Off topic but still worth mentioning: To this day, Turkey denies its role in the Seyfo Genocide of 1915 that involved defenseless Armenian, Assyrian, and Greek women and children/infants. Over 2 million combined people perished, and unspeakable (gender-specific) crimes were committed against these people. Just last year, Turkish President Erdogan called survivors of this genocide and their descendants “leftovers of the sword.” A few days ago, Biden took the position of formally acknowledging the genocide. Erdogan and the government of Turkey pleaded with him to reconsider his statement by denying the genocide even happened in the first place.
First they ban bitcoin payments, now they deny genocide. Truly a trashy government if I’ve ever seen one.
Edit: Turkey didn’t totally ban crypto. They just banned businesses from accepting it as a form of payment.
