Zakat On Crypto Asset
Digital assets are not any different from other liquid assets for the treatment of zakat. Please see my responses in the thread below: Discussion 46914
I’m not sure what rationale you might be looking for other than what’s already self-evident. Cryptocurrency is by definition a currency, hence a liquid asset. Since I might not have all the required information in this regard, if you have a reason to believe it should be considered differently, please share your argument and I’ll be happy to re-assess my understanding. Also for zakat purposes, whether the asset is liquid or not might be irrelevant.
