I need to write a post that compares DEX and CEX, with a simple table using dashes. The table should have columns like Feature, DEX, CEX or something similar, using plain dashes for separators.
Let me draft the content first, then count words.
Structure:
- Introduction paragraph
- Table
- Conclusion paragraph with the required ending line
- Hashtag line
Table format with plain dashes:
Feature --- DEX --- CEX
Control --- Non-custodial, you hold keys --- Custodial, exchange holds keys
Liquidity --- Lower, depends on pools --- Higher, deep order books
Speed --- Slower, on-chain confirmation --- Faster, off-chain matching
Fees --- Gas fees + protocol fees --- Trading fees + withdrawal fees
Privacy --- No KYC usually --- KYC required
Security --- Smart contract risk --- Hack target, but insured sometimes
Access --- Permissionless --- Geographic restrictions
Now write the full post.
Word count target: 180-220 words.
Let me write:

Liquidity --- Lower depends on pools --- Higher deep order books
Speed --- Slower on-chain confirmation --- Faster off
