The reports for other tokens will, however, be released soon, it was said.
According to the report, Binance verified its proof of reserves and proof of liabilities on November 22, 2022. The auditing companies noted that the cryptocurrency exchange held scope assets that were more than 100% of their total platform liabilities.
The current Bitcoin net customer balance for Binance is 575742.4228.
Duplicate IDs?
The auditing company claimed to have compared the total amount of each blockchain asset included in its scope. They were unable to locate any variations higher than 1%, though.
The company checked the Customer Liability Report for any user ID duplicates. They discovered that the user IDs had been hashed and were just 16 bytes long. However, no duplicate user identifiers were found.
