Binance Updates Proof of Reserves Page, Says User Balances Backed 1:1
Crypto News reported that Binance updated its Proof of Reserves page, saying user balances are backed 1:1 and that reserve ratios sit above 100% for many assets.
Why it matters
A Proof of Reserves page is how a centralised exchange addresses whether customer deposits are fully backed, and Binance's page now covers a long list of tokens alongside Bitcoin and Ethereum. Its significance is limited: the update restates the exchange's own backing claim, and no reserve totals or independent verification were reported.
