Weighing the Pros and Cons: Perpetual Trading on CEX & DEX

When it comes to perpetual trading, I’m torn between centralized exchanges like Bitget, Binance, or Bybit, and decentralized exchanges like ZKX.

CEXs offer leverage, user-friendly interfaces, and advanced tools, but DEXs provide security, decentralization, and control over funds. While CEXs have better liquidity, some DEXs like ZKX are catching up. Ultimately, it depends on personal priorities and trading styles. If leverage and UX matter most, CEXs might be the way. But if security and decentralization are key, a DEX like ZKX is the better choice.

What’s your experience with perpetual trading across these platforms? You prefer dex or cex.

I don’t know what security you are talking about. I have seen “Decentralized” platforms get hacked. Those exchanges are not 100% decentralized. The sad truth is that when it comes to Perpetual trading. Liquidity and the speed of execution of an order are very important, which centralized exchanges perform in much better their counterparts.

You also forgot to talk about on chain fees which can prove to be so high as compared to the trading fees in Centralized exchanges especially with chains such as Ethereum
