Investing Question: Is participating in a proof of stake network halal?

Assalamu Alaikum, In the majority of Proof of Stake blockchains, as they are in its infancy the rewards come from a combination of transaction fees aswell as a minting process. In the long term the rewards will be purely from tx fees, but in the early stage the majority of profits originate from new coins/tokens being printed - unless they have a 100% premine. Does this change the permissibility at all?

The Muftis here are of the opinion (i think both of them) that the principle of staking is permissible. Though it would depend on how the staking works exactly
