Indian crypto exchange WazirX<\/a> has disclosed its proof-of-reserves (PoR) report, showing that over 40% of customer assets are stored on third-party exchanges, according to an Oct. 25 statement<\/a>.<\/p>\n

The exchange said its PoR dashboard<\/a> aims to promote transparency by enabling independent verification of its wallet addresses, which include the precise holdings for each asset.<\/p>\n

WazirX's proof-of-reserve<\/h2>\n

As of Oct. 24, WazirX holds $298.17 million in 242,000 wallets. Of this amount, $157.01 million is held on-chain, $126.91 million is stored externally on other exchanges, and no assets are in third-party custody. Additionally, WazirX noted that it maintains $14.25 million in less liquid assets.<\/p>\n

The embattled India-based exchange said it placed $98 million with “Exchange 1,” 26.81 million with “Exchange 2,” and $2.10 million with “Exchange 3.”<\/p>\n

WazirX did not publicly name these platforms. However, the crypto community has speculated<\/a> that these could be Bybit<\/a>, KuCoin<\/a>, and Huobi<\/a>. WazriX co-founder Nischal Shetty stated<\/a>:<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re actively reaching out to the three exchanges where funds are held, asking for permission to display their names. If granted, we\u2019ll share them openly. If not, we respect their choice.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Across chains, the exchange's most valuable asset is 1140 BTC, equivalent to $77.9 million. This is followed by $26.7 million worth of crypto on the Tron<\/a> blockchain, including $14.7 million worth of TRX and $1.6 million worth of Tether's USDT<\/a> stablecoin.<\/p>\n

Third-party custodian<\/h2>\n

WazirX has announced plans to secure a new third-party custodian that offers fund insurance to bolster customer protection. While WazirX highlighted the importance of security, it also emphasized that fund insurance is becoming increasingly vital for risk management in digital asset custody.<\/p>\n

The firm stated:<\/p>\n

“We\u2019re trying to find a custody provider who can offer insurance for the funds so that loss is minimized, even in worst-case scenarios.”<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

In August, WazirX ended its relationship with its former third-party custody provider, Liminal<\/a>, following the July cyberattack that resulted in a $235 million loss<\/a> of client funds.<\/p>\n

Following the breach, WazirX halted all withdrawals in crypto and Indian rupees (INR), affecting user access to funds. While INR withdrawals have since resumed<\/a>, crypto withdrawals remain suspended as the platform consolidates its reserves and works toward restoring full access.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, WazirX is also intensifying efforts<\/a> to recover the assets and prevent further breaches. The exchange is actively cooperating with the Financial Intelligence Unit and other government agencies in their ongoing investigation into the attack.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
