Is Chia (XCH) halal or haram?
Not screened yet
We have not run our Shariah screening on Chia yet, so we are not giving a ruling on this page. What is below is what we have gathered and checked ourselves, without any AI: where the coin lives, its supply, what its own blockchain says about who can freeze or create coins, and the project's own documents.
What it is
Founded by Bram Cohen, the inventor of the BitTorrent network, Chia Network is building a better blockchain and smart transaction platform which is more decentralized, more efficient, and more secure.
The basics
- Where it lives
- native coin of its own chain
- Circulating supply
- 19,002,770 XCH
- Total supply
- 35,377,744 XCH
- Category
- Smart Contract Platform, Layer 1 (L1), DePIN
Who controls the coins
Native coin of its own chain: there is no token contract to carry a freeze, pause or mint function.
Whether anyone can freeze a holder's balance, or create new coins, is part of our screening. This much is read straight from the blockchain, so it is already established before any screening runs.
