Verdict by Activity

How you can hold and use ANYONE

Buy & Hold

Halal

The project provides a decentralized privacy network with permissible utility, and no haram business activities or impure revenues were identified.

Native Staking

Optional
Halal

Users can lock/stake tokens to register a relay or delegate to earn staking rewards, which are funded by inflation emissions and permissible as payment for network security.

What the screen checked

Shariah Analysis

Infrastructure — where it runs

Passed

The asset runs on Ethereum, Base, and Peaq, which are neutral, general-purpose networks.

Application — what it does

Passed

The project provides a decentralized privacy routing network (DePIN) with no identified exposure to interest, gambling, or haram industries.

Asset — what you own

Passed

The token is used for network access, incentivizing relay operators, and staking for economic security. Staking rewards are funded by inflation emissions, which is permissible as payment for a validation service.

Property Status (Māl)

Passed

The token has genuine lawful utility, exists on-chain with ascertainable supply, and is recognized as wealth. A single wallet key can freeze a chosen holder's tokens via the setBots function, and the contract is immutable with fixed or rule-based minting.

Revenue Purity

Passed

No revenue currently reaches token holders, as the planned revenue-sharing mechanism is not yet live, and no haram revenue sources were identified.

Legitimacy & Security

whitepaper

Passed

The project provides clear documentation and tokenomics.

project audits

Caution

While security information is found, the research does not name a completed independent audit by a specific auditor.

social presence

Passed

The project has an active network and community presence.

Team & Ecosystem

Passed

The team's identity has been confirmed by the research.

Detailed Shariah Report

Overview

The Anyone Protocol is a decentralized physical infrastructure network (DePIN) designed to let any application easily route its traffic through a decentralized privacy network. Its native token, $ANYONE, functions as a native protocol position used to facilitate network access, incentivize relay operators, and provide economic security through staking.

Why This Verdict

To determine the Shariah compliance of $ANYONE, we apply a three-layer screen evaluating its infrastructure, application, and asset status. First, the infrastructure layer passes because the token operates on Ethereum, Base, and Peaq, which are neutral, general-purpose networks. Second, the application layer passes because the Anyone Protocol provides a lawful decentralized privacy routing service without engaging in interest-based lending, gambling, or prohibited industries. Third, the asset qualification layer passes because $ANYONE qualifies as recognized digital property (Mal); it is an exclusive, protocol-recognized right of control that exists on-chain, has an ascertainable supply, carries genuine lawful utility, and is treated as wealth by a body of people. Therefore, simply buying and holding the $ANYONE token is Halal. Beyond holding, the protocol offers an opt-in Native Staking mechanism, which is also Halal. Users can lock their tokens to register a relay or delegate to a relay family, earning rewards funded by inflation emissions. This is permissible as it represents fair compensation for providing active network security and validation services.

Permissible Aspects
  • The core business activity—providing a decentralized privacy routing network—is a permissible utility.
  • The token serves a genuine lawful purpose for network access and incentivizing relay operators.
  • Native staking rewards are funded by protocol inflation emissions, which is a permissible form of compensation for securing the network.
  • Planned future revenue from 'premium circuits' (high-throughput bandwidth) represents a permissible fee-for-service model.
Points of Caution
  • !The project's smart contract contains a 'setBots' function, which allows a single centralized wallet key to freeze or block a chosen holder's tokens.
  • !The composition of the project's treasury is not publicly disclosed, meaning it is unknown if the protocol holds interest-bearing assets, though this does not affect the ruling on holding the token itself.
  • !While security information is available, the research does not name a completed independent audit by a specific recognized auditor.
Purification Note

Not applicable. No impure revenue streams were identified, and currently, no protocol revenue reaches token holders. Simply holding or staking the token does not require purification.

Bottom Line

The $ANYONE token is permissible to buy, hold, and stake, as the underlying protocol provides a lawful privacy routing service without engaging in prohibited financial activities. The opt-in native staking mechanism is also permissible, as it compensates users for securing the network using newly minted tokens rather than interest. As always, final religious authority rests with a qualified Shariah scholar.

How this verdict was reached

This is not an opinion issued by ShariaQuant. It is the output of a documented screening methodology applied to researched facts about ANyONe Protocol (ANYONE), and every row above states the specific evidence that drove it — so the reasoning can be examined rather than taken on trust.

The framework screens three layers — the infrastructure an asset runs on, the application it serves, and the asset itself — and separately tests whether the token qualifies as recognised property (māl): that it presently exists, has an ascertainable supply, can be held and transferred, and carries a genuine lawful use. A failure at any single layer fails the asset.

Revenue-purity thresholds follow the AAOIFI screening standard: non-compliant income below 5% of revenue is tolerated and purified, while 5% or above fails the screen.

The framework follows published scholarship rather than in-house opinion. Treating a digital asset as a right (ḥaqq) that becomes recognised property (māl) only on stated conditions follows “Is Crypto Halal? The Definitive Shariah Guide to Crypto and Digital Assets” by Mufti Faraz Adam (Amanah Advisors, 2026), which reproduces the conditions identified by Mufti Taqi Usmani. Financial thresholds follow the AAOIFI screening standard. The rulings we track are collected in the fatwa library.

AAOIFI has not reviewed, approved or endorsed this report or ShariaQuant, and no scholar named in our methodology has reviewed this individual verdict. This is analysis, not a fatwa — final religious authority rests with a qualified scholar.

This is an AI research platform and the screening engine is under active development. We keep improving how facts are gathered and checked, and a report is re-issued in full when an asset is screened again rather than amended in place.
