CEX (Centralized Exchange):
* Advantages: Easy to use, high liquidity, supports fiat currency, many features.
* Disadvantages: No asset control (the exchange holds assets), centralized hacking risk, requires KYC (identity verification).
DEX (Decentralized Exchange):
* Advantages: Self-control of assets (private wallet), privacy (no KYC), censorship-resistant.
* Disadvantages: Harder to use, liquidity may be low, high and volatile gas fees, fewer advanced features.
In summary: CEX is convenient for newcomers, DEX is safer and more private but requires knowledge.
