The Turkish Parliament's post-holiday session was expected to bring clarity to the country's digital asset landscape with a long-awaited cryptocurrency regulation bill. However, the debate on the crypto tax law was postponed due to lack of quorum.
Despite opposition concerns over the hasty legislative process, they remained silent about the proposed tax rates of up to 40% on withdrawals from global exchanges. This has sparked considerable pushback among Turkish crypto investors who use international trading platforms.
The bill's provisions have been met with anxiety among stakeholders, and it is unclear whether any changes will be made before its next scheduled session in March 2026. Lawmakers and industry watchers are keeping a close eye on developments.
