What is Proof of Reserves (PoR) user snapshot data?

OKX has implemented Proof of Reserves (PoR) and introduced a net asset snapshot feature. This snapshot captures any debts or negative equity that may arise from borrowing assets. If you notice any discrepancies between your asset overview display and the snapshot result, it could be due to margin trading positions in your trading account or loans (such as flexible loans or fixed term loans) in your Grow account. These factors can affect the overall asset calculation and may result in variations between the two.

Why are the assets in my account inconsistent with the snapshot?

For example, when you have open margin trading positions in your account, the value of these positions can fluctuate based on market conditions. These fluctuations can cause discrepancies between your current asset balance and the snapshot, which is taken at a specific point in time. The assets displayed on the "My Portfolio" page only include the sum of the collateral and Unrealized Profit and Loss (UPL) associated with those positions. The purchased assets and debt of the margin trading position are not included in the "My Portfolio" page but are considered in the snapshot.

If there is a discrepancy between the account asset equity and the snapshot result, does it indicate whether the total value of the account is lower or higher?

If you have a margin position, even if the snapshot result differs from the specified account crypto equity, both calculation methods will have the same total account value in USD. For example, in the case of margin trading, let's say you borrow 3 ETH and sell them for 3 × 1,100 (ETH/USDT price) = 3,300 USDT. In the PoR snapshot, the ETH balance will decrease by 3, while the USDT balance will increase by 3,300. When you combine the PoR snapshot of both ETH and USDT, it will be equivalent to the Unrealized Profit and Loss (UPL) of the margin position.

Here are examples of why the calculations are different

• Margin trading position mode: cross

	Account asset equity	Asset equity snapshot
Initial assets	15 ETH   9,000 USDT
Order placing	Account mode: single-currency Margin trading position mode: cross Buy 10 ETH at 1,087.24 and use ETH as margin The ETH order is filled with a fee of -0.01 ETH, now the assets bought is (10 – 0.01 = 9.99) ETH
Position	After position has been opened, cross account balance is not changed and it is still 15 ETH. There is no isolated position margin in this case.   When position assets are 9.99 ETH and position liability is 10,872.4 USDT, the ETH mark price is 1,091.43 and PnL is 0.0283ETH.
Formula	"Equity" refers to the "Asset" tab of the trading page Account asset equity = cross account balance + isolated position margin + margin trading UPL + futures UPL + perpetual UPL + options value	Asset equity snapshot is calculated by the actual assets and liabilities of margin trading.     Snapshot asset equity = cross account balance + isolated  position margin(except isolated margin trading) + margin trading position assets - margin trading position liabilities + futures UPL + perpetual UPL + options value
Differences in calculation	Asset equity snapshot  – Account asset equity = –isolated position margin(margin trading) + margin trading position assets – margin trading position Liability – margin trading UPL Example: Long ETH/USDT (i.e. borrow USDT to buy ETH) USDT snapshot is calculated as: snapshot equity = the USDT amount shown in "My Portfolio" - the USDT amount of the margin trading position liability ETH snapshot is calculated as: snapshot equity = ETH amount shown in "My Portfolio" + ETH amount of margin trading position assets - ETH amount of margin trading UPL    Example: short ETH/USDT (i.e. borrow ETH and sell USDT) ETH snapshot is calculated as: snapshot equity = ETH amount shown in "My Portfolio" - ETH amount of margin trading position liabilities USDT snapshot is calculated as: Snapshot equity = USDT amount shown in "My Portfolio" + USDT amount of margin trading position assets - USDT amount of margin trading UPL
Results	ETH： Account asset equity = 15 ETH + 0.0283 ETH = 15.0283 ETH    USDT： Account asset.equity = 9,000 USDT	ETH： Snapshot asset equity = 15 ETH + 9.99 ETH = 24.99 ETH USDT： Snapshot asset equity = 9,000 USDT– 10,872.4 USDT = -1,872.4 USDT
Crypto Difference	ETH：Asset equity snapshot – Account asset equity = 24.99 ETH – 15.0283 ETH = 9.9617 ETH USDT：Asset equity snapshot – Account asset equity = -1,872.4 USDT – 9,000 USDT = -10,872.4 USDT
USD value Difference	9.9617 ETH * 1,091.43(ETH mark price) + (-10,872.4 USDT) = 0 USD value of all crypto equity in account = USD value of all assets amount in snapshot
How to cross check with crypto equities	ETH： Isolated position margin(margin trading) = 0 ETH Margin trading position assets = 9.99 ETH Margin trading position liabilities = 0 ETH Margin trading unrealized profit and loss = 0.0283 ETH   D-value = - 0 ETH + 9.99 ETH - 0 ETH - 0.0283 ETH = 9.9617 ETH USDT： Isolated position margin(margin trading) = 0 USDT Margin trading position assets = 0 USDT Margin trading position liabilities = 10,872.4 USDT Margin trading unrealized profit and loss = 0 USDT   D-value = -0 USDT + 0 USDT – 10,872.4 USDT – 0 USDT = -10,872.4 USDT
Audit Details Page - Detailed fields of Trading account	ETH : Balance = cross account balance + isolated position margin(except isolated margin trading) = 15 ETH + 0 = 15 ETH Margin trading position assets = 9.99 ETH Margin trading position liabilities = 0 ETH Floating PnL(Futures/Perpetual UPL + options value) = 0 ETH USDT： Balance = cross account balance + isolated position margin(except isolated margin trading) = 9000 USDT + 0 = 9000 USDT Margin trading position assets = 0 USDT Margin trading position liabilities = -10,874.5 USDT. The liability amount will be a negative number in the audit snapshot. Floating PnL(Futures/Perpetual UPL + options value) = 0 USDT
Note: the overall USD value of the user's account and snapshot assets is equal, but due to the existence of assets and liabilities in margin trading positions, the number of the corresponding crypto will be different
