A post-FTX proof-of-reserves (via BitGo, ~$15B estimated) exists, but there is no regular independent third-party audit. Source →

How XMR earns on Bitfinex
When you deposit XMR into Bitfinex's earn product you receive 2.05 % APY as a Earn rate. The platform puts the asset to work and shares the yield — your balance grows without you doing anything.
This is a base rate, not a promotional teaser: it's what an ordinary deposit actually earns. Bitfinex carries a YieldScope safety grade of D, so weigh the yield against platform risk — a higher rate on a weaker grade is not automatically a better deal.
Rates on XMR move with lending demand and market conditions. We re-check them daily and keep a history, so you can see whether today's number is unusually high, unusually low, or steady.
