Turkish Residents Flock to Bitcoin During Military Coup

Tue Jul 19, 2016 3:27 am

The Turkish government is currently rounding up members of the groups that launched a military coup in recent days. During the coup, citizens ran to their banks and local ATMs to get their wealth out of the system as Turkey’s currency dropped significantly in value.

The Turkish Lira’s value has suffered as the military coup stirred fear throughout the country.
