One big reason to use Shibarium, not CEXes: SHIB team

The X account “Shibarium/BONE Updates” (@Shibizens), affiliated with the Shiba Inu team, has addressed the community with a tweet, highlighting the advantages of using Shibarium and DeFi wallets on it versus using an account on a centralized cryptocurrency exchange.

The post compares important nuances of using DeFi wallets versus utilizing an account on a centralized exchange. Using a DeFi wallet does not require an ID or any KYC measures. You do not have to provide your email address or phone number. You just generate a wallet, save your SEED phrase and it is all done within a minute. “You control your funds. You own the keys,” the post states.

When it comes to setting up an account with a CEX — Binance, OKX, Coinbase, etc. — you submit your passport or ID, provide a selfie for facial scan, provide proof of your physical address, add a phone number/email address and wait to be approved or rejected.

The most important thing is that, the X posts stresses: “They hold your crypto. They decide what happens next.” “DeFi = freedom. CEX = permission,” @Shibizens concludes.
