🔄 #CEXvsDEX101: What’s the Real Difference Between Centralized and Decentralized Exchanges?

When it comes to trading crypto, where you trade matters just as much as what you trade. Here's the breakdown:

🔐 CEX – Centralized Exchange (e.g., Binance)

✅ User-friendly

✅ High liquidity & faster transactions

✅ Advanced features (spot, futures, margin)

❗ Requires KYC (identity verification)

❗ Your assets are held by the exchange

🔓 DEX – Decentralized Exchange (e.g., PancakeSwap, Uniswap)

✅ No middleman – you're in control of your funds

✅ No KYC – more privacy

✅ Powered by smart contracts

❗ Lower liquidity & slower trades

❗ Limited trading pairs & features

🧠 TL;DR:

CEX = convenience & speed, ideal for beginners & pros

DEX = privacy & control, ideal for DeFi-native users
