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.

You must follow the stance of your own trusted scholar or shaykh in matters where legitimate scholarly differences exist.
