Justin Sun holds $1.6 billion BTC on HTX, exceeds half of exchange’s reserves
Tron founder Justin Sun showcased his personal HTX account today, revealing holdings amounting to approximately $1.6 billion, equivalent to 28,613 BTC.
Sun’s screenshot has also driven conversations about HTX’s reserves. As of Feb. 1, HTX’s publicly disclosed reserve certificates showed that the exchange holds nearly $3.5 billion in reserve assets, which includes 540 million USDT, 21,543 BTC, 109,000 ETH, and 9.4 billion TRX. This would mean Sun’s assets cover over half of HTX’s reserves.
Sun’s net worth could also be among the top ten wealthiest leaders in the crypto industry. Last week, crypto.news reported that Sun potentially bought $160m in Ethereum, which could signal a bullish trend for the second-largest crypto. ETH has rallied since yesterday, reaching $3,200 for the first time in two years, meaning Sun’s latest acquisition is also 11% higher based on the latest price.
