Is Conflux (CFX) halal?
Conflux is a Layer 1 launched in 2020, notable for being one of the few public chains operating with China-regulator alignment. CFX is the native gas and staking token. The protocol uses a Tree-Graph consensus design and supports general-purpose smart contracts. From an AAOIFI-aligned perspective, the protocol's economic activity is general-purpose scaling — productive infrastructure. Native staking introduces the standard gate we resolve by holding spot only. Jurisdictional considerations are not a Shariah question.
