There are four major concerns to the cryptographic proof for any customer to consider:
-
Is the total reserves held in custody greater than the total customer balances.
See “Total Company Proof” -
Is my balance included in the total customer balances?
-
Every listed balance is included in the total assets
-
All negative balances are excluded from the calculation of total customer balances
See “zk-SNARK”, where we demonstrate that our exchange does not include negative balances to undervalue our entrusted assets using zk-SNARK. A specific reason for this is to ensure the exchanges cannot maliciously fabricate negative account balances of fake users causing total customer deposits to be underrepresented.
