#12Why don't they just sell in Euro/USD? That's what people did a few decades ago a bit further north, when the local currency wasn't trusted (even if it was rather stable). But yeah, inflation in Eastern Europe is pretty bad, and if you voted for a bunch of dumb assholes who don't care about you or the nation, you're multifucked.
How did Turkey find its way to Eastern Europe?
It bridges Europe and Asia and geographically considered a part of both, according to wiki.

It shares land borders with Bulgaria and Greece.

Right, because although the Lira is the most volatile currency, a 15% one day move is a black swan. For bitcoin, it happens every couple of months.

Why do it in Bitcoin when you can do it in Lira ?

No phone would be sold because transactions take hours.
