The evolution of several types of cryptocurrencies brought about a new form of trade and marketplace – Cryptocurrency Exchanges, which in turn has birthed so many innovative solutions in the blockchain industry. The two major types being Centralized and Decentralized Crypto exchanges.
Unlike traditional currency and value exchanges, Centralized crypto exchanges ensures that transactions are carried out speedily between users and the financial institutions with high volume, but have a very big issue – Users have no control over their funds as it is managed by the operators.
Just like centralized exchanges, decentralized exchanges ensures that users have total control of their funds by using private keys to lock their funds, but the system suffers from slow trading speed and low volume.
The blockchain ecosystem is a solution, a solution to every problem or that can be modified to solve every problem, there is need for a blockchain solution that effectively combines the advantages of both centralized and decentralized exchanges in one place, with none of their problems affecting the system.
