Is BNB halal? Can I do spot trading on Binance and is that profit permissible?

Question context
A community member asked whether the Haram classification of BNB prevents them from buying and selling BNB through spot trading only, without using any other Binance financial products.
CoinStudy's answer
Research opinion from the CoinStudy Sharia team. Not a fatwa.
CoinStudy classifies BNB as Haram at the structural level because the Binance ecosystem includes interest-based earn programs, perpetual futures, and lending products. Our Shariah Board Chairman ruled: "If a person only does spot trading and generates their own profit from the coin, that profit is Halal for that person. Despite it being Halal for the individual, a Halal ruling cannot be placed on this exchange." Spot trading BNB only is permissible for that individual. All other Binance activities including earn programs, lending, and perpetual futures are Haram.
