Turkey has one of the highest crypto ownership rates on earth
After the Turkish lira lost much of its purchasing power, crypto ownership in Turkey climbed to among the highest levels anywhere. Surveys suggest more than half of adults under 60 have bought crypto at some point, with dollar stablecoins widely used as a way to hold value as the lira weakens.
Why it matters for the crypto market
Turkey shows how fast everyday people adopt crypto when their own currency is losing value. It is one of the clearest examples of crypto used for saving rather than speculation.
