COTI LCX

Quick answer
COTI

COTI is classified as doubtful (mashbooh) with a Shariah compliance score of 69.8/100 based on our scholar-approved methodology. The staking mechanism requires careful evaluation from an Islamic perspective. Muslims should also carefully evaluate any DeFi protocols built on this platform to avoid interest-based applications.

The defining feature of money in Islam is that it is nothing but a medium of exchange. It is only that and serves nothing but that. It is not a commodity to trade or rent.

Mufti Faraz Adam
LCX

LCX is classified as doubtful (mashbooh) with a Shariah compliance score of 66.5/100 based on our scholar-approved methodology. The staking mechanism requires careful evaluation from an Islamic perspective.

Shariah does not require a currency to have intrinsic value; what matters is social acceptance.
