FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Date: June 23, 2026
Most exchange transparency reports come and go without much attention. Bitget's June 2026 edition is worth a closer look.
The global crypto exchange has published its latest Proof of Reserves report, revealing a total reserve ratio of 127%. That means for every dollar users have deposited, Bitget holds $1.27 in verified, audited assets. The figure itself is strong, but the real story is the streak behind it, 42 consecutive months of uninterrupted monthly disclosures, the longest continuous record of any major digital asset trading platform.
What the June 2026 Numbers Show
The asset-level breakdown is specific and independently verifiable. Bitcoin reserves sit at 138%, Ethereum at 137%, and Tether at 121%. Each ratio confirms that user funds are not just covered but meaningfully over-collateralised across all three of the platform's primary assets.
Bitget launched this monthly reporting program in December 2022, at a point when the crypto industry was under serious pressure to prove solvency. While most competitors still report quarterly, creating a 90-day visibility gap for users, Bitget committed to monthly publication and has held that cadence without a single miss for three and a half years.
Users Can Verify It Independently
What separates this report from a standard exchange announcement is the verification architecture behind it. Bitget uses a Merkle tree cryptographic structure, which allows any user to independently confirm their balance is fully backed without relying on the exchange's own interface.
The verification runs across three layers. Users can check the aggregate root hash directly on Bitget's Proof of Reserves page. An open-source MerkleValidator tool is also available on Bitget's official GitHub, allowing anyone to confirm their specific account is included in the reserve snapshot. On top of that, Bitget publishes its raw wallet addresses publicly, so holdings can be cross-checked using independent blockchain explorers like Etherscan or Blockchain.com.
That level of user-side verification is not common across the industry.
A Separate $300 Million Safety Layer
Beyond the reserve ratios, Bitget also maintains the Bitget Protection Fund, a dedicated emergency reserve with a committed minimum value of $300 million. This pool sits completely separate from user trading deposits and acts as a secondary financial backstop in the event of major operational or cybersecurity incidents.
It adds a meaningful layer of protection that goes beyond what the reserve ratios alone communicate.
Why the Streak Matters
Forty-two months is a long time to maintain any discipline in crypto, let alone a monthly public audit cycle. The exchange kept publishing through market downturns, industry scandals, and periods when scrutiny on centralised platforms was at its highest.
That consistency is arguably the most meaningful signal in this report. Reserve ratios can be managed around a single snapshot date. A 42-month unbroken record is much harder to manufacture.
