Bitget Updates Proof of Reserves for May 2026

Bitget has officially updated its Proof of Reserves (PoR) for May 2026. The total reserve ratio currently stands at 127%, meaning Bitget holds $1.27 for every $1.00 of user assets — well above the 1:1 minimum requirement.

What Is the Proof of Reserves?

Introduced in December 2022, Bitget’s Proof of Reserves is a monthly transparency mechanism that verifies the exchange holds sufficient funds to fully back all user deposits. Reserve data is updated every month to ensure at least a 1:1 ratio between user assets and exchange holdings.

Users can independently verify their own assets using MerkleValidator, an open-source verification tool available on GitHub. This cryptographic approach allows anyone to confirm their funds are included in the reserves without relying on a third party.

Protection Fund: An Extra Layer of Security

In addition to the Proof of Reserves, Bitget maintains a dedicated Protection Fund initially funded at US$300 million. Bitget is committed to keeping the fund’s valuation above $300 million at all times, providing an additional safety net for users in the unlikely event of an extraordinary market incident.
