Coin verdict · Layer 1 / smart-contract platform · Updated 2026-04-26
Ethereum is the leading smart-contract platform, launched in July 2015 by Vitalik Buterin and team. After the September 2022 Merge, Ethereum transitioned from proof-of-work to proof-of-stake. The Securities Commission Malaysia's Shariah Advisory Council has explicitly approved ETH for Shariah-compliant trading on registered Digital Asset Exchanges. The post-Merge staking yield introduces a riba conversation that we resolve at the protocol level (the bot holds spot ETH and does not stake).

Per AAOIFI-aligned framework, our screening shows: Per AAOIFI-aligned framework, our screening shows Ethereum spot ownership passes our gates. Subscribers should not engage in lending, borrowing, or interest-bearing DeFi using their ETH; the bot does not.
Our framework uses an AAOIFI-aligned methodology, with Saudi Permanent Committee for Scholarly Research and Ifta and public Islamic-finance references.
Spot ETH itself has no embedded interest. Native staking yields ~3% APR — but our bot does not stake. We hold spot ETH only. Liquid-staking derivatives (stETH, rETH) are separate products with their own screening; they are not the same instrument as ETH.
Asset specifications, supply schedule, and on-chain settlement are publicly verifiable. Spot ownership transfers cleanly with no embedded contingent payoffs. ETH supply schedule is protocol-defined, with EIP-1559 fee burning. On-chain settlement is final.
Spot purchase is direct ownership of a defined asset, not a wager. Our bot never places leverage, futures, perpetuals, options, or margin trades — eliminating the maysir vector at execution.
Ethereum hosts a wide range of dApps including some Shariah-questionable ones (gambling dApps, interest-bearing DeFi). The base ETH asset, however, is platform-neutral. We treat ETH the same way mainstream AAOIFI commentary treats currency: the chain is a neutral medium; protocol-level revenue is gas fees, not gambling rake.
ETH clears all tier liquidity gates by a wide margin.
Per AAOIFI-aligned framework, our screening shows Ethereum spot ownership passes our gates. Subscribers should not engage in lending, borrowing, or interest-bearing DeFi using their ETH; the bot does not.

Per AAOIFI-aligned framework, spot ETH passes our gates. The Securities Commission Malaysia's Shariah Advisory Council has formally approved ETH for Shariah-compliant trading.
This is an open scholarly debate. Conservative AAOIFI-aligned readings treat staking yield with caution. Our bot holds spot only and does not stake — keeping the verdict clean.
Each stablecoin is a separate screening. Interest-collateralised stables (T-bill backed) fail our riba gate; commodity-collateralised or transparently fiat-cash-collateralised stables are evaluated case by case.
Most yield-farming structures involve riba or excessive gharar and fail our framework. Spot ETH ownership is not the same as DeFi participation.
All three. ETH clears every liquidity threshold.
Why every leverage product, perp, and option is structurally excluded from every tier.
Position sizing, stop logic, profit cadence — all derived from our halal mandate.
Step-by-step: pick a tier, generate read+spot keys, fund, and let the bot work.
How the bot works end-to-end: signal, screen, size, place, exit, and report.
