What is Modular Blockchain?

A modular blockchain is a network designed to handle only one or two of the core functions of a blockchain stack—execution, settlement, consensus, or data availability—rather than performing all of them within a single monolithic chain. These functions are instead distributed across specialized layers, such as rollups for execution and dedicated networks like Celestia or EigenDA for data availability, which communicate through defined interfaces. This separation allows each layer to scale or upgrade independently, and native tokens in this category typically serve to pay for data publishing, secure the network via staking, or coordinate between layers.

How CryptoUmmah screens Modular Blockchain coins

As with every category we track, coins here are screened individually against our 27-point methodology across the three core pillars — riba (interest), gharar (uncertainty), and maysir (speculation/gambling) — rather than being judged by category label alone. Two coins sharing this tag can land on very different verdicts depending on their specific tokenomics, revenue model, and governance structure. Across the 12 Modular Blockchain coins we've screened, the average Shariah compliance score sits at 64.8/100, with 33% classified Halal, 58% Mashbooh, and 8% Haram.
