The time has come to make a shift. Staying glued to centralized exchanges might feel safe, but it's worth reconsidering. Decentralized platforms offer something CEXs can't match—true self-custody and financial sovereignty. Your keys, your coins, your rules. Sure, DEX interfaces take some getting used to, but the learning curve beats losing control of your assets. More and more users are waking up to this reality. The infrastructure is there, the liquidity is growing, and slippage keeps improving. Why wait? The future of crypto belongs to those willing to move beyond intermediaries. It's not just a trend—it's the whole point of decentralized finance.

Alright, here we go again with this self-custody faith spiel. I believe in you... Speaking of which, the DEX experience is indeed getting smoother and smoother. Slippage is really not as outrageous as before anymore.

Nah CEX, this system will eventually fail; owning your own keys is the true guarantee.

Alright, it's really time to embrace DEX, we can't be tied down by CEX forever.

Damn, still promoting leaving centralized exchanges, but is the improvement in slippage really enough?

Nah, really, staying in CEXs all the time, it's about time to wake up. Self-custody is the way to go.

To be honest, the CEX approach should have been reflected on long ago. Self-custody is truly the core, but I'm worried that most people still prefer convenience and are unwilling to bother with it.

Sounds good, but most people simply can't hold onto their private keys.
