In today’s economy, financial stability and ethical integrity are paramount. However, even with advances in financial technologies like crypto, stability remains elusive. Price swings, unpredictable markets, and regulatory concerns make it difficult for users to find a reliable digital asset, especially for the 800 global Muslims looking for alternative investments. Enter Deenar, a fully Shariah-compliant, gold-backed digital stablecoin uniquely designed to address these challenges and offer new stability and security. 

First Gold Token in the Cosmos Ecosystem

The launch of Deenar marks a significant milestone as the first gold-backed stablecoin within the Cosmos ecosystem. This development is a substantial step towards HAQQ’s goal of integrating real-world assets (RWA) into the Cosmos ecosystem of app chains, bringing tangible utility to the thriving Cosmos ecosystem. Deenar’s introduction bridges traditional gold assets with advanced blockchain technology, offering unparalleled value to users and projects within the Cosmos network.

What Deenar Brings to Cosmos

Deenar is a fully Shariah-compliant, gold-backed stablecoin that combines the enduring value of gold with the innovative capabilities of blockchain technology. It provides a stable, secure, and ethically aligned asset that can be utilized across various applications and blockchain projects. Deenar offers users a reliable store of value that mitigates the volatility commonly seen in the crypto market. It introduces a stable medium for transactions, collateral, and more for projects, enhancing overall ecosystem stability and utility.

Deen and Dinar: A Blend of Tradition and Modernity

Deen represents Muslims’ way of life, rooted in the values of unity, tolerance, and critical thinking. In Islamic civilization, the dinar has historically symbolized gold coins, a true store of value. We merged these concepts into the Deenar, a digital embodiment of Islamic values and financial prudence. 

 

Islam is the fastest-growing religion; despite this, over 800 million Muslims remain unbanked, especially in Asia and Africa. Many avoid traditional banks because these institutions often engage in activities deemed non-compliant with Islamic principles, such as riba, leaving millions needing access to essential financial services. Additionally, barriers such as poverty, low income, and lack of necessary documentation prevent many Muslims from opening bank accounts. Deenar is designed to cater to this growing demand, enabling Muslims to practice their deen while earning dinar without compromising their values. 

How Deenar Works

Deenar is issued by Fiduciary Standard, a regulated and licensed stablecoin issuer domiciled in Switzerland. It is a digital asset in which one token represents one gram of gold stored with a trusted custodian. Anyone who owns Deenar owns the underlying gold held under the custody of Brink’s. 

 

Deenar’s value tracks the real-time market price of gold. It is built following the ERC-20 protocol on the HAQQ Network blockchain, making it compatible with all HAQQ and Ethereum wallets that accept ERC-20 tokens. Thanks to a feature of the HAQQ Network, DEEN also has a Cosmos representation in the form of a Cosmos IBC token that can be transferred via IBC to any other Cosmos network. 

 

Deenar is rule-based and fully automated, based on non-critical roles distributed between interchangeable actors. All transactions operate according to the smart contract rules on the HAQQ blockchain, eliminating human error and ensuring the system operates as programmed. It is available 24/7 to facilitate settlement against various assets, meaning Deenar can be bought/sold at any time and transferred anywhere.

 

We have secured fatwa approval for the $DEEN token and have continued to work with our Shariah Scholars to ensure that all aspects of Deenar are Shariah-compliant. 

$DEEN Tokenomics

$DEEN has a total supply of 12,000 tokens. The price of 1 $DEEN is equivalent to 1 gram of physical Gold. Each $DEEN token represents 1 gram of SAM Precious Metal 999.9 purity gold held in a vault custodied by Brinks and can be fractionalized up to six decimal places (i.e., increments as small as 0.000001 gram).

DEEN tokens are created and destroyed by the Fiduciary Standard as needed. The minimum purchase amount on the Deenar platform is 1 DEEN, plus a creation fee depending on the size, posted on Deenar’s website.

To purchase DEEN, sell the underlying gold, or redeem for underlying gold, users must complete an identity verification process, agree to specific terms of service for DEEN, and meet applicable purchase or redemption minimums.

Holders of DEEN can redeem their tokens for the associated physical gold. They must hold the tokens corresponding to the volume of available bullion they want to buy back. It is possible to specify a line of ingots separately. Holders must order more than 1 DEEN to redeem their tokens for a physical gold bar, subject to fees depending on the size of their order posted on the website.

Specific gold bars will be associated with each on-chain address that holds DEEN tokens. At any time, DEEN holders can go to the Deenar website to retrieve the serial number and physical characteristics of their vaulted gold. All that is required is a HAQQ Network wallet address holding DEEN tokens. The distribution of tokens on ingots is automatic, and rebalancing occurs, meaning we also, at times, will change the ingot serial number to correspond to the tokens stored in your wallet.
