Binance’s Bitcoin Reserves Found to Have Sufficient Collateral, Mazars Report Shows

Binance’s Bitcoin Reserves Pass Audit with Flying Colors, Mazars Report Shows

In a recent development that has sent shockwaves through the crypto world, accounting firm Mazars has confirmed that Binance’s bitcoin reserves have more than enough collateral to cover its liabilities. The review, conducted at the request of Binance last week, revealed that the exchange’s bitcoin collateralization ratio stands at a healthy 101%.

According to Mazars, Binance controls assets in excess of 100% of its total platform liabilities, with a net customer balance of 575,742.4228 bitcoin. This news comes in the wake of the collapse of FTX, which has reignited calls for transparency and accountability among crypto firms.

Binance, the world’s largest crypto exchange by trading volume, had pledged to undergo a proof of reserves audit, following in the footsteps of several other exchanges. CEO Changpeng Zhao has emphasized the importance of “full transparency” between exchanges and their clients, in a bid to rebuild trust in the industry.

However, experts caution that proof of reserves audits may not provide a complete picture of an exchange’s financial health. While they can reassure customers that their funds are safe, they may not reveal underlying risks or vulnerabilities. Despite this, Binance remains committed to upholding the highest standards of transparency and accountability.

In a separate development, Zhao took to Twitter to address what he called “wrong narratives” surrounding the collapse of FTX. He accused FTX founder Sam Bankman-Fried of perpetuating a false narrative and labeled him as a “fraudster” and “master manipulator.”

As the crypto industry grapples with the fallout from FTX’s demise, Binance’s successful proof of reserves audit serves as a beacon of hope for investors and customers alike. With transparency and accountability at the forefront, Binance is setting a new standard for the industry as a whole.
