Crypto Cross Prediction Calculator
Calculate and predict cross rates for Bitcoin and Ethereum against Turkish Lira using BTC/USD, ETH/USD, and USD/TRY values.
How Crypto Cross Rates Work
A crypto cross rate is the exchange rate between a cryptocurrency and a currency that doesn't have a direct trading pair. Since most cryptocurrencies trade primarily against USD, calculating rates like BTC/TRY or ETH/EUR requires using USD as an intermediary.
Formula: BTC/TRY = BTC/USD × USD/TRY
Example: If BTC/USD = $65,000 and USD/TRY = 32, then BTC/TRY = 65,000 × 32 = 2,080,000 TL
