ABSTRACT This study expands upon existing research by shedding light on the challenges and opportunities facing participants in peer-to-peer wireless signal-sharing initiatives. The study relies on resource mobilization theory to gain a deeper understanding of why members of community mesh networks in the United States join the movement and how they sustain it. The researcher conducted semi-structured interviews with the founders of 12 unique U.S. networks. The projects examined illustrate the desire for alternatives to traditional ISPs, as well as deep commitments to digital inclusion and local ownership. Informants reported feeling personally invested in the future of their projects because they contribute technical support and other forms of labour. However, the deployment of mesh technology creates a unique set of legal and policy issues.RÉSUMÉ Cette étude va au-delà de la recherche existante en jetant de la lumière sur les occasions et les défis soulevés par les initiatives de partage de signaux poste à poste sans fil. L’étude se fonde sur la théorie de la mobilisation des ressources afin de comprendre plus en profondeur pourquoi les membres de réseaux maillés collectifs aux États-Unis se sont joints à ces réseaux et comment ils les supportent. La chercheuse a mené des interviews semistructurées avec les fondateurs de douze réseaux américains différents. Les projets examinés révèlent un désir pour des alternatives aux fournisseurs Internet traditionnels, ainsi qu’un engagement profond envers l’inclusion numérique et la propriété locale. Les personnes interrogées ont dit en effet qu’elles se sentaient personnellement investies dans l’avenir de leurs projets parce qu’elles y contribuaient une assistance technique ainsi que d’autres formes de travail. Cependant, le déploiement d’une technologie à mailles soulève un assortiment singulier de questions légales et politiques.

The purpose of this study is two-folded. The first purpose is to examine the perception of Islamic finance experts and Shariah scholars on the Islamic cryptocurrency (i.e., GOLDX and OneGram). The question is whether it has a role in reconciling cryptocurrency in Islamic finance. The second is to introduce the new Islamic cryptocurrency to serve these rich Islamic populaces. The study used a qualitative research approach by conducting interviews to explore the Islamic scholars’ views on the framework of the new Islamic cryptocurrency. The scholars have been deemed to meet particular requirements of having comprehensive knowledge and have extensive experience in both the Islamic Shariah and cryptocurrency. Accordingly, the number of such scholars was limited, and eventually, with the access offered only to five scholars from different Islamic countries. We thoroughly analyzed the collected data from the interviews. The findings reveal that Islamic law is absent on the essential models for the conventional cryptocurrency utilization(such as bitcoin) as either a legitimate or illicit apparatus exchange device. Consequently, introducing new Islamic cryptocurrencies is to reconcile cryptocurrencies such as GOLDX and OneGram. They will play a vital role in attracting more than 1.5 billion Muslims around the globe to enter the world of cryptocurrency.
