Decentralized crypto exchanges, also called DEX, are cryptocurrency marketplaces that facilitate peer-to-peer transactions between crypto traders, without the need of an intermediary.

White Line

Centralized exchanges like Binance and Coinbase operate like banks, where users are subjected to undergo a mandatory KYC verification. This undermines users’ privacy and complete control of their funds.

White Line

With DEXs, users are completely anonymous and maintain full control of their assets. Here are some of the top decentralized crypto exchanges you can use today.

Uniswap
