What's up everyone? Welcome back to another language learning video with Cointelegraph. Today I am joined by Erhan Karman from Turkey.
We are going to learn today the Turkish off distributed ledger. As we recently reported, the first international trade finance is completed between Turkey and Germany on distributed ledger technology on Marco Polo blockchain.
So let's start with the word. What are the words? I'm ready.
There are two words as the distributed leisure. It's.
Come again.
It's hard for even for Turkish people.
Oh no, I'm going to absolutely murder this one. Let's start with distributed. Can you just say it like really slowly?
Yes.
Okay.
That'S perfect. That's you landed.
And ledger.
And devtar. Devtar.
Devtas.
Devtar ends with an R. Devtar. That's very good. That's correct. Now combine it. That's as close as possible.
Yeah, I'm not gonna do it again. That was good enough.
Turkey is known as a pro blockchain and crypto friendly country. Our government, the Turkish government has a solid roadmap for a national blockchain infrastructure. And also we have a plan for a central bank digital currency in the finance ecosystem of Turkey. I believe the blockchain will play a critical role in the future.
All right, well, thank you so much for joining me today, Erhan. It was a great pleasure and I can't wait to do this again.
