In the crypto world, you have two popular ways to trade

✅ **Spot Trading**:

You buy the currency and actually own it. If the price increases, you sell and profit.

⛪ *From a Sharia perspective?* It is permissible provided that the transaction is immediate (actual possession) and there is no usury.

⚠️ **Futures Contracts**:

Here you do not own the currency; you are betting on the price movement, and you can also use leverage (which means borrowing to double the trade).

🛑 *From a Sharia perspective?* Most scholars have said it is forbidden, as it involves uncertainty, gambling, and usury (especially due to borrowing and fees).

📌 **Advice if you care about what is halal**:

Choose spot trading, and keep your trades free of interest and leverage.

💡 Understand the market well, and invest with your mind before your money… and your religion before everything.
