##CEXvsDEX101 🔁 – Which Side Are You On?
In the world of crypto trading, there’s a silent war between two giants:
🏦 CEX (Centralized Exchange)
Think Binance, Coinbase, Kraken.
✅ Pros:
• High liquidity
• Fast transactions
• User-friendly interface
⚠️ Cons:
• You don’t control your private keys
• Subject to regulations and shutdowns
🌐 DEX (Decentralized Exchange)
Think Uniswap, PancakeSwap, dYdX.
✅ Pros:
• Full control over your funds
• No KYC, more privacy
• Operates 24/7 globally
⚠️ Cons:
• Lower liquidity
• More complex for beginners
• Risk of fake tokens & failed transactions
🤔 My Take?
CEX for speed & reliability, DEX for freedom & innovation. Why not use both — depending on the situation?
🔐 Rule of thumb: “Not your keys, not your crypto.”
But also: “Without liquidity, freedom is just theory.”
