🧒 5歳でもわかるように説明

[CEX](/ja/terms/cex)は銀行と証券取引所を合わせたもので、暗号資産版です。ビットコインを預けると(彼らが保管)、その取引プラットフォームで売買できます。問題は:もし『銀行』が破産したら、お金がなくなるかもしれません。2022年のFTXで実際に起きたことです。

🤓 Expert Deep Dive

CEXは中央指値注文板(CLOB)を使用します。マーカーは流動性を追加し(手数料低)、テイカーは取り除きます。FTX後、取引所はMerkleツリーベースのPoRを公開。AML/KYC規制遵守が必要。

❓ よくある質問

What is the main risk of using a CEX?

Custodial risk: you do not control your private keys. If the exchange is hacked, goes bankrupt (like FTX in 2022), or freezes withdrawals, you may lose access to your funds.

What is Proof-of-Reserves?

A Proof-of-Reserves (PoR) is a cryptographic attestation that a CEX actually holds the assets it claims to hold for users. After FTX collapsed, it became a standard practice for exchanges to publish Merkle-tree-based PoR reports. However, PoR only proves assets, not liabilities.

What is the difference between a maker and a taker on a CEX?

A market maker places a limit order that sits on the order book, adding liquidity. A taker executes against an existing order, removing liquidity. Makers typically pay lower fees than takers.
