The solution would be a cryptographic proof of reserves done on regular basis in a certain block interval, say every 144 blocks (which would basically mean daily).

Let’s start this interval with the next difficulty adjustment in block 764,064. Every exchange that holds bitcoin has to prove how much BTC they hold, all of the exchanges had to do it simultaneously in the given block. This way we circumvent the possibility of them moving the funds around so that all of them could proof their holdings with the same stack of bitcoins.

Just an idea. Those who don’t participate should be avoided as exchange in general. I am not an expert, but I think this could be doable.
