Buying Cryptocurrency in Turkey
With the Turkish Lira down 40% against the dollar this year and blame being placed on the US for putting sanctions on Turkey (who doesn’t love blaming the US for their problems), buying bitcoin in Turkey is becoming a way of life.
So it is nice that a currency exists that Erdogan and his supporters can’t control and manipulate, while many see the Turkish Lira as more volatile than bitcoin currently.
Popular Crypto Currency Exchanges in Turkey to Buy Bitcoin
The largest bitcoin exchanges in Turkey like BTCTurk, Paribu and Koinim are seeing large increases of bitcoin buying for Turkish Lira.
The common reason some people in Turkey avoid such exchanges is the lack of privacy customers have with identification requirements on purchases. This is why many use anonymous exchanges that are available worldwide, to keep their information secure and private.

Best Exchanges in Turkey to Buy and Trade Alt-coins
The popular alt-coin exchange Binance is on everyone’s list as one of the best places to act like a day trader with crypto currencies. With the company allowing small purchases of altcoins without need for kyc/aml, it has become one of the top exchanges worldwide.
Online Gambling from Turkey
The irony of online gambling being almost entirely banned, other than the state-sponsored betting site for sports should not be lost on anyone. The country that cannot keep a stable currency with the Turkish Lira, also offers sports betting with terrible betting odds for anyone who uses the “legal” gambling offered in the country.
For anyone in Turkey that owns bitcoin though, there are online sites offering Turkey sports betting and casino.
What better way to celebrate purchasing bitcoin with useless Turkish Lira’s and no longer having to gamble on Erdogan’s ability to “fix” the currency crisis?
This site is intended for people over the age of 18 that never gamble what they can’t afford to lose.
