As detailed by the global financial institution, further funding will be provided by the World Bank and the Inter-American Developmental Bank, as well as other sources, to take the total support package beyond $3.5b. “The potential risks of the Bitcoin project will be diminished significantly in line with Fund policies,” said the IMF statement. “Legal reforms will make acceptance of Bitcoin by the private sector voluntary.
