How to Check OKX Reserve? Asset Transparency Verification
The Proof of Reserves (PoR) can be checked directly on the official website. The core task is to verify two things: first, whether the assets in the platform's public wallet addresses are sufficient to cover all user balances; second, whether your own account balance is included in the total assets.
1. What is Proof of Reserves
OKXhas been publishing monthly Proof of Reserves reports since November 2022, independently audited by blockchain security firm Hacken. A reserve ratio above 100% means the platform holds sufficient assets to cover total user liabilities.
The query entrance is unified on the official website: visit the OKX homepage, and find theProof of Reservespage in the footer or under the "About Us" section.
2. Steps: Check Overall Platform Reserve Ratio
After entering the Proof of Reserves page:
View Reserve Ratio: The top of the page displays the current reserve ratios for major assets (BTC, ETH, USDT, etc.). As of May 7, 2026, the ratios are BTC 104%, ETH 102%, USDT 106%. Click "View OKX Reserve Ratio" to see asset breakdown details, including wallet assets and third-party custodied assets.
Verify Wallet Addresses: The "Proof of Reserves Documents" section provides downloadable files with public wallet addresses. You can check the on-chain balances against these addresses using a blockchain explorer. Reports are updated quarterly or monthly; refer to the "Verification Date" displayed on the page.
3. Verify Your Own Account Inclusion
This is the most critical verification step—confirming that your balance is not omitted.
App Path:
Log in to the OKX App → [Profile] → [Assets] → [Audit]
Tap [View My Audit Data] → [View Details], and the page will display your audit ID and balances for each cryptocurrency.
Web Path:
After logging in, go to [Asset Management] → [My Assets] → [Audit]
Click [View Details] to retrieve your personal audit data.
Manual Verification (Optional): If you have concerns about the automatic verification results, you can use OKX's open-source verification tool (available on GitHub) to manually verify. Copy your personal Merkle tree path data, run the verification tool, and if the result shows "Merkle tree path validation passed," the verification is successful. The zk-STARK technology proves data authenticity without revealing personal privacy. The verification file size has been reduced from 2.55GB to 598KB, making the process more accessible.
4. Interpreting Results
Reserve Ratio ≥ 100%: Indicates that the platform's held assets exceed user liabilities, demonstrating sufficient solvency.
Personal Verification Passed: Your balance is correctly included in the Merkle tree, confirming you are part of the platform's total asset snapshot.
If verification fails or data is not updated for a long time, it is recommended to reduce asset allocation on that platform.
FAQ
How often is the Proof of Reserves updated?The official target is monthly. For the exact update frequency, refer to the verification date noted on the "Proof of Reserves" page on the official website.
Do I need to log in to check the reserve?Viewing the overall platform reserve ratio does not require login; however, checking personal audit data (to verify if your balance is included) requires logging into your account.
Does a reserve ratio above 100% mean absolute safety?The reserve ratio is an important indicator of a platform's solvency, but it cannot cover all risk types (e.g., system security vulnerabilities, private key management). It is advisable to consider the platform's risk control mechanisms and your own security practices. For long-term assets, consider withdrawing them to a self-custodial wallet.
