Risks Associated With Crytpo Investors In Turkey

Although Turkish citizens have invested millions of dollars in metaverse technologies, Turkish politicians are still not showing so much interest in investing in digital assets. Turkish President Tayyip Erdogan had no interest in holding cryptocurrencies and preferred to transact with its currency to maintain its identity. 

The Central Bank of Turkey applied a ban on using cryptocurrencies to sell and purchase local commodities in April 2021 due to high loss risks associated with the crypto transactions. 

In April 2021, Two famous Turkish crypto exchanges named Thodex and Vebitcoin collapsed, causing asset loss of million users.   

Although Turkey has an unpredictable regulatory atmosphere, three famous crypto exchanges, Bybit, Binance, and OKX, are still doing crypto business ventures there. However, Binance faced a fine of eight million lira worth $751,314 against various regulatory violations in December 2021.
