#CEXvsDEX101
Ah, the epic clash: CEX (Centralized Exchange) versus DEX (Decentralized Exchange). On one side, we have convenience, high liquidity, and support that responds in three languages, but can freeze your funds with a click (yes, we're looking at you, FTX). On the other side, we have freedom, anonymity, minimal fees, and absolute chaos. In DEX, you are your own bank — which is wonderful until you misspell the wallet address and send everything to digital limbo. CEX is the shopping mall; DEX is the open market. One has centralized security (and bureaucracy), the other, total autonomy (and risks that would make even Indiana Jones sweat). Choose your battlefield, but know: in crypto, the enemy is often your own carelessness.
