CEX vs DEX 🔥 The Ultimate Crypto Showdown
CEX = Centralized Exchange
👥 Run by companies (e.g. Binance, Coinbase)
⚡ Fast, easy to use, fiat-friendly
🔒 But… you don’t own your crypto (they do)
🕵️ KYC required, risk of hacks & freezes
DEX = Decentralized Exchange
🛠 Built on blockchain (e.g. Uniswap, PancakeSwap)
🔐 You own your keys, your crypto, your rules
🕶 No KYC, more privacy, full control
💸 But… slower, gas fees, tricky UI
When to use CEX:
💳 Buying with cash
📱 Easy for beginners
📈 Big trades, high liquidity
🎯 Want staking, margin, support
When to use DEX:
🧠 You know your way around wallets
🕵️ You want privacy & self-custody
🚀 You’re chasing new tokens before they hit CEXs
🤖 You vibe with decentralization
My Take:
Use CEX to get in/out of crypto.
Use DEX to trade & hold long-term.
🏆 Best of both worlds.
CEX = Convenience. DEX = Freedom.
