The innovative new account makes cryptocurrency trading more accessible to Islamic communities and ensures that all activity aligns with Shariah law.
The Islamic Account was created in collaboration with ZICO Shariah Advisory Services Sdn. Bhd. (ZICO Shariah) and CryptoHalal, guaranteeing that all Bybit services align with strict Islamic finance standards.
