#CEXvsDEX101
CEX (Centralized Exchange)
- Controlled by a company (e.g., Binance, Coinbase).
- Higher liquidity and speed.
- KYC required (identity verification).
- Custody of your funds (risk of hacking or regulation).
DEX (Decentralized Exchange)
- No intermediaries (e.g., Uniswap, PancakeSwap).
- Operate from your wallet (self-custody).
- No KYC (anonymity).
- Less liquidity and slower.
- Smart contracts (risk of bugs).
Which to choose?
-CEX: For beginners or professional trading.
-DEX: For privacy, total control, and new tokens.
💡Ideal: Use both according to your needs
