We’re excited to announce that Huobi is using Chainlink Proof of Reserve (PoR) to help provide transparency around its HBTC H-Token on Ethereum mainnet. By using Proof of Reserve, the amount of BTC in Huobi’s reserves wallets on the Bitcoin blockchain can be verified to match the number of HBTC—Huobi’s wrapped BTC token—on Ethereum. Huobi is using Proof of Reserve in its off-chain system to verify HBTC is fully collateralized prior to minting.
