The few loud ignoramuses from `general` (in xx Discord) are of course MIA here, as composing an argument longer than 10 words is likely an insurmountable challenge.

Those who want to (and can) think may want to consider [1] which is what I’ve been saying for years:

> Customers shouldn’t need to know or care whether the trade is happening on a DEX or CEX.

It shouldn’t be hard to connect the dots here.

Homework for the ignoramuses from `general` (in xx Discord):

- what could be the reason permissionless DEX listings a concern for Coinbase?
- what does this mean for the cost and ease of listing on major US-based CEXes in coming months?
