After a two-year hiatus due to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Blockchain Economy Summit is all set to return to Istanbul on July 27–28, 2022, at the Hilton Istanbul Bomonti Hotel, one of Istanbul’s most famous and well-known locations.
The 2nd Turkey edition was the last significant blockchain event hosted in Turkey before the COVID- 19 pandemic, and the 4th edition will be the first to bring the crypto community together on the crossroads of Europe and Asia.
Since the beginning of COVID-19, the popularity of cryptocurrencies has skyrocketed. According to the Chainanalysis 2021 Global Crypto Adoption Index, “at the end of Q2 2020, following a period of little growth, total global adoption stood at 2.5 based on our summed up country index scores.” At the end of Q2 2021, that total score stands at 24, suggesting that global adoption has grown by over 2300% since Q3 2019, and over 881% in the last year. “
Today, 13.6 million individuals, or 16 percent of Turkey’s population, possess cryptocurrency, making Turkey one of the world’s major crypto-owning countries. As a result, Turkey’s cryptocurrency market is hotter than it has ever been. The Blockchain Economy Istanbul Summit will bring together over 3,000 people from 55 countries, providing an unrivalled chance for regional networking with major industry leaders.
The future of finance will be discussed on the Blockchain Economy Istanbul Summit stage, including Bitcoin, Web 3, NFTs, Metaverse, DeFi, mining, cryptocurrency regulation, making money by investing in and trading cryptocurrencies, blockchain technology implementation in businesses and government, and much more.
