Users opinion
Some users stated their doubts about the new partnership between Binance and Akbank in the comment sections of Binance’s tweet. Although some of them believe the first-ever collaboration with a traditional bank will move BNB to the moon, the others think maybe the Turkish government by Erdogan is against that. Perhaps the initiative will shut down soon.
