Exchanges that publish proof of reserves
Exchanges that publish a proof-of-reserves report or attestation on their own site, safest grade first.
The rule behind this list
Rule: a published reserves report exists; reserves alone do not show liabilities, so read the grade too. Exchanges graded below C- are never listed, and partner links do not affect the order.
Exchanges that meet the rule today: 10.

Cryptocurrency investments carry risk, including loss of principal. Nothing on KripZen is financial advice — always do your own research before buying, trading or moving funds.
Other lists
- Lowest-fee crypto exchangesRule: published base-tier spot taker fee, lowest first; exchanges that hide fees behind login are left out.
- Most regulated crypto exchangesRule: confirmed licences and registrations, most first; a licence in one country does not mean access in yours.
- Crypto exchanges for beginnersRule: card purchases, a confirmed licence and grade B- or better; ordered by grade.
- Crypto exchanges with P2P tradingRule: a P2P market is listed on the exchange’s own site; P2P adds counterparty and payment-fraud risk, so use escrow and never pay outside it.
- Crypto exchanges for US usersRule: a confirmed US licence or registration and no US exclusion in the exchange’s terms; availability still varies by state.
