Decentralized Crypto Exchanges Struggle

Following high-profile market failures, peer-to-peer trading platforms emerged as a potential alternative to centralised exchanges.

Uniswap, PancakeSwap, Balancer, and dYdX are among the top DeFiLlama DEXs in terms of dollar value locked on the protocols. Uniswap has a market share of roughly 60%. The failure of FTX, one of the major centralised exchanges, provided additional fuel to these decentralised platforms.

According to Kaiko data, monthly spot trade volumes have significantly decreased. DEX volumes fell 76% to $21 billion in June this year compared to January 2022.

Centralised exchanges, on the other hand, had a 69% reduction while maintaining a considerable volume of $429 billion. The market share of peer-to-peer digital-asset platforms dwindled to 5% from a peak of 7% achieved in March 2023 based on Kaiko data.

Crypto proponents advocate self-custody as trust in centralized entities declines with bankruptcies. Decentralized platforms face issues like complex interfaces, slower transaction speeds, and lower liquidity, while compliance remains challenging due to evolving regulatory landscape.
