BTCC, which began operating in 2011, has been selected by Pan Finance as the Most Secure Digital Asset Exchange for 2025, a distinction announced as the exchange reaches its 15th anniversary in 2026. Pan Finance, described by the awarding body as a global financial intelligence publisher with a readership exceeding 200,000 across 150 countries, cited BTCC's operational security record as a central factor in the award.
According to BTCC's statement, the exchange has not experienced a single security breach since its founding. Over 15 years and while servicing in excess of 11 million users worldwide, BTCC has maintained what it describes as a zero-incident history that the company says sets it apart from major competitors.
Aaryn Ling, Head of Branding at BTCC, framed the Pan Finance award as validation of long-standing priorities. "We have been doing this for 15 years and security has never been something we compromise on," Ling said. She emphasized that the recognition reflects the efforts of an entire team dedicated to maintaining that record.
BTCC describes a layered security framework that includes two-factor authentication, strict anti-money laundering (AML) and counter-terrorist financing (CTF) compliance measures, and a 1:1 asset storage policy designed to ensure each user's funds are held in full. The exchange additionally publishes monthly Proof of Reserves reports intended to demonstrate that reserves remain above user liabilities.
In the most recent disclosure cited by the exchange, the March 2026 Proof of Reserves report recorded a total reserve ratio of 135%. Within that report, Bitcoin reserves were reported at 149%. BTCC positions these periodic reports as verifiable evidence that assets are fully backed and over-collateralized on an ongoing basis.
Security credentials have coincided with growth in trading activity and user numbers. BTCC said it registered $3.7 trillion in total trading volume during 2025 and expanded its global user base to more than 11 million. The exchange highlighted additional markers of brand momentum, including its partnership with NBA All-Star Jaren Jackson Jr. as global brand ambassador and recognition as Best Centralized Exchange (Community Choice) from BeInCrypto.
Pan Finance, which delivers quarterly coverage that spans world markets, industry analysis and executive interviews, evaluates award recipients against criteria the outlet characterizes as the highest standards of operational excellence and user trust. The Pan Finance award adds to BTCC's string of public acknowledgments, and the exchange said the distinction reinforces its standing on security within the cryptocurrency trading sector.
BTCC provided references for additional information and contact points, including an award profile and Pan Finance's Q1 2026 magazine, and listed its official web presence and social account. For press contact the company listed Aaryn Ling at [email protected].
Context and implications
For market participants and users evaluating custodial cryptocurrency platforms, BTCC's combination of a long uninterrupted security record, regular Proof of Reserves disclosures, and stated compliance measures are presented by the exchange as central pillars of trust. The company points to over-collateralization metrics in its most recent PoR as concrete indicators that assets held on the platform exceed user liabilities.
While the Pan Finance award highlights security, BTCC's growth in trading volume and user numbers indicates operational scale that the exchange will need to sustain alongside its security and compliance practices.
