Bitcoin (BTC)

Didem Soydan:

My boyfriend at the time said to me, ‘There’s something called bitcoin, do you want to buy it?’ year 2012

He got me to download the app, I sent the money from the bank, deposited it there, and 10 days after depositing I moved to New York.

About 4 years passed, I had neither the app nor looked at it again.

At the end of the 4th year, when Umut visited me again, we were eating on the side. I was having a heated conversation with one of my other friends."

They were talking about Bitcoin. I still remember eating and asking ‘what did you say?’ and he said ‘Bitcoin’.

We downloaded the app that night. The app message was sent to my Turkish number.

My sister, half‑asleep, opened my Bitcoin account and told me ‘we’re rich’.

That money caused many investments for our brand and kept all of us afloat during the pandemic.
