#CEXvsDEX101
Centralized Exchanges (CEX) vs. Decentralized Exchanges (DEX): What's the difference?
CEX (e.g., Binance, Coinbase):
Run by a central authority.
Fast trades, high liquidity.
Requires KYC, custodial (they hold your funds).
User-friendly, but less private.
DEX (e.g., Uniswap, SushiSwap):
No central authority, runs on blockchain.
You control your wallet/keys.
No KYC, more private.
Trades can be slower, less liquid.
Choose CEX for ease and speed, DEX for privacy and control. What's your pick?
