MEXC and Hacken: New Transparency Standard with Monthly Audits on Proof of Reserves

MEXC, one of the leading global cryptocurrency exchanges, has announced a significant expansion of its collaboration with Hacken, a leader in blockchain security. 

The objective is clear: to make monthly audits of Proof of Reserves (PoR) a standard practice, enhancing transparency and user trust in the crypto sector. 

This initiative transforms a previous security-focused report into a true framework of transparency, providing users with constant and independent verification of asset coverage.

Proof of Reserves: a Guarantee for MEXC Users

The latest data on Proof of Reserves from MEXC confirms that the reserves of the main assets exceed 100%, ensuring that all user deposits are fully covered.

Users can independently verify their funds at any time thanks to the MEXC Merkle Tree system, which provides cryptographic proof of reserves through a dedicated verification page.

This tool provides unprecedented transparency, allowing anyone to verify the financial soundness of the exchange in real-time.

Hacken: Blockchain Expertise and Enterprise-Level Security

Hacken stands out in the blockchain security landscape for its native Web3 approach, combined with enterprise-level expertise, AI-based security solutions, and globally recognized certifications.

Since 2017, Hacken has been chosen by over 1,500 entities, including the European Commission, ADGM, MetaMask, Ethereum Foundation, and Binance, to protect the emerging digital infrastructure. Hacken’s involvement as an external and independent partner represents a guarantee of impartiality and professionalism in the reserve verification process.

Monthly Audits: A New Level of Transparency

The most significant development of this collaboration is the introduction of monthly audits on Proof of Reserves, conducted by Hacken. These audits will complement the PoR infrastructure already offered to users by MEXC, adding an independent and specialized verification. Each monthly report will verify MEXC’s reserves against user balances for major digital assets, creating a verifiable and public record of the exchange’s financial position over time.

This practice addresses one of the main gaps in the crypto industry: the lack of rigorous and continuous standards on reserve transparency. Through the regular publication of reports, MEXC and Hacken aim to establish a new benchmark for the entire sector, providing users with additional assurance on the protection of their funds.

Independence and Autonomy in Verification

A key element of the agreement is Hacken’s complete autonomy in the audit process. Each report will be published directly by Hacken, without any editorial intervention, approval, or modification by MEXC. 

This ensures that reserve data is not only accessible but also verified and disclosed by a fully independent third party. The first report is expected by the end of November, marking the beginning of a new era of transparency for the exchange’s users.

Evolution of the Partnership: From Technical Security to Operational Transparency

The collaboration between MEXC and Hacken began in 2025 with the security audit of MEXC’s mobile application. The extension of the agreement to include monthly reserve audits marks a significant breakthrough, shifting the focus from solely technical infrastructure to ongoing operational transparency. 

MEXC’s commitment to monthly independent audits sets a new benchmark for management transparency, enhancing user protection and the accountability of the exchange.

MEXC: a global exchange at the user’s service

Founded in 2018, MEXC has established itself as one of the most accessible and innovative platforms in the crypto landscape, with over 40 million users across more than 170 countries and regions. The exchange is known for its wide selection of emerging tokens, daily airdrop opportunities, and low trading fees. 

The platform is designed to be intuitive for both new traders and experienced investors, providing secure and efficient access to digital assets. Ease of use and a focus on innovation are the pillars guiding MEXC’s mission: to make crypto trading more accessible and rewarding for everyone.

Hacken: 360-Degree Blockchain Security

Hacken is confirmed as a key partner for security and compliance in the world of digital assets. Thanks to a blockchain-native approach, Hacken offers offensive security solutions based on artificial intelligence and holds internationally recognized certifications.

The trust granted by leading institutions and companies attests to the solidity and credibility of the team, which supports organizations in protecting their infrastructures and complying with the most advanced regulations in the digital sector.

A New Trust Model for the Crypto Sector

The joint initiative by MEXC and Hacken represents a crucial step towards the maturity of the crypto sector, placing transparency and security at the heart of the user experience. The monthly audits on Proof of Reserves, conducted by an independent entity, provide users with the assurance that their funds are always protected and verifiable. 

In a constantly evolving market, this partnership establishes a new model of trust and accountability, set to become a benchmark for the entire cryptocurrency ecosystem.
