was $74,355.88.
