In today's post we'll be checking out some top decentralized cryptocurrency exchanges that I've come across and have used personally.
The exchanges are in order of personal preference.
Why decentralized?
Centralized exchanges like Binance have the inherent defect of controlling your funds. If they shut down in the future, the owner decides what to do with your funds.
Moreover, we've heard of exchanges being hacked and so it's pretty evident that we need better services.
Now, with the advent of new options, we have far greater freedom when it comes to choosing exchanges.

Was a shocker to see CryptoBridge shutdown, even though they claimed to be decentralized
I personally never used them, but Bisq is pretty sturdy in my opinion. And plus, there will always be new exchanges to use if one shuts down
