Chad vs Turkey
Crypto regulation comparison
Chad
Turkey
No Regulation
Legal
Chad has no specific cryptocurrency regulation. As a CEMAC member, it falls under BEAC oversight.
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.
