[\\[2\\]](#cite-id-nva163whcwd)[\\[5\\]](#cite-id-tyu7887irpr)  \n  \n# Interview  \n  \nAfanddy B Hushni, president of [Beldex](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex), gave an interview to the CryptoKnowMics website at the World Blockchain Summit in Bangkok. In this interview which was published on December 11, 2019, various aspects of [decentralized exchanges](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-exchange), privacy-focused [cryptocurrencies](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) and Shariah compliance in the cryptocurrency sector were discussed.  \n  \nDuring the interview, Afanddy highlighted Beldex's upcoming plans to launch its own exchange. He emphasized the platform's strong focus on privacy, noting that unlike [Bitcoin](https://iq.wiki/wiki/bitcoin), [Beldex](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex) is designed to conceal user identities and transaction details. This privacy-centric approach aims to address concerns regarding user anonymity in the [crypto](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) space.  \n  \nAfanddy explained the advantages of [decentralized exchanges (DEXs)](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-exchange), where users retain control over their funds, in contrast to [centralized exchanges](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cex-centralized-exchange) that store user data and assets in a single location. He noted that [Beldex](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex) promotes a decentralized system, ensuring that funds are securely stored on the [blockchain](https://iq.wiki/wiki/blockchain). This decentralized model can enhance security and privacy for users, reducing the risks associated with centralized exchanges.  \n  \nAdditionally, Afanddy mentioned that [Beldex](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex) offers users the flexibility to choose between [decentralized](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-exchange) and [centralized exchanges](https://iq.wiki/wiki/decentralized-exchange) based on their individual needs and preferences. This option allows users to select the exchange model that best suits their requirements.  \n  \nA key point in the discussion was [Beldex's](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex) status as the first Shariah-compliant exchange, adhering to Islamic law by avoiding activities such as money laundering and Ponzi schemes.  \n  \nAfanddy also addressed the common misconception that [cryptocurrency](https://iq.wiki/wiki/cryptocurrency) is synonymous with [Bitcoin](https://iq.wiki/wiki/bitcoin). He encouraged users to explore the broader market, which includes over 10,000 [altcoins](https://iq.wiki/wiki/altcoin), highlighting the diversity and potential of cryptocurrencies beyond Bitcoin.  \n  \nFinally, Afanddy invited users to engage with the [Beldex](https://iq.wiki/wiki/beldex) platform through their website and Telegram community, emphasizing the importance of transparency and community involvement in building trust within the ecosystem.
