| Project | API3 is a blockchain project that aims to bridge the gap between smart contracts and real-world data by providing a decentralized API (Application Programming Interface) solution. The project aims to create a more secure and reliable infrastructure for smart contracts by allowing them to access off-chain data sources in a decentralized way. The project does not have any problem in terms of Shariah rulings. All the features and the objectives of the project are neutral. | Passed |
| Financials | The token is not backed by any equity, thus there is no financial screening on this token. | Passed |
| Token | API3 token is a key component of the API3 ecosystem, serving as a means of governance, staking, payment, and discount within the network. The API3 token plays an important role in ensuring the security, reliability, and scalability of the Airnode network, while also providing benefits and incentives for participants in the ecosystem. Overall all the utilities of the token are in line with Shariah rulings. | Passed |
| Staking Method | API3 uses a Proof of Stake (PoS) consensus mechanism for staking. This means that API3 token holders can participate in staking by locking up their tokens as collateral, which allows them to earn staking rewards and participate in the governance process. In the API3 PoS system, stakers are chosen to validate transactions and secure the network based on the amount of API3 tokens they have staked. The more API3 tokens a staker has staked, the higher their chances of being chosen to validate transactions and earn staking rewards. Staking in API3 is permissible and follows the same rules as other Proof of Stake processes in other networks. | Passed |
