Let’s make a prediction: the exchange wars in the second half of this year might revolve around DEXs. In the first half of this year, Binance caught its competitors off guard by directly leveraging wallets with Alpha. It completely crushed several wallets. This year, CZ is once again igniting competition in the DEX space. What many people don’t know is that Bybit has also been secretly developing a DEX, Byreal. It’s expected that OKX will gradually launch its own DEX as well. The three major exchanges are likely to regroup and compete in the DEX space. This year, I’ve invested in about 4 DEXs. The reason is simple: a good friend of mine recently had his accounts frozen, and his money was locked everywhere. Only by putting money in a DEX could he avoid such a disaster. Suddenly, I realized this is a real necessity—DEXs might see explosive growth. As for Aster, all I can say is that CZ is just too rich. He relies solely on pumping the market to push it to the top in terms of hype. Once it’s number one in market hype, its market share will also rise. Let’s keep waiting for the blessings Aster will bring.
