Proof of reserves are reports published by third-party auditors after a comprehensive analysis of a crypto company. Publishing proof of reserves has been an industry standard for crypto exchanges ever since the FTX exchange collapsed due to mismanagement of user funds. The FTX bankruptcy painted an ugly picture of crypto as a playground for dishonest participants, including executives and owners of crypto entities such as exchanges. 
OKX Exchange also <a href="https://www.okx.com/proof-of-reserves" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">published</a> its 23rd proof of reserves snapshot on September 16th.

According to the snapshot, OKX reported having 136,211 BTC and 1.597 million Ethereum. OKX was also revealed to have 5.862 billion USDT in its custody.&nbsp; 
The exchange’s USDC holdings settled at 1.071 billion, and those of XRP stood at 227.7 million. The exchange reported Solana and Dogecoin holdings as 3.6 million and 3.852 billion, respectively. On the other hand, the exchange’s report indicates OKX holds 194.6 million OKB coins.
