26 - The History of Crypto Exchanges; Centralized vs Decentralized

On this week's episode of Sometimes Crypto, the Bois go over the short history and evolution of crypto currency exchanges and how “Magic the Gathering” had a role in the matter. We cover the early crypto exchanges; and differentiate the difference between the centralized and decentralized exchanges that exist in the market right now. We also speculate about the burden that centralized exchanges have to deal with now after the whole FTX. Bois closes the episode with whether or not exchanges will offer direct deposit like coinbase and others and will they ever be able to accept checks.  

PSA, Don’t forget we will be hosting another Sometimes Crypto event on 03/13/2023 for any local community members that are interested in learning about crypto in a social setting. We will be helping you guys set up your first crypto wallets and explore the best blockchain for you. The link to the event will be below
