Tigran Akhunts, Head of P2P Business at Huobi HTX CIS: CEX is accelerating its evolution and continues to narrow the conceptual gap with DEX

Mars Finance News: Tigran Akhunts, P2P Business Head of HTX CIS Region, was invited to attend the Blockchain Forum 2025 roundtable forum on the theme "DEX vs CEX: Who Will Win the Traders' Battle?". He pointed out that CEX has obvious advantages in user experience, security, and meeting diverse trading needs. While DEX excels in decentralization, it faces limitations such as high gas fees, slow trading speed, and dispersed liquidity. He believes that CEX and DEX are not a zero-sum game, but coexist by serving different user needs. Tigran Akhunts also noted that currently, CEX is narrowing the ideological gap with DEX by integrating DeFi functions, adopting reserve proof, and implementing third-party audits to enhance platform transparency. Additionally, CEX continues to innovate in AI trading tools, cross-chain support, and fee optimization to improve overall trading experience and consolidate its core position among mainstream traders.
