In comparison to users’ holdings, the exchange has maintained a reserve of well over 100% to 132% for various coins.
Binance published its first Proof of Reserves report in July 2023. The report was released as a means to improve transparency following the collapse of the FTX exchange.
The collapse of FTX revealed that the user funds were misappropriated. The exchange’s downfall also faded users’ trust in centralized exchanges. In order to address this issue, the exchange came out with this transparency report. As per the report, all user funds are backed 1:1 by on-chain assets.
The PoR makes use of Merkle Trees to read blockchain data, which allows users to analyze and verify the holdings of the crypto exchange.
