FET VIRTUAL

Quick answer
Fetch

Fetch is classified as doubtful (mashbooh) with a Shariah compliance score of 69.7/100 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.

Before investing, screening crypto-assets for Shariah compliance is "absolutely essential." This includes legitimacy, project, financials, token, and staking mechanism screenings.

Virtual Protocol

Virtual Protocol is classified as doubtful (mashbooh) with a Shariah compliance score of 63.5/100 based on our scholar-approved methodology. The staking mechanism requires careful evaluation from an Islamic perspective.

My personal view is that many crypto-assets can be deemed digital assets, while some may serve as a medium of exchange within their specific networks.
