Ivory Coast vs Turkey

Crypto regulation comparison

Ivory Coast

Ivory Coast

Turkey

Turkey

No Regulation
Legal

Ivory Coast has no specific cryptocurrency legislation. As a WAEMU member under BCEAO oversight, it follows regional monetary policy. Growing fintech interest is driving discussions around crypto regulation.

Turkey has one of the highest crypto adoption rates globally, driven by lira depreciation and high inflation. While crypto ownership is legal, the CBRT banned crypto payments in April 2021. In 2024, Turkey passed comprehensive crypto legislation under the Capital Markets Law amendment, giving the CMB authority to license and regulate crypto asset service providers. No crypto-specific tax exists yet, though legislation is under consideration. MASAK (Financial Crimes Investigation Board) oversees AML compliance.
