Gate.io is accused of using 320K ETH sent by Crypto.com to fluff a proof-of-reserves audit. I dug into some of the details, and it looks like this may not be the case based on the timeline of events and block height. Despite this, many are still claiming Gate.io falsified its reserves. Here's what I've collected: Oct 19, 2022Audit firm Armanino LLP takes a snapshot of Gate.io's BTC and ETH reserves, later reported in a proof-of-reserves audit report released on Oct 28.
