Since Turkey was the host nation of Blockchain Turkey Summit 2018, it was perfect for the popular Menapay to showcase it’s product and service to the Middle East and North African region.

Turkey was witness to its citizens backing up their belief with Cryptocurrencies after the Turkish Lira hit an all-time low against the Dollar in August this year. The main reason for this was the sour relationship with the US leading to financial constraints.



Turkey even made groundbreaking developments in Blockchain with the first Turkish Blockchain centre called The Istanbul Blockchain and Innovation Center (BlockchainIST Center). The BlockchainIST Center will help in researching and deployment of Blockchain technology throughout Turkey.



In September 2018, Borsa Istanbul which is Turkey’s state-backed stock exchange announced the development of a Blockchain platform. It will help store details of new customers and share documents on a decentralised network.
