What it is
A stablecoin aiming to hold a 1:1 value with the US dollar.
Why this assessment
Permissibility hinges on the nature of its reserves. Because those reserves are reported to include interest-bearing instruments, many scholars raise a riba concern, while others permit holding it purely as a digital dollar.
