**CEX vs DEX 101: Where's My Crypto and Who Took My Keys?**

Welcome to *CEX vs DEX 101*—where centralized exchanges (CEXs) feel like cozy crypto hotels, and decentralized exchanges (DEXs) are wild blockchain jungles.

CEX pros? Easy UI, customer support, and someone to yell at when things go wrong.

CEX cons? They hold your keys. Basically, you’re trusting Chad from IT not to "misplace" your BTC.

DEX pros? You're the boss. You hold the keys.

DEX cons? You’re also the intern, manager, and janitor. Lost your seed phrase? GG.

So choose wisely: CEX cuddles or DEX drama. Either way, never forget—crypto’s only fun until someone rage-quits MetaMask.
