High liquidity, user-friendly interfaces, and customer support, with some security risks and exposure to government regulations, these are the main points of centralized exchanges. Decentralized exchanges prioritize privacy and user control, allowing trades directly from personal wallets without intermediaries, adhering exactly to the fundamental principle of cryptocurrencies.

At the beginning of Bitcoin's conception, using decentralized means was not optional, as there were no centralized offers and means for trading.

Today, the trend is for beginners to seek centralized exchanges, but after gaining more knowledge, they tend to enter a decentralized universe, especially if they see cryptocurrencies as a libertarian way rather than a speculative product.
