Chainlink Offers Its Proof-of-Reserve Product As FTX Crash Rocks The Crypto Market Chainlink Labs’ proof-of-reserve product was offered on Nov. 10 to help solve future trust problems in the crypto exchange market. Chainlink Labs posed the question in a series of tweets: “Will crypto continue to repeat the mistakes of the traditional black-box financial industry? Or will a better system emerge?” In response, it offered its proof-of-reserve (PoR) solution. Chainlink stated it could validate centralized exchange asset reserves, off-chain bank account balances, cross-chain collateral, real-world asset reserves, and more. Recently, the crypto market has been in freefall due to a liquidity problem at the second-largest crypto exchange, FTX. In response to these persistent challenges, the crypto community has been discussing solutions. One possibility is for users to need Proof-of-Reserve from every exchange they use. Using a proof of reserve, customers may conduct an instantaneous audit of cryptocurrency exchanges’ reserves. Several exchanges have begun to adopt proof of reserve, and Binance CEO Changpeng Zhao has suggested that all exchanges should implement it soon. However, several marketplaces have claimed that developing a proof-of-reserves system will take weeks, if not longer. Chainlink Labs rebutted by saying their offering is an “out-of-the-box” answer that exchanges can start using right now. What The Charts Say About Chainlink Since May, LINK has fluctuated in price between $9.45 and $5.62 (yellow), with a mid-price of $7.54.
