> Liquid's wallet holds 4,018.95 BTC against 4,268.95 LBTC in circulation, a 94.14% reserve ratio.

Blockstream has sent another 300 Bitcoin (BTC) to the Liquid Federation wallet, reducing the collateral shortfall against circulating LBTC to 250 BTC.

The wallet now holds 4,018.95 BTC, while 4,268.95 LBTC are in circulation. The difference between those figures is 250 BTC, putting reserves at 94.14% of the outstanding LBTC amount. A fully matched balance would require BTC reserves equal to the circulating LBTC figure; the current total remains below that level.

The top-up comes during Liquid's recovery from a security incident. The transfer narrows the gap, but the reserve figures show Bitcoin holdings have not yet reached parity with circulating LBTC. The shortfall is equivalent to 5.86% of the circulating amount.

The reserve ratio compares Bitcoin held in the federation wallet with LBTC in circulation. It expresses the balance as a percentage: for every 100 LBTC in circulation, the wallet holds BTC equal to 94.14. The update shows the gap has narrowed, while the wallet remains 250 BTC below the circulating LBTC total.
