I understand that a decentralized exchange, or DEX, operates without a central authority, allowing users to trade cryptocurrencies directly with each other. But, my question is, does the functionality of a DEX inherently rely on smart contracts? Could a DEX exist without utilizing smart contracts in some capacity? I'm curious about the underlying technology and how it contributes to the security, transparency, and efficiency of decentralized trading platforms.

By enabling users to execute trades directly from their wallets through smart contracts, DEXs eliminate the risks associated with entrusting funds to a third-party exchange.

Smart contracts, the backbone of DEXs, are self-executing agreements that automatically enforce the terms of a trade once certain conditions are met.

Decentralized exchanges (DEXs) represent a novel approach to cryptocurrency trading, leveraging smart contracts to facilitate peer-to-peer transactions without the need for a central authority or intermediary.
