When you buy crypto on an exchange versus swap tokens on-chain using a wallet, where are your assets held?
It’s worth understanding the difference between centralized and decentralized exchanges.
The fundamental difference is who holds custody of your assets: on a CEX, the platform holds them for you; on a DEX, you control your own private keys.
If you don’t understand something, avoid putting a large amount into it. It’s safer to start with a small amount.
