CEX, DEX, and Crypto Wallet



CEX (Centralized Exchange) is a crypto asset trading platform operated by a company. Users can easily buy, sell, and store assets through the services provided. CEX usually has high liquidity, a user-friendly interface, and features such as trading, staking, and a launchpad. However, users must entrust the storage of their assets to the platform.

DEX (Decentralized Exchange) is a crypto exchange that runs on a blockchain without intermediaries. Transactions are conducted directly from the user’s wallet via smart contracts, so users retain control over their assets. DEX offers greater privacy and control, but users are fully responsible for the security of their wallet and private key.

Wallet crypto is an application or device used to store, send, and receive crypto assets. A wallet does not actually store coins; instead, it stores the private key that provides access to assets on the blockchain. Securing the private key is extremely important because if that key is lost, the assets cannot be recovered.
