  • CEX vs. DEX with Jan Kühne from BSDEX

    Do markets (still) need a centralized facilitator?


    Over the past year we have seen the rise of Decentralized Finance from an obscure and niche phenomenon to an industry worth more than $52 billion.

    Digital assets are traded in a trustless fashion and with large volumes. Markets are created, thrive and fizzle away within days or weeks.

    If you are still trying to come to terms with Crypto being an asset class worth $2 trillion, then DeFi might make you feel uneasy at first.


    Our founders Dr. Karl-Michael Henneking and Simon Schaber 夏商周 had the great pleasure of speaking with Jan Kühne, B2B Sales and Partnerships at Börse Stuttgart Digital Exchange on the differences, similarities, up- and downsides of centralized, high-trust and decentralized, trustless exchanges.
