Huobi Global Expands into Turkey from Dubai

Huobi announced that it will be moving into the Turkish market over the next 12 months. Their  plan is to develop a fiat onramp for Turkish Lira, a branch office with local resources in Turkey, and localized products and customer services. 

"Turkey is a very important and promising prospective market for us and we plan to take an aggressive approach to bring the Huobi ecosystem there," said Huobi Global CEO Livio Weng, fresh off a Huobi-sponsored meetup in Istanbul.  The event was attended by traders, crypto enthusiasts, and blockchain professionals, including digital economy expert Erkan Öz and lecturer and cryptocurrency mentor Ismail Hakki Polat.  

Huobi's expansion into Turkey will be overseen by Huobi MENA, headquartered in Dubai. Huobi MENA focuses on the operations and expansion of Huobi in Turkey, Middle East and Africa regions.

"We are really excited with the response we received from the Turkish community. With their support, we successfully pulled off one of the largest crypto events in Turkey. We've already added a Turkish language option to the Huobi Global website and will also be rolling out Turkish language customer support and a Turkish language mobile app. Other than this, we've also launched Huobi Tokens for the Turkish users, which gives them access to Huobi Prime and Fast Track. We also hope to have a crypto-to-fiat onramp for Turkish users by the end of the year." said Mohit Davar, Co-Founder of Huobi MENA.
