ADVERTISEMENT Proof of Keys Celebration day has been and gone, so which exchanges failed the stress tests?

To briefly recap, 10 years ago on 3 January bitcoin’s genesis block was mined and this was the day picked for the so-called Proof of Keys Celebration.

The brainchild of Trace Mayer, the proof of keys (PoK) event was conceived as a sort of stress test for crypto exchanges and as an educational project to encourage crypto holders to take full control of their private keys in a declaration of monetary sovereignty.

There are suspicions in some quarters that there may be exchanges operating a form of fractional reserve banking, in which they loan out or otherwise make use of the deposits of their customers. https://ethereumworldnews.com/bitcoin-maximalists-reveal-proof-of-keys-failures-but-is-it-all-just-fud/
