Decentralized exchanges are undervalued and gaining traction, with volumes reaching all-time highs.

These are the findings of Messari researcher Kunal Goel who said that centralized exchanges (CEXs) are listing tokens too late in a post on X on Aug. 13.

He added that they’re becoming a “dumping ground for VCs,” and retail will learn sooner or later stop participating in this dynamic.

DEXs give retail traders a better chance to buy new tokens as they’re listed early, he said.
