All that was needed was a report from an Indonesian microfinance organization that Bitcoin is halal to boost its price by more than $ 1,000 in a matter of hours.

"Bitcoin is allowed in principle because it is considered to reflect the market price in international trade and is accepted as a means of payment for many traders," the authors of this report say.

It was enough for the price of virtual currency to take more than $ 1,000 in just a few hours after the sharing of this information on social networks and its dissemination by the media. This Wednesday at noon, the price of Bitcoin was traded at 8,118 dollars, after falling a few weeks ago to 6,700 dollars.

In January, the great Egyptian mufti Shawki Allam had banned the use of Bitcoin because this currency, according to him, would not only facilitate the financing of terrorism but it is also comparable to gambling, strictly prohibited by Islam.

In Morocco, the central bank considers that Bictoin is not a currency. "Economically a currency meets three functions, it is a means of payment, it is a stock of securities and it has an instrument of savings," said Abdellatif Jouahri, Wali of Bank Al Maghrib, for whom "c ' is a highly speculative instrument. The best evidence is hackers who are attacking implausibly platforms with significant losses.
