Binance, the world’s leading cryptocurrency exchange renowned for its high trading volume, has taken a proactive step towards transparency by releasing its August 2023 reserve report.

This report sheds light on the exchange’s substantial holdings of digital assets and its robust reserves-to-customer-balance ratio.

Unveiling Binance’s Reserves and Ratio

The August 2023 reserve report from Binance underscores the exchange’s commitment to accountability and customer trust.

The central focus of this disclosure lies in the exchange’s ability to cover customer deposits with a significant margin of reserves.
