Can you buy Bitcoin on a DEX?
Asked 4 years ago
Is it possible to buy and trade BTC between crypto traders on a DEX? I was originally using a CEX, but I'm considering moving over. What do you think?

Yes, you can buy Bitcoin on a DEX. In essence, DEXs are meant for trading digital assets on a peer-to-peer basis, without intermediaries verifying transactions. The good thing with DEXs is that you don’t need to sign up or upload your personal documents to qualify for trading. This is how you can buy Bitcoin and other crypto on a DEX:
- Download a web3 wallet, like Coinbase Wallet
- Choose your wallet username
- Securely store your private keys
- Fund your wallet with coins you will use to buy BTC
- Proceed to a DEX, like UniSwap and connect it with your wallet
- Buy BTC on the DEX by swapping other currencies with it
