Featured Speaker Highlight — Safdar Alam @Safdar Alam Muslim Bitcoin Summit 2026 — London, Oct 10–11 Safdar Alam has spent two decades at the sharp end of global finance — structuring billions in Islamic financial products at JPMorgan, UBS, and Crédit Agricole — before becoming one of the most important critical voices in the field. At MBS26 London, Safdar will deliver a talk that cuts to the core of Islamic economic design: Constraint Generates Alpha: From Sound Money to Sovereign Architecture Bitcoin teaches a civilisational lesson: constraints shape incentives, and incentives shape outcomes. Fix the money, and you don’t just fix prices — you fix behaviour, structure, and power. Safdar will explore the next frontier: If Bitcoin solves the monetary problem, what comes next? His session examines how the same principles of constraint apply to: - capital allocation - financial architecture - sovereignty and institutional design - Islamic economic ethics as a blueprint for non‑convergent systems Safdar argues that Islamic principles — real economy linkage, prohibition of ribā, risk‑sharing, transparency, constraint — are not historical artefacts. They are design primitives for building systems that produce different outcomes from today’s debt‑driven, centralised, inflation‑dependent architecture. This is not a talk about products. It’s a talk about first principles, incentives, and the architecture of a sovereign future. 🔗 Safdar’s work: safdaralam.co.uk 🔗 X: @SafdarAlam 🔗 Summit: mslmbtcsummit.com @Muslim Bitcoin Summit image
