During his speech, he unveiled the Salvadoran government\u2019s wallet app and a signup bonus of $30 in bitcoin.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe wallet of the government of El Salvador is called Chivo,\u201d Bukele explained, adding that users must register with their phone number and national ID known as the DUI.<\/p>\n<p>Accounts are then verified by either facial recognition or through the call center. \u201cFacial recognition or verification by call center will only be done when creating the account. We do it this way to give security to the population,\u201d the president explained.<\/p>\n<p>Bukele further revealed:<\/p>\n<p>It will be within the Chivo app where we will deposit the equivalent $30 in bitcoin to promote its use in the economy and to give people an incentive to use the application.<\/p>\n<p>With the $30 incentive in bitcoin, he said, \u201cWe want the population to make use of this system and bitcoin as legal tender\u201d to boost the economy and \u201chelp the economic growth of the country.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>To obtain a DUI (Documento \u00danico de Identidad), which is needed for account verification, one must be at least 18 years old.
