Vitalik Buterin, famed as a genius, has achieved “outstanding contributions to cryptocurrency”
The genius Vitalik Buterin was awarded a doctorate by the Faculty of Business and Economics at the University of Basel in Switzerland, and he explains the reasons as follows.

The problems pointed out by Vitalik Buterin with “centralized exchanges” are that they have too much influence over cryptocurrencies,and the solution isDEX (decentralized exchanges).A decentralized exchangewould address this.
Problems of Centralized Cryptocurrency Exchanges
According to Vitalik Buterin, the problems of centralized exchanges include,
the exchanges have the power to decide which cryptocurrencies become “big”
.
For example, cryptocurrencies or tokens listed on famous exchanges gain recognition from users worldwide as “tradeable,” increasing trading volumes.
To be listed on a cryptocurrency exchange, certain criteria are set, and meeting all of them isthe listing condition, but those “criteria” are not publicly disclosed and remain opaque.
In other words, because the criteria for listing are opaque, centralized cryptocurrency exchanges may freely choose which cryptocurrencies to list (to make them “big”).
Additionally, Buterin criticizes the practice of setting listing fees in the billions of dollars as a condition for listing.

What is a DEX (Decentralized Exchange)?
When asked to define a DEX as a means to resolve cryptocurrency exchanges, Vitalik Buterin describes it as a one-liner: a “cryptocurrency exchange that can operate without a central administrator.”
The details are omitted, but in a DEX, users themselves manage their own assets such as the necessary “private keys,” which distributes custody and reduces the risk of large-scale hacking incidents.
Currently, most cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide are centralized, but the attention to DEXs—exchanges without a central administrator—is gradually rising.
In fact, major exchange Binance has announced the establishment of a DEX (Decentralized Exchange) in the future.
