Litecoin exchange reserves: how much LTC do exchanges hold?

Binance publishes a proof of reserves every month. In its snapshot of 4 November 2026, the last we read, it says it holds 5.74M LTC for customers' 5.74M LTC, 18,224 LTC of it with a custodian. At 23:00 UTC on 8 Nov 2026 CryptoKeyhole's node saw 6.08M LTC at the litecoin addresses Binance lists, 339,190 LTC more than its statement.

The two needn't match. Binance's figure is a monthly snapshot; ours is this hour. We count every address Binance has listed for litecoin, since a list it later shortened can still hold coins it moved on, and its statement covers coins on other networks and with its custodian that no address list shows. What a match within a few per cent does show is that the coins Binance points to are where it says they are. We read Binance's statements and address lists until 7 November 2026: the endpoint its proof-of-reserves page reads them from asks automated clients not to use it, so none are read after that.

Litecoin at each exchange's own addresses, 23:00 UTC on 8 Nov 2026

• Binance: 6.08M LTC ($304.7M), net unchanged over 7 days; its last litecoin withdrawal was 5,953 blocks ago, about 10.3 days.
• OKX: 3.00M LTC ($150.3M), net +21,111 LTC over 7 days; its last litecoin withdrawal was 1 block ago, about 2 minutes.
• Bybit: 1.15M LTC ($57.6M), net −40,605 LTC over 7 days; its last litecoin withdrawal was in the latest block.
• Bitfinex: 92,503 LTC ($4.64M), net −823 LTC over 7 days; its last litecoin withdrawal was 58 blocks ago, about 2 hours.

An exchange that pays out litecoin almost every hour should keep doing so. For each exchange that withdrew in at least 80% of hours over the past 30 days, we flag a possible pause once the gap since its last withdrawal is longer than chance and its own recent gaps would explain. Open now: Binance since 21:00 UTC on 29 Oct. A flag is a pattern on the chain, not a statement from the exchange; an exchange can also pay out from addresses it doesn't list.

• Only the exchanges' own lists. Every address here is one an exchange publishes as its own (Binance, OKX, Bybit and Bitfinex); each counts for its whole history. No address is added by following transactions.
• Read from our own Litecoin node, block by block, and summed for each UTC hour.
• A lower bound. Exchanges hold coins at addresses they don't list, and Coinbase, Kraken and Robinhood publish no litecoin addresses at all, so the exchanges as a whole hold more than this page shows.
• Coins, not debts. The chain shows what sits at an address, not what an exchange owes its customers or whether the coins are lent.
