The Regulation on Not Using Crypto Assets in Payments entered our lives after being published in the Official Gazette on April 16, 2021. With this regulation, it has taken its place in our crypto asset law for the first time. The Regulation defining the crypto asset has regulated that crypto assets cannot be used directly or indirectly in payments and that services cannot be provided for direct or indirect use in payments. At the same time, the Regulation stated that payment service providers cannot develop business models in a way that crypto assets can be used in providing payment services and issuing electronic money and that payment and electronic money institutions cannot mediate the platforms that provide trading, custody, transfer or issuance services for crypto assets or fund transfers from these platforms
