DEX stands for Decentralized Exchange. There are mainly two types of exchanges are available in market Centralized and Decentralized. In centralized it is fully managed by a single person or team of persons, it includes your funds too. But in Decentralized it is not managed by any person or no one can change or touch any user’s account or funds.

Note: Never share your Private Key of wallet or Password or PIN. Even if he is your friend, a big company owner (scammers may contact you by saying he is the owner of this or that company). Also sometimes you may face an issue with your funds or accounts on exchanges and you may try to reach the support team through the various method and it is possible scammers contact you by saying he can help you. Simply ignore his message because he may share links includes viruses, phishing sites, ask for private Keys.
