However, Alex Svanevik, CEO and co-founder of Nansen, argues that AI is not a substitute for human judgment, but rather an augmentation. So, basically, AI is just a fancy tool that helps us do our jobs… better? Please. If I had a nickel for every time someone said that, I’d be rich. But hey, at least it’s not replacing us, right?

With perp DEXs continuing to siphon a growing share of derivatives activity, the question looms: will this evolution reshape the trading landscape, or is it merely a fleeting tempest? BeInCrypto, that paragon of journalistic rigor, engaged in a discourse with the esteemed Vugar Usi Zade, COO of MEXC, to probe the question: do these perp DEXs, with their tantalizing allure, present a genuine threat to the venerable citadels of centralized exchanges, and what does this evolution portend for their enduring supremacy?
