What is BitPolaris Proof of Reserves Kit?
The Proof of Reserves Kit functions as a crucial verification instrument for reserves, targeting cryptocurrency exchanges, brokers, and custodians in need of confirming customer balances or conducting reserve audits. It enables the importation of liability balances through multiple methods, including CSV files, read-only SQL queries, or internal HTTP endpoints, which are subsequently organized into a Merkle sum tree. This application verifies declared wallet balances on networks such as EVM, TRON, Bitcoin, Solana, and XRP Ledger at designated block or ledger positions, and effectively accommodates Bitcoin HD wallets by utilizing their extended public keys. Moreover, it employs read-only connectors to retrieve balances from Fireblocks vaults, alongside both Binance spot and funding accounts. The software not only verifies wallet ownership signatures but also produces daily snapshots that are Ed25519-signed, in addition to auditor reports and CSV annexes available in English and Turkish. Users can also validate individual inclusion proofs through a specialized branded verification page, enhancing transparency. This service is made available as either a BitPolaris-hosted option or can be installed directly on client servers, which guarantees that it neither stores any keys nor facilitates fund movements. Such dual accessibility significantly boosts its adaptability for various operational setups within the ever-evolving cryptocurrency landscape. Ultimately, this kit provides a reliable framework for maintaining trust and integrity in cryptocurrency transactions.
