Para que la cuña apriete. Castigos y recompensas a menores como parte de las prácticas educativas. Querétaro (1950-1960)
Authors: Silva Acosta José Alfredo , Solís Hernández Oliva
Published: March 2024

El objetivo del trabajo es documentar la existencia de un modelo de castigo-recompensa en las prácticas educativas hacia menores, en Querétaro, región centro-bajío del país, durante la década de 1950; considerada una etapa de transición a la Modernidad, en un entorno sociocultural dominado por las instituciones conservadoras. Las investigaciones previas muestran la existencia de castigos físicos y psicológicos en las aulas, aceptados por la sociedad, donde las y los menores no lo consideraban como violencia, sino quehacer docente. Los trabajos académicos se centraron en exhibir la crueldad de los castigos físicos y el papel de la docencia al ejercer relaciones de poder y dominación, pero sin prestar atención a las infancias ni a las dinámicas en las que, el correctivo es parte de una cotidianeidad en la que también abundan estímulos basados en la recompensa. Para dar muestra de ello, se desarrolló una investigación bajo el enfoque de la Historia Social y Cultural, usando fuentes oficiales y referencias como: fotografías, anuncios publicitarios, historietas o novelas, a través de las cuales se evidencian algunos de los estímulos y satisfactores que las familias, muchas veces mediante un fuerte sacrificio económico, daban a sus hijas e hijos para poder ir a la escuela. Entre las conclusiones destaca que, lo que antes se consideraban prácticas comunes, al paso del tiempo ya no lo son; y lo que era impensable, con el progresismo, ahora es la norma. El rechazo actual de la violencia física y psicológica entre y hacia la población escolar, no es la excepción.
Cristianas que saben latín: La Unión Femenina Católica Mexicana. Un estudio de caso a través de su primer libro de actas de Asamblea en Coatepec, Veracruz (1938-1941)
Authors: García García Ana María del Socorro , Gutiérrez Hernández Norma , Ruíz Valdivia María Paola
Published: March 2024

Este trabajo centra su atención en el análisis del primer libro de actas de asambleas de la Unión Femenina Católica Mexicana (UFCM) -fundada el 25 de abril de 1938-, que fue localizado en el archivo parroquial de San Jerónimo, de la ciudad de Coatepec, Veracruz. Dicho libro contiene un total de 76 actas: la primera corresponde a la fundación de esta red y la última a la asamblea del 17 de octubre de 1941. A través de ellas es posible conocer a detalle, las labores de beneficencia que se efectuaron gracias al esfuerzo de las mujeres que la conformaron, quienes mostraron gran preocupación por la educación desde una óptica cristiana, manifestada en la ayuda a los pobres, enfermos y a la formación de los seminaristas; al tiempo que buscaron consolidar una estrategia económica para ejecutar las más diversas actividades de su organización. Paralelamente, encontramos que la UFCM contó con un sistema de regulación eficiente que permitió un manejo competente de los asuntos previamente mencionados. El trabajo constante de este grupo marcó un antes y un después en la vida de las mujeres que formaron parte de ella y, sobre todo, en la de los ciudadanos que impactaron.

Criterios de evaluación de revistas científicas
Authors: Merlo Vega José Antonio , Montoya-Roncancio Valeria
Published: March 2024

La evaluación de revistas científicas se realiza para disponer de indicadores que permitan clasificar las publicaciones en función de su calidad. Los índices de revistas agrupados por su calidad pueden encontrarse en diferentes plataformas, que basan sus evaluaciones en criterios e indicadores de diferentes tipos. Las plataformas de revistas se estructuran a partir de su finalidad, estableciendo tres categorías: plataformas de impacto (finalidad bibliométrica), plataformas de contenidos (finalidad bibliográfica) y plataformas de calidad (finalidad cualitativa). El estudio define cada tipo de plataforma de revista y ofrece ejemplos de cada grupo. El objetivo principal de esta investigación es caracterizar los modelos de evaluación de revistas científicas y establecer indicadores que se puedan aplicar en cualquier tipo de plataforma o servicio de revistas científicas. El estudio establece indicadores cuantitativos y cualitativos que se agrupan en tres bloques de criterios. El objetivo específico es disponer de datos sobre el uso de indicadores en las clasificaciones de publicaciones producidas por las diferentes plataformas de revistas. Se emplea una metodología en la que se han establecido una serie de quince indicadores, organizados a partir de tres criterios: editoriales, bibliométricos y divulgativos. Se han seleccionado tres plataformas representativas de cada tipo y se ha examinado el grado de cumplimiento o presencia de los quince indicadores en las nueve plataformas seleccionadas: impacto (Scopus, Web of Science, Google Scholar), contenidos (Redalyc, Dialnet, Redib) y calidad (MIAR, Latindex, CARHUS). El estudio concluye que los indicadores de tipo editorial son los que están más presentes en las plataformas de revistas científicas, mientras que los indicadores divulgativos apenas son contemplados en las mismas.
Así que quieren crear una nueva revista científica, ¿para qué?
Authors: Machin-Mastromatteo Juan D.
Published: March 2024

En esta primera entrega de la sección Escuela de editores discutimos distintas razones que pueden motivar el lanzamiento de una nueva revista científica. Partimos del cuestionamiento ¿para qué queremos fundar una nueva revista? En su respuesta empezamos a encontrar que puede haber razones correctas y erróneas para crear una nueva revista y que, de tratarse de una revista institucional podríamos encontrar que el poco conocimiento que tienen algunos de lo que es y lo que implica una revista científica puede jugar en contra de tal proyecto, posiblemente condenándolo al fracaso. Adicionalmente, presentamos los resultados de una revisión bibliográfica, principalmente de fuentes que tratan sobre la publicación de 28 revistas específicas, que nos permiten discutir las distintas cuestiones que dificultan crear revistas, las razones por las cuales podemos crear una nueva revista científica y, a manera de conclusión, los primeros pasos para lanzar una nueva revista.

Criterios para clasificar los tipos de bibliotecas
Authors: Esquivel Carreón Guadalupe
Published: March 2024

La inexactitud para delimitar lo público de una biblioteca ha incidido en la definición de los tipos de bibliotecas y se ha complicado con la aparición de los conceptos de bibliotecas comunitarias y populares. El propósito es explorar si es posible clarificar las fronteras que las definen. La investigación es no experimental de tipo exploratoria, para enmarcar los criterios identificados en la literatura se utilizan las tres dimensiones de la organización social de acceso, agencia e interés propuestas por Benn y Gaus para distinguir las actividades y prácticas que se clasifican como públicas y privadas. Se logró una delimitación robusta de las fronteras que definen a cada biblioteca a partir de 26 criterios, aunque se reconoce su complejidad porque existen varios criterios que se entretejen por lo que es necesario un análisis más profundo. Las tres dimensiones fueron útiles para organizar criterios, establecer el grado de lo público de una biblioteca y definirlas.

Bereavement support after a drug-related death: Professional perspectives
Authors: Reime Monika , Møgster Birthe , Halvorsen Kjersti
Published: March 2024

After a drug-related death, the bereaved are at risk of severe social and health consequences, but their need for professional support in their bereavement processes often falls under the radar. The bereaved themselves ask for continued support, and the research shows significant symptoms of prolonged grief for years after the loss. This article explores professionals’ perspectives on providing bereavement support to bereaved clients after a drug-related death. The article builds on focus group interviews with professionals from different health and welfare services in Norway who are likely to encounter the bereaved in their client work. A total of six focus group interviews were conducted, involving 29 professionals from services such as mental health and drug services, residential care, low threshold services, and medical services. The results show that bereavement support for the drug-death bereaved is perceived as demanding relational work that is not part of their primary work tasks. The work is highly individualised because formal organisational structures are lacking, which can impair bereaved peoples’ access to bereavement support. The lack of training, knowledge, and clear responsibility may lead to professionals lacking confidence and withdrawing from support initiatives in order to avoid stress and burnout.

Authors: Lv Chuqiao
Published: March 2024

In the process of modernization, subcultural phenomena within youth groups have gradually flourished, and relevant theoretical research has made substantial progress. However, the phenomenon of "Da Zi Culture" within youth groups is a newly emerging, complex subculture influenced by various factors, with scarce empirical research within the academic community. Therefore, this study aims to explore the core topic of the formation mechanism of the youth subculture "Da Zi Culture," investigating the motivation for participation, influencing factors, and the satisfaction gained by the youth engaged in "finding a partner." The research results indicate that the formation mechanism of the youth subculture "Da Zi Culture" primarily involves four factors: functional domain needs, emotional values, social values, and internal and external driving forces. Based on this, the study constructs a theoretical model of the formation mechanism of "Da Zi Culture."

Authors: Ma Yijia
Published: March 2024

Motivation is a key factor in education, and the factors that drive it influence its direction. Therefore, understanding the determinants of motivation plays a crucial role in the educational process. Understanding the factors that affect the motivation of learning can understand the behavior and needs of students, to provide students with more effective guidance. Factors affecting learning motivations can be divided into external factors and internal factors. The external factors include schools and families, and internal factors include interest and satisfaction. Based on Maslow's demand level theory, and considering the factors that affect learning motivation, the following suggestions are put forward: First, create a safe and stable campus environment to ensure students' safety. Secondly, to cultivate students' sense of collective belonging, parents need to maintain good family relationships. Furthermore, respecting and encouraging students to bravely express their ideas helps to maintain their interest in learning. Finally, guide students to further realize personal value through learning, and get satisfaction from it, thereby improving their interest in learning.

Flow and immersion are essential criteria for evaluating a game's design quality. In recent years, with the development of society, the design and thinking of games have changed in line with the trend of The Times. People are increasingly seeking ways to release pressure from work and life pressure. Besides battle games creating excitement, cozy games have received more attention from the public. This thesis analyzes the relevant literature to summarize the internal relationship between flow, immersion, and cozy game design and takes the two cozy games, Gris and Journey, as examples. The visuals, the game soundtrack, and the narratology of the two games will be analyzed to prove the excellence of their design and how to make players get a good flow immersion experience. This thesis finds that cozy games, compared to extreme games, prioritize enhancing players' spiritual well-being, and most of these games pay more attention to exploring social issues and the beauty of life. Finally, this thesis will refer to game addiction and how game designers will rethink game design in the future.

Authors: Yan Bohan
Published: March 2024

Family education has a significant impact on children's mental health, social skills, self-esteem, and even their future growth. Research indicates that variations in family education styles and cultural backgrounds also have distinct effects on how children's mental health develops. The effects of family education vary among cultures. Diverse family education philosophies have varying effects on kids' emotional health, so parents should implement focused teaching techniques to help kids feel good about their families. Using home-school collaboration can assist parents in putting effective home education into practice. Other crucial components of family education include timely modifications to educational models and constructive parent-child interaction. Parents can create more effective lesson plans, regularly reflect on their teaching strategies, continue to learn about parenting, communicate with other parents, and support the healthy development of their children by enhancing the family environment. By doing these things, parents will also be better able to participate in and have a more thorough understanding of the healthy development of their children.
Realistic Dilemma and Path Optimization of Online Personal Information Protection
Authors: Wang Yanshu
Published: March 2024

A virtual area made by computers is called cyberspace. People there lead non-traditional lifestyles. It has evolved into a different manner of living from the physical realms of land, sea, air, and space. Lifestyle changes have also led to the emergence of some network security problems, including invasion of privacy, identity theft, financial fraud, and more. In today's world, cybersecurity is not only a trendy topic but also a crucial issue to protect the interests of cyberspace's development, security, and sovereignty. The "Personal Information Protection Law of the People's Republic of China" offers numerous highlights in terms of fundamental principles, scope of adjustment, and protection models, and offers an institutional response to the main challenges faced by personal information protection in the big data era. To strike a balance between information protection and information freedom, the Internet industry must continue to bolster industry self-discipline, raise public awareness of the right to protect personal privacy information and enhance public understanding of the legal protection of personal privacy information rights.

Risk Factors Associated with Cardiovascular Disorders
Authors: Hussain Muhammad Mudasser , Rafi Uzma , Imran Adnan , Rehman Mujeeb Ur , Abbas Syed Khurram
Published: March 2024

Cardiovascular diseases (CVDs) constitute the primary cause of mortality worldwide. 32% of all fatalities globally in 2019 were attributed to CVDs, with an estimated 17.9 million deaths. Heart attacks and strokes were the significant cause of 85% of these fatalities. More than 75% of fatalities from CVD occur in low- and middle-income nations. In 2019, non-communicable illnesses accounted for 17 million premature fatalities (deaths under 70 years of age) of which 38% were attributable to CVDs. An increased risk of acquiring high blood pressure (hypertension), high cholesterol, and Type 2 diabetes can also be attributed to a family history of these disorders. These conditions can also raise an individual's risk of cardiovascular disease. By addressing behavioral risk factors such as tobacco use, bad food and obesity, physical inactivity, and problematic alcohol consumption, most cardiovascular illnesses may be averted. Early detection of cardiovascular illness is crucial for the commencement of medication and counseling-based therapy.
BAKU STATE UNIVERSITY DURING THE HARD TRIALS OF 1920S-1930S: CRITICAL ADMINISTRATIVE CHALLENGES AND RED TERROR
Authors: Amrahov Ziyad
Published: March 2024

This paper focuses on the higher education reforms carried out in the Soviet Azerbaijan in the 1920s and 1930s and their impact on Baku State University. Beginning from the first years of the Soviet rule, the People’s Commissariat of Education in the Azerbaijan SSR concentrated the authority to lead all cultural and educational affairs. The main areas of the spiritual life of the newly established Soviet republic, its education, science, literature, and art, were actually brought under the control of the party and state leadership. The conducted research shows that by putting an end to the existence of the Azerbaijan Democratic Republic with the April invasion of 1920 and establishing their regime in Azerbaijan, the new authorities radically changed the conditions for the operation of Baku State University. Party and state bodies of the Azerbaijan SSR initiated immediate reorganization of the university's work in accordance with the new ideological and political realities. The main directions of education and scientific activity at the university began to be restructured on the principles of class and party affiliation. All these issues, related to the development of the university, are considered on the basis of archival documents in order to reveal the historical realities of the period under study.

Published: March 2024

The process and viability of fertility are put at risk by diabetes mellitus, which also causes hyperglycemia. Males who experience hypogonadism or anxiety may find it difficult to feel sexually exhilarated. This study included 79 healthy controls and 158 male patients with diabetes mellitus (85) with type 1 (T1DM) and (73) with type 2 (T2DM), all of whom were between the ages of 20 and 49. Levels of reproductive hormones (follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH), luteinizing hormone (LH), testosterone (T)), and prolactin (PRL) were all measured. The results showed notable variations in the levels of these hormones among patients of different ages. PRL levels were significantly elevated (p 0.05) in T1DM compared to T2DM in the age groups 20-29 and 30-39. Additionally, FSH and LH levels in all age groups were greatly increased in T1DM compared to T2DM, but T hormone levels were dramatically reduced in T1DM patients compared to T2DM patients. In contrast to T hormone, which showed a substantial reduction in patients with a disease duration of 11–15 years compared to a disease duration of 1–5 years, reproductive hormone levels and PRL in T1DM and T2DM patients did not differ significantly based on disease duration. Therefore, high levels of PRL hormone could increase the effect of DM, which in turn can affect the reproductive hormones due to age-related changes in hormone levels between (T1DM and T2DM) and a drop in T levels over the course of the disease.

Ayurveda have a lot of brain booster. Suvaranaprashana is outone of them. Suvarnaprashana claimed to have Medhya effect Administration of treated gold in children is an exclusive preparation stated in Ayurveda as "Suvarnaprashana" by Acharya Kashyapa thousand years ago. He described unmistakably the administration of Suvarna (gold) in children for the welfares of improving intelligence (brainpower), digestion and metabolism, somatic strength, insusceptibility, skin texture, potency (fertility), and life span. Ayurveda mentions only sanitized and treated form of gold for oral administration. According to Ayurveda, poor memory caused due to inactivity of Kapha or aggravation of Vata dosha. Small doses of Suvarna Bhasma when taken for the prescribed duration are known to increase the memory power because of its Vata balancing and Rasayana (rejuvenating) properties.

INCORPORAÇÃO DE RESÍDUOS DE EVA PARA PRODUÇÃO DE CONCRETOS LEVES
Authors: De Souza Lara Neves Medeiros , Freitas Mateus de Souza
Published: March 2024

O progresso dos setores da economia e da indústria observado em diversas regiões do País contribuiu para um aumento na produção de resíduos. Desde então, a grande quantidade de produtos gerados e a destinação adequada para eles tornou-se uma importante questão mundial. As empresas se viram com necessidade de adaptar a produção para manter um equilíbrio satisfatório entre seus lucros e as exigências ambientais. A construção civil foi um alvo potencial nessa mudança, analisando alternativas que contribuíssem para a preservação do meio ambiente. Um exemplo dessa adaptação é a utilização de resíduos na produção de concretos. A utilização de resíduos como agregados leves em concretos possibilita a produção dos chamados concretos leves. Estes compostos apresentam diversas características particulares, como a baixa massa específica ao substituir a brita por um agregado mais leve, influenciando diretamente no peso da estrutura, promovendo a diminuição das seções transversais e consequente alterações nos custos. Dentre esses possíveis materiais para utilização, o uso de resíduos de EVA provenientes da indústria calçadista do País como agregados leves em concretos tem ganhado espaço, devido, principalmente, a geração de uma grande quantidade de material sem destinação apropriada.

La formación del directivo empresarial como variable estratégica de cambio
Authors: Parra Luna Francisco
Published: March 2024

Desde una perspectiva crítica, se pretende señalar que relevantes teorías organizacionales no han sido todavía incorporadas a los currícula básicos de los directivos empresariales, así como la pervivencia de la tradicional desconexión universidad-empresa. Entre los enfoques teóricos que formarían parte de esta "distancia conceptual" se encontrarían el concepto axiológico de empresa (productora, exclusivante, de sistemas de valores) ; el cálculo de la eficiencia empresarial (o relación entre los valores producidos y medios empleados) ; el concepto de entorno al que debe adaptarse la empresa (análisis de los cambios sociales, económicos, culturales y otros) ; la concepción de la empresa como "sistema suma no cero" (lo que potenciaria o daría lugar a procesos de negociacion sinérgicos versus homeostáticos) y, por último, el diseño de un concepto de formación como correlato del plan estratégico de la empresa en respuesta a los desarios del entorno. Se apunta finalmente un proceso formativo al nivel global de empresa, que consta de ocho fases, llamado "plan estratégico-participativo de formación".
ETHICS AND MORALITY IN MODERN BUSINESS: IMPORTANCE AND HISTORICAL ASPECT
Authors: Gunin Andrey
Published: March 2024

In this article the author reflects on the application of ethical principles in the business environment, starting with the definition of business ethics and considering the approaches of various schools of thought to the presence of an ethical component in the entrepreneurial activity. The author provides a wide range of arguments against the view that the goals of business should be primarily growth and profit and that ethical principles of business are secondary or irrelevant. The article provides a historical overview of the development of philosophical and ethical thought in this regard and, in particular, briefly formulates the key views on this topic of the ancient Greek philosophers Plato and Aristotle, the medieval philosopher Thomas Aquinas, the mercantilists of the 17th century, Bernard Mandeville and Adam Smith in the 18th century, John Keynes in the first half of the 20th century, as well as some modern authors and figures. In conclusion, the author states a strong increase in the role of moral assessments and ethical formulations in business at the present time and formulates the idea that the ethical side of a company’s activities is beginning to approach the classical factors of production in importance. However, the author questions the sincerity of thinking about business ethics in modern society.
ETHICS AND MORALITY IN MODERN BUSINESS: PURPOSE OF THE BUSINESS AND ITS RESPONSIBILITY
Authors: Gunin Andrey
Published: March 2024

In the second article of his series, the author examines the profound changes that have occurred over the past few decades in what business is and the evolution of views on what the purpose of companies is. If in the past it was generally accepted that a company should pursue the interests of its shareholders, now the dominant concept has become the concept of stakeholders, which include, in addition to shareholders, everyone who comes into contact with the results of the organization's activities. The author cites as an example one of the first attempts to implement such an approach, which was undertaken more than 100 years ago by Henry Ford, and outlines the consequences of the subsequent court decision for law enforcement practice in the United States. The author raises a number of pressing questions that, in his opinion, remain contradictory and unresolved in the application of the stakeholder concept in practice, despite its practically uncontested general acceptance. The article also discusses the practical implementation of the stakeholder concept in the form of formulating sustainable development policies at national and intergovernmental levels, including the so-called ESG principles, analyzing each component of these principles (ecology, social responsibility and corporate governance), and also provides positive and negative examples of such implementation by specific companies. The author concludes that despite the ubiquity of statements and declarations about business responsibility, they very often do not correspond to reality. Despite this, the author believes that the implementation of ESG principles remains an important priority for companies, including because compliance with ESG in modern conditions becomes necessary when receiving corporate financing.

Among these formulas, the GEN-DM modified formula (GEN-DM MF) has been widely used for several years. However, the glycemic index (GI) of GEN-DM MF has not yet been determined.
Objective: This study aimed to assess the GI of GEN-DM MF.
Methods: Ten healthy adults with normal oral glucose tolerance were included. The plasma glucose was measured at 0 (baseline), 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after consuming 50 grams of glucose solution. On the subsequent two days, plasma glucose measurement was repeated using 84.46 g of GEN-DM MF containing 50 g of carbohydrates. The GI was calculated by dividing the incremental area under the glucose response curve (iAUC) of GEN-DM MF by the area under the glucose response curve of the glucose solution, then multiplying the result by 100. The glycemic load (GL) was calculated by multiplying the GI by the carbohydrate amount in one serving of GEN-DM MF (40 g) /100.
Results: Six healthy men and four women with an average age of 35.80 ± 6.89 years, ranging from 28 to 44, were included in the study. The plasma glucose levels at 30 and 60 minutes following the GEN-DM MF were significantly lower than the corresponding glucose levels with p= 0.002 and 0.013, respectively. The GI and GL of GEN-DM MF were 37.75 and 9, respectively, which was classified as low GI and low GL.
Conclusion: GEN-DM MF is classified as a low GI and low GL food, which could significantly lower plasma glucose levels among healthy individuals.

Village Food Safety Cadres must possess a high level of proficiency in the field of food safety. The purpose of this study was to assess the efficacy of Village Food Safety Cadres in the Safe Food Village Program in Gorontalo, with the aim of promoting the engagement of these cadres. This was done to facilitate the formulation of recommendations aimed at optimizing the performance of cadres in future endeavors.
This study uses qualitative descriptive methods. The study findings indicate that there are multiple barriers to establishing active village food safety cadres in Gorontalo. These obstacles include a lack of experience, skills, and knowledge among local food safety cadres, as well as their own self-concept. Additionally, the appointment of cadres is not voluntary but rather done by the Village Head, which hinders the formation of a strong self-concept as a cadre. Furthermore, socio-cultural characteristics, particularly language issues, pose challenges as some cadres are highly proficient in local languages, making it difficult to comprehend materials in Indonesian. The communities that needed to be supported were composed of individuals with varied educational backgrounds, thus requiring the adaptation of counselling methods to cater to their specific needs.
To effectively train and meet the necessary qualifications of active cadres, it is essential to create media platforms for spreading food safety information that incorporate local knowledge. This can be achieved by utilizing local languages that cater to the different demographic characteristics of the communities being nurtured. Furthermore, it is imperative to make dedicated endeavors to enhance the knowledge of cadres on food safety, thereby fostering a positive self-perception.

Background: The treatment gap for people with common mental disorders is large, estimated to be 75–95% in India; the reasons are multi-factorial. It was found that 89% of the primary health centers are not providing mental health care services. Technology like the electronic-mental Health Global Action Program-Intervention Guide (e-mhGAP-IG) is necessary to fill this gap, which in turn helps to attain one of the aims of National Mental Health Program-1982.  Hence, the study is planned to understand the feasibility and adaptability of WHO’s e-mhGAP-IG by the primary health workers in the delivery of mental health care for child and adolescent mental/behavioral disorders (CMH) and substance use disorders (SUB).
Methods: It is an open-label randomized control trial planned to conduct at primary healthcare centers, Chittoor district. Primary health care staff working at PHCs/Sub-centers having one year experience, and being able to handle smart phones will be included in the study. Data will be collected using a self-structured case report form (CRF) and analyzed by applying per protocol analysis using JAMOVI software. The cost of intervention and the impact on disease outcomes will be taken concurrently to estimate the cost-effectiveness of the intervention.

Tinjauan Pemikiran Cendekiawan Islam Kontemporer Mengenai Bitcoin dalam Konteks Ḥīfẓū Al-Māl; Implikasi dan Perspektif
Authors: Sholihah Sitti , Muhammad Yazid
Published: March 2024

Penggunaan Bitcoin dan mata uang kripto dalam perspektif Islam menimbulkan perdebatan kompleks. Pandangan beragam terkait fungsi uang sebagai perantara transaksi dalam Islam. Beberapa melihatnya sebagai alat yang harus memfasilitasi perdagangan, bukan untuk spekulasi. Pendapat ini tak selalu diterima di dunia Islam. Sejumlah lembaga fatwa dan otoritas agama di berbagai negara berpendapat berbeda mengenai legalitas Bitcoin. Beberapa melarangnya karena dianggap berisiko tinggi dan tak memiliki nilai intrinsik stabil. Namun, ada juga yang membolehkannya jika sesuai syariah dan bebas dari spekulasi. Pentingnya menjaga kekayaan (ḥīfْẓū al-māl) menjadi perhatian serius. Volatilitas nilai Bitcoin yang tinggi dapat mengancam kekayaan individu. Status hukum Bitcoin di beberapa negara dan potensi risiko penipuan dan kejahatan siber juga jadi pertimbangan. Pandangan terhadap mata uang kripto bisa beragam di kalangan ulama dan lembaga fatwa, dengan beberapa melihatnya sebagai inovasi yang sesuai dengan perkembangan zaman.
