An unusual event occurred on Binance TR, the Turkish branch of the cryptocurrency exchange Binance, during yesterday's major cryptocurrency crash. During yesterday's drop in Bitcoin's Turkish Lira pair, BTC/TRY, the price momentarily dropped to 51,600 Turkish Lira. This means that the price, which was hovering around 4.9 million Turkish Lira at the time, lost approximately 99% of its value in a very short period. This unusual event is likely attributed to the lack of liquidity in the Turkish Lira pair and the sudden liquidation of positions.
