What does Islam say about cryptocurrency and digital investments?

Existing Quran Wisdom answer. No named author or scholarly review is recorded here. Check references and seek qualified advice for a personal ruling.

Cryptocurrency can be halal if it meets Islamic finance principles: no interest (riba), no gambling (maysir), no extreme uncertainty (gharar), and real utility. Bitcoin and Ethereum used as digital assets may be permissible, but speculative trading, interest-bearing platforms, and scam coins are haram. Consult a knowledgeable Islamic scholar for specific investments.
