Binance Proof-of-Reserves Highlights Investor Move from BTC to ETH

Binance has released its 31st Proof-of-Reserves (PoR) snapshot as of June 1, showing minor shifts in user holdings across top assets. The numbers reflect routine market adjustments but offer a pulse on investor sentiment heading into mid-2025.

BTC Down, ETH Up, USDT Slightly Lower

According to the report, Binance users now collectively hold 593,000 BTC, representing a 1.82% drop from May 1. In contrast, Ethereum holdings have risen by 1.05% to 5.337 million ETH, signaling slight investor confidence in ETH despite recent market turbulence. USDT balances saw a mild dip of 0.77%, now totaling 28.83 billion, marking a decline of $223 million over the past month.

These figures come amid market fluctuations and ongoing demand for transparency from major exchanges. Binance remains the second-largest crypto reserve holder globally, with approximately $110 billion across BTC, ETH, USDT, and USDC. Coinbase still leads the pack with $129 billion under custody, as noted in earlier reports.

PoR Continues to Anchor Trust
