5/6 — CEX vs DEX vs wallet apps — Project — decision grid
What to writeCreate a 2x3 grid: CEX, DEX, Wallet app across the top; rows for “When to use,” “Main risks,” and “One safety habit.” Fill it out in your own words so you can glance at it before choosing a path.
The root problem with conventional currency is all the trust that’s required to make it work.
Example: CEX — on/off ramp; risks: freeze/withdrawal limits; habit: withdraw to self-custody quickly. DEX — swaps; risks: signing bad contracts; habit: verify URL + contract + chain. Wallet app — daily hold; risks: device loss or seed leak; habit: hardware backup and no seed typing anywhere.
