Bybit’s CEO Dispels The Rumors
On Tuesday, reports circulated of a crypto exchange insolvency on private chats. The rumors sparked fear of another FTX-like debacle looming. The reports originally surged as Arkham Intelligence’s Proof-of-Reserves (PoR) graph suddenly dropped from the $11 billion range to the $6 billion mark.
An X user quickly pointed out that the news was false as Arkham’s graph was broken. The user detailed that a specific wallet was causing a bug that didn’t show over $4 billion in funds in the chart. However, if checked individually, all assets appeared on the wallets.
