The two main contenders are <strong>Centralized Exchanges (CEXs)</strong> and <strong>Decentralized Exchanges (DEXs)</strong>, each with distinct features and benefits.</p> 
<p>This report cuts through the confusion, providing a <strong>clear and concise</strong> comparison of CEXs and DEXs. We’ll dive into <strong>statistics</strong> to reveal their market share and potential, analyze their <strong>strengths and weaknesses</strong>, and discuss the <strong>factors driving the rise of DEXs</strong>.</p>

<p>In January, DEX exchanges saw a notable 10% drop in valuation compared to December, signaling a shift in investor interest and a rise in digital assets outflow.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading" id="h-conclusion">Conclusion</h2> 
<p>The Decentralized exchanges (DEX) are still in an early stage as they roughly hold 15% of the total market share. Further, the rising volatility in the industry and constantly changing rules and regulations have started pushing investors toward the world of DEXs.</p> 
<p>Although both exchanges have their own pros and cons in their respective fields, it is highly recommended to place your trades with caution as exchanges are not liable for any transfers made by the crypto holder.</p>
