Turkish lira

[Taylan]

i just want to point out, they decide to remove turkish lira, just when it became stable again. They were happy when turkish players lose %80 of their money in few years while funds were waiting in our steam wallet.
And the little lie they tell us is that "mounths long grinding developers to make game, cant dicide the price of their game to turkish liras ?"
Btw removing russian rubbles was not a question when ukrainian war started and russian rubbles lost their value against usd by half, and than gained back the value and made some sort of alltime high of a year.
It is all just nonsense

The way I see it, the lira lost over 30% of it's value against the USD this year alone. So did it stabilize and recover yesterday or something? At any rate you're free to your own opinions, not your own facts.

Not to judge too broadly but from the existing threads quiet a few turkish players seem to MASSIVELY overerstimate their importance to Steam and the strength of their own economy.

Turkey had a 60% inflation rate in September 2023 compared to last year.
That is not sustainable in any form if you want a stable currency.
If you dont get that under control there is no chance that Valve will ever reinstate Turkish Lira as a regional currency.

That does seem to be a common theme, ego is a hell of a drug. Although I understand no one likes feeling they're being targeted, punished singled out. Lots of users seem to think blaming region hopping as the primary issue will also somehow negate the currency issue. The mental gymnastics are Olympic class to be sure.

I must have missed the memo where having a big CS:GO inventory contributes to the terrible economy of your country?

The state of the Turkish economy isn't some secret you can gaslight people into ignoring.

Well, it kind of is a "secret" since it's not been major headlines for some time. Last I heard was Erdogan allowing Sweden into NATO -- an article that didn't even mention their economic troubles.

Because how the lira is treated is not dependent on the ruble. Whatever the state of the ruble is today and Valve's decisions about it at the moment may change at any point. At the moment trade with Russia is suspended though so... Valve doesn't need to address a currency they're not even accepting.

Your whataboutism is just there to massage your ego. It doesn't actually have relevance outside of that.
