PANAMA CITY, April 07, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Poloniex, a leading global crypto exchange, today announced the establishment of a $100 million User Protection Fund, a dedicated security reserve designed to safeguard user assets across its global platform.
The fund will serve as an additional layer of protection beyond the exchange's existing Proof of Reserves framework, which has maintained a reserve ratio above 100% for over 20 consecutive months. While Proof of Reserves ensures full 1:1 coverage of user assets, the User Protection Fund provides a further buffer to strengthen the platform's resilience in extreme scenarios.
"User asset security has always been our foremost priority," said a spokesperson at Poloniex. "The User Protection Fund reflects our continued commitment to building a trusted and reliable trading environment for users worldwide."
Further details regarding the fund's structure, trigger mechanisms, and coverage scope will be disclosed in subsequent announcements.
