Your explanations keep getting better and better!! Great Stuff bro!! Love your content. Can you do a 'Swap vs Swap' video for the DEX's?

[@ronnydraper]

This channel is my Crypto text book

[@monikarosa2895]

I’ve read the definition so many times, but thank you for helping me actually visualize and understand better.

Brilliant ♥️

[@aryanshpandey8063]

lovely video thanks

[@TheRollupCo]

Nice explanation video about the DEX

[@sameerayyagari]

Amazing channel! Thanks for the info! It would be great if you can add the links to the videos that you mention in this video in the description and also info cards. I have more ideas wrt the channel too (just super interesting in crypto right now). Let me know if you guys want to have a conversation regarding it.

[@CryptoEthos]

Great job on the video. One of the most important aspects that you neglected to mention. On a Dex you hold your own keys. On a cex this is not the case. Not your keys not your coins. This is why Crypto was invented. Dex=no middle man. You’re in control! Not centralized the exchanges.

[@jayne-go9uj]

😊 get me bigger picture and simple point than I read guideline book 7:01 😊

[@Dawg99999]

Yeah but some of your money is insured on a CEX..

[@jimmystcin6426]

Isn't that the purpose of having a crypto wallet? You shouldn't be keeping your coins on an exchange, you should move them into a wallet after you buy the coins. Besides, what's the point of using a DEX if you need a CEX to convert fiat currency to crypto?

[@panacalsam385]

Great explanation bro

[@moarteapetrecerii]

Maiar dex will be huge.😍 Mega bullish on Elrond! Great content. Wish u the best🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀🚀

[@victorafude6230]

Easy to comprehend 😍

[@jamesp8459]

Imagine seeing a ton of coins appear in your account from someone's mistake.

[@Voudoo1]

Oh, i would feel sooo bad...

[@ollya4067]

Youre the best.

[@efiritamaradeinyefa1510]

Please when would the video on limit order and market order be ready

[@rubentxu13]

Thanks

[@gdragon8059]

What is the difference then with atomic swap and dex?

[@taika023]

Can you explain what IDO is in one of your videos? Thanks

[@sanketnaikwadi1930]

Hey..Can u make video on Thorchain Please..it provides way to do Swaps between different blockchains without bridge or any wrapped versions..

[@telesniper2]

4:45 Ok, I want to do something similar, but instead of coin for coin, I want to offer/schedule community resources in exchange for coin. Say the sellers all have a common services, and they come together to work as a team to offer that service working together, based on the order book. Lets say we wanted to offer house building services(just an example). The order book takes bids from the buyers, and whoever offers the highest price, the community will come together and build their house first. Now, say the community can work on more than one house at once (but they can't do too many). So say the next highest bidder in the orderbook will have their house built too, but maybe slightly slower. Do you know of any projects like this so that you can get me pointed in the right direction? Thanks a million!

[@SilentTM]

Who hosts the DEX website?

[@NandishPatelV]

Got a bit confusing around liquidity pools, otherwise great. Thanks 😊 KeepSmiling

[@MrWarrenRB]

Dex are not faster than cex. Plenty of dex will trade instantly. Also, ETH has high gas fees which means it’s not cheaper to trade.

[@mattizzle81]

Eth yes but there are other protocols.

[@NCRMoment]

Cronos is wayyy cheaper than ethereum. No way I’m paying 12$ per transaction

[@Deksingburi]

You are absolutely right. I felt the same thing when I used Dex. The good thing about Dex is no TAX and no KYC.

[@mixvideos188]

Dex is to avoid happen like ftx.🤩

[@jnellie1970]

Good stuff. Why do I feel like the video was supposed to end with a laser show?

[@GK-fb2yy]

How to put buy/sell order on DEX ?

[@lawrencer25]

Fabulous

[@armandosiliceo-roman6710]

i thought that some centralized exchanges do allow for use of cold wallets. can you please clarify? thx

[@ericaphabio4432]

How does a layer-3 DEX like Hydranet’s work? It claims to allow cross-chain swaps on layer 3.

[@tailorshara8045]

Hydranet combines Connext and Lightning Network. That's how it allows faster and cheaper transactions on layer 3.

[@kayleespacy8435]

Why interested in technical stuff? Buy its token, HDX and stake it, a smart way of investment.

[@hosata]

Hydranet's DEX is on Beta. For now, buying its token, HDX might be a good idea, it's got potential.

[@mehranwild5602]

What's your thought on Stakenet DEX? Cross-chain swaps on layer 3, it seems interesting to me what it is.

[@ocavant]

How about explaining exactly how you go about using a DEX in a practical sense? How do you get from fiat to buying something on a DEX? Connecting a wallet and then doing the purchase /exchange.

[@streetfoodworld1012]

Hope you put captions on all of your videos. Great video anyway..

[@hosata]

What's your thought on Stakenet Dex? Please make a video, it allows cross-chain swaps on layer 3!

[@johnbascom4523]

In traditional trading there is a person called the market maker who will take your order and do your trade and they will then find a seller for your trade and purchase you get your money and you don't have to wait they take the risk your get your money instantly and there is no waiting around the market makers do the waiting around.

[@andrewtaye]

How do DEXs keep track of price fluctuations? if a customer buys enough tokens to shift the price of a token on one exchange How do other exchanges obtain this information and adjust their prices?

[@dallastvmemories]

You say that a Liquidity Pool solves the problem of waiting around for a transaction to be made at the price you wish by completing the transaction immediately at the market price in the pool. But how is this any better than a regular exchange where you can buy the token immediately at the market price? They both sound the same.

[@sanityisnofun]

do you think LTT is going to 'compete' as an exchange or i guess cex to these dex your fave is Uni or cadarna or

[@BulletsandCrypto]

Could you guys do a review of CERTICOS (CERITCOSIGN)? The white paper is saying that it is like DocuSign/Panda Doc but uses the CERTICOS token to transfer and store documents on a blockchain...pretty interesting?

[@vinaslital6486]

If it possible make a video about Bisq dex

[@jerrysnot6779]

Any change you could review SOKU? They are DEX and has ETH & BSC.

[@abdulmudenje4438]

I beg u make a video about cult DAO. Thank you.

[@jand2255]

could you pls make video about cross chain dex like FibSwap and others

[@machashanker6407]

Can I know software using for animation for ur videos?

[@AyeshaMaqsood-kx4yq]

Smog Token is pure speculation, but that's the thrill for some! 🎰😅

[@viktorkuzmanov3086]

for better viewer experience you can enable the autogenerated captions provided by KZbin since they are one click away

[@TheAIKnowledgeHub]

3:55 is wrong. You do not need a hot wallet. I use my hardware wallet all the time with DEX. Basically Metamask and a few other things have the ability to link your hardware wallet. It will require your hardware wallet to approve transactions.

[@xXyasabeXx]

I have a transaction stuck in my defi wallet, does anyone know how I can get it unstuck?

[@212025510]

It's like learning crypto at school.

[@NOSTALGIA.64]

lets do a video on Osmosis dex!

[@f1346m]

In what way, shape, or form can the government regulate decentralized exchanges??

[@HazardxBomber]

They can’t. That’s the whole point of them

[@cryptobull2493]

Get in Radix XRD early now before all the upcoming updates and exchanges 🚀📈💎🙌🏼

[@kbs7340]

👍

[@notgay27]

Rubic exchange allows you to trade cross-chain ;)

[@analyticalmindset]

So with dexs I don't have to worry about taxes if I manuever correctly?

[@daddyelon4577]

thats shady

[@mozozky]

Yes kinda

[@mozozky]

You still needed use cex to actually swap your stablecoin into real fiat

[@daddyelon4577]

@@mozozky nah ill just find individual buyers on discord

[@Maynardd]

You can trade as much as you want without having to pay taxes using a decentralized exchange. There is no reporting of anything. No one knows who you are, etc. But you can’t get out of crypto on a decentralized exchange. Not that I’m aware of anyway so you would have to use a centralized exchange for that and would pay the tax one time on your crypto. But the good news is you can make 20 different trades and not pay any taxes at all on any of them. This is why governments hate them. But since taxation is illegal, they can piss off….

[@nigelscrivin5010]

Take a look at Marketmove's new DEX. Uses AI to find the best liquidity pool route to get the best price. Can save you up to 15% depending on the token.

[@garrithgill6692]

I’m still so confused. So does a CEX use liquidity pools or do they use automated market makers?

[@michaelanadi]

They use orderbooks

[@ranielnascimentoferreira8808]

CEX... The inner 5th grade made me laugh 😂

[@Oscarji888]

Meet Sologenic!!

[@magicalrat1792]

are dex considered as dao?

[@lifeofladi]

Are you saying every DEX is a liquidity Pool?

[@CosmosGamingChannel]

1:40 Let me introduce you to Cosmos Network

[@almasbaig5896]

Stakenet DEX will rule them all

[@Ednel_Monilla18]

CEX!!!!!

[@trenches-boi-12]

Good😂

[@Crunch15323]

So I can’t exchange it for real cash?

[@BlackJack393]

Bitcoin is real Cash and all you will need in the not so distant future of money

[@scz5807]

can u add subtitle? please!

[@noresponse]

came here to figure out how the new PulseX system will work

[@aegon1931]

i hope there is a subtitle 😭

[@mykhel]

does it exist ? 😅 it's only DEX VIA PAPER yet all the major cryto exchanges are not fully decentralized... so should be call it SDEX?

[@scottdonnelly3835]

Should mention that with the current high gas costs these don't make much sense unless you are swapping relatively high volumes...

[@adammoore7447]

Wait...DEX = small fees??? Have you ever swapped Ethereum-based tokens? Gas fees kill

[@lowiehojas5525]

"Cex" xD

[@bionicbeaver5188]

Small fee’s? Can we talk about congestion in the Blockchain? I remember paying 10x the actual transaction to fees! 🤷🏼‍♀️

[@Thatdrop]

i would add man or women at the beginning to be safe haha

[@Cybernaut76]

Then all you need to do is change that all from Decentralized Exchange into Centralized Exchange and what you have is.....something a certain well known book from two THOUSAND years ago warns us about in some of its last pages?

[@asitisj]

Smart contracts is not a legal contract in Indian court of law

[@phongers87]

By law of KZbin, everytime he says "Metamask", you must immediately repeat it, and anyone else besides you who hears it must repeat it themselves.

[@newageeducation5908]

Dex code??!

[@olaoladapo494]

I'm Yet to understand what Dex and cex mean

[@Archonsx]

they are too expansive to use tho, for example uniswap, they take like 3%, which is insane, i’d rather use banks

[@SVAFnemesis]

I fail to see how this is decentralized when so many action taking place is actually centralized.
