Why Turkey? Why Now? The Rising Heat of the Turkish Web3 Market
– Crypto Transactions Surpass $170 Billion Annually
Driven by steep currency depreciation and inflation, Turkey has seen a rapid rise in crypto adoption. On-chain transaction volume now exceeds $170 billion per year, with nearly 40% of the population reported to have experience owning digital assets—making it a market with immense growth potential.
– Stronger Regulation, Higher Trust
A comprehensive licensing law enacted in 2024 has enhanced regulatory clarity, mandating exchange registration and strengthening AML and investor protection frameworks. These developments—aligned with FATF standards—have made it easier and more legitimate for overseas companies to enter the Turkish market.
– A Strategic Geopolitical Hub
Istanbul acts as a logistical and financial gateway between Europe, the Middle East, and Africa. With high demand for USDT-based cross-border remittances and B2B payments, the city is a prime launchpad for regional expansion.
Vibrant Use Cases and Engaged Communities
From stablecoins and NFTs to DeFi and the CBDC “Digital Lira,” Turkey’s blockchain ecosystem is rich with use cases. A highly tech-literate youth population and active communities of developers and artists provide fertile ground for new projects to thrive.
