True for ETH; not necessarily for faster chains.

The future of Dexes lies solely in Layer2.
Layer1 Dexes are either too uneconomical or too centralized.

Still waiting to see a scalable layer1 blockchain that is not tending towards centralization.

Totally agree. There’s a clear trade-off between scalability, security and decentralisation...

Scaling layer 1 implies increasing attack surface. Which increases big investors/capital/value scepticism. You can counter this with centralisation (like EOS?), but the whole point of “decentralisation” is lost. So layer 2 scaling looks best to me atm. Happy to be proven wrong!

explain more what you mean by the attack surface
Don’t want to sound like a maxi, but they do seem right to me on this point. Fewer people validating the ledger implies increased attack surface. Just coz larger the ledger, fewer people able to validate it...
