Turkey loved blockchain!
The adoption rate of cryptocurrencies in Turkey continues to increase. This development in the country also mobilizes crypto money companies and stock markets that are looking for markets.. Especially with the publication of Statista’s “Cryptocurrency Global Consumer Survey” and the determination of Turkey as the largest market in Europe, big companies are flocking to our country. With the establishment of their offices in Istanbul, the largest city and business center of Turkey, the big players of Europe such as Crypto.com and Bitpanda are preparing to invest in our country.. So much so that our country’s national currency, the Turkish Lira, is becoming one of the regular trading pairs on global stock markets.
The Turkish government and the private sector have taken active steps towards Blockchain adoption: The government, which has prepared plans for a national blockchain infrastructure, also , detailed a roadmap for the central bank digital currency. At the same time, the country’s financial watchdog, the Capital Markets Board, announced its plans to design a regulatory framework for crypto.

Bitcoin is at an all-time high against the Turkish Lira!
2020 was not a bright year for the Turkish economy. In addition to the panic created by the Covid-19 epidemic, the country’s gradually falling democracy index has caused the Turkish lira to experience sharp drops against Bitcoin, the Dollar and many other currencies in the global market.. The fact that the dollar is based on 8 lira in the country has caused Bitcoin circulating in 2017 ATH prices to reach its highest level against the Turkish lira.. (The dollar was 3.86 lira on December 17, 2017, when Bitcoin made its 2017 ATH)
Although the Turkish economy was once Ottoman, Even though the country is going through a difficult process like the Interregnum, the interest in crypto continues to increase in the country.

strong> announced that they have reached the user.

The most popular in Turkey. 5 cryptocurrencies!
In its report, Information Technologies and Communications Authority (BTK) announced the 5 most invested cryptocurrencies in Turkey.
The statement from the institution was as follows:
“In the light of the researches, as of 2020, more than 2,400,000 people in Turkey have crypto money.. The 5 most invested cryptocurrencies in Turkey are defined as Bitcoin (BTC), Ripple (XRP), Digibyte (DGB), Bitcoin Cash (BCH) and Stellar (XLM).”
What to expect from 2021?
Turkey is closing 2020 without a blockchain-based national currency or a clear regulation on crypto. However, this does not mean that the government has completely taken a break. Regulators are working very actively towards ‘Anti-Money Laundering’, the biggest obstacle to crypto. Local trading platforms report that they are in constant communication with authorities about any suspicious activity.
It looks like Turkey will continue to grow as a regional hub for crypto and blockchain projects in 2021 and beyond. If crypto-friendly regulations from the authorities are added to this, there is no obstacle in front of Turkey’s path to becoming a complete crypto paradise.
