MSGSENDER - A UNIQUE BLEND OF CEX AND DEX

The crypto world has grown spontaneously overtime with most transactions going on through exchanges.
While a lot of users especially starters prefer using the centralized exchange (CEX) platforms, others prefer rather to use the decentralised Exchanges (DEX).
These exchange mediums all have their peculiar characteristics that attracts users to them and this article would shed light on these peculiarities while highlighting the MSGSENDER an exchange that merges most of the outstanding features of the CEX in its DEX.

What are the characteristics of CEX

The CEX is an acronym for Centralized Exchange, these exchanges such as Binance are trading platforms that matches buyers to seller via order books while controlling the funds of the users. This implies that the users funds are domiciled in the exchange and only released to the user at the point of withdrawal and the security of users fund lies on the exchange and in the case of a security breach such as a hack, users could lose their funds as well as their personal information which are gotten in the process of verifications on the platforms.

The CEX platforms also provides other significant features such as liquidity trading which allows users to cost-effectively convert assets into cash.
Another major characteristics of the CEX that makes it endearing are their user interface which are user friendly and makes them very easy to be understood by trading starters.

What are the characteristics of the DEX

The DEX on the other hand which stands for Decentralised Exchanges are trading platform that allows users to have control over their funds and do not put the users at risk of loosing their funds in any hack occurrence, or their personal information as DEX platforms do not collect personal information of users for verification as the user is completely responsible for the security of their funds, and only are only required to keep the phrase associated to their wallet safe.

The Decentralised Exchanges also offer their users access to DeFi and NFT projects which are the major frontiers in the blockchain space.

However, most Decentralised Exchanges only allow operations on their site and not on apps using third party wallets, and even those on apps have interfaces that are not as convenient as compared to the CEX

MSGSENDER - The bridge

Msg Sender is a Decentralised application that allows users to interact with decentralised Exchanges (DEX) by integrating cross-chain wallets with an improved user interface for trading and liquidity providing, which helps create a user experience that is similar to CEX products. It provides easy pair selection and charts for all pair on Pancake and other DEX on Binance Smart Chain.

The application has the following:

Integrated DEX & wallet function

Additionally, LP tokens are highlighted and related pairs are displayed for a smooth user experience. It also supports all tokens on BSC and Ethereum, giving the user a wide variety of choice.

User-Friendly Interface
