⚖️ CEX vs DEX: A Quick Rundown You Need! 🔁🔐
When it comes to trading crypto, you’ve got two main choices:
🏛️ Centralized Exchanges (CEXs) – e.g., Binance, Coinbase
✅ Easy to use
✅ High liquidity & customer support
❌ Requires KYC 📄
❌ You don’t own your private keys (not your keys, not your coins!)
🌐 Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs) – e.g., Uniswap, PancakeSwap
✅ Peer-to-peer trading via smart contracts
✅ Full control & self-custody 🔑
✅ No KYC, censorship-resistant 🚫👀
❌ Steeper learning curve
❌ Lower liquidity for some tokens
🤔 The real question: Do you value convenience or control?
🔒 DEX = freedom & privacy
⚙️ CEX = simplicity & support
📢 Choose wisely based on your goals — and always stay secure!
