The popular okx crypto exchange published its third Proof-of-Reserves (POR), in which it revealed that it holds "clean assets" worth $ 7.5 billion in BTC, ETH and USDT.

In an explanation, Haider Rafique said Chief Marketing Officer from OKX:

"Security, transparency and trust are basic principles of the business processes and the customer service philosophy of OKX. With the monthly publication of our POR, we have already taken a leadership position. Since the industrial standards for POR continue shape, we expect that our reserve asset quality will be on the market of many important differentiation factors for OKX."

According to the latest data, the Wallets from OKX contained OKX on January 18, 123,914 BTC compared to a user converter of 117,682 BTC. The stock exchange is covered with a Bitcoin reserve quota of 101 %, unchanged since the POR report last month.

In a similar way, the reserve set for Ethereum was 105 %, a slight increase in 103 % last month. Okx held 1,178,993 ETH compared to a user convey of 1,233,714 ETH. The Tether reserves also remained unchanged at 101 %. OKX held 2,979,866.301 USDT stocks compared to 2,955,696,824 in the user converter.

Citing the results of the blockchain analysis company Cryptoquant OKX of the community that this was the "largest reserve of clean assets among the large stock exchanges". Cryptoquant previously explained to the context that 100 % of the Wallets from OKX are clean. In contrast, 87.67 % of Binance, 60.1 % of Huobi, 69.85 % of Bitfinex, 81.26 % of Kucoin and 95.49 % of Crypto.com are clean.

OKX said that asset reserves are considered "clean" if an analysis of a third party determines that the reserves do not contain a native token of a crypto exchange and consist exclusively of "traditional" crypto-assets with high market capitalization such as Bitcoin, Ethereum and Tether.

After the collapse of FTX, allegations of violation of their own terms of use and the abuse of user funds shaked the trust of investors. Despite the trials and confusion of the past decades, Okx's financial market director, Lennix Lai, said that the cryptocurrency industry will "change the world". The manager also said that OKX "has never misused user resources and will never do so".
