  1. Defx Platform Overview

Self-Custodial

Defx operates as a self-custodial exchange, ensuring you maintain complete control over your digital assets at all times. Your assets remain securely in your wallet, safeguarded by your private keys, significantly mitigating the risks associated with centralized custody. This model empowers you to manage and protect your assets independently, providing a heightened level of security and autonomy that centralized exchanges cannot offer. By eliminating reliance on third-party custodians, DEFX enhances the security and integrity of your trading experience.
