Turkmenistan’s decision mirrors a broader regional trend. Now, Turkmenistan appears eager to follow a path, leveraging its power resources to attract crypto activity.

Where do they get their energy from?
AI say:
Turkmenistan derives almost all of its energy from its massive natural gas reserves, which dominate both domestic power generation (100% in some estimates) and the national economy.
