How Do Centralized Exchanges (CEXs) Mitigate Rug Pull Risks?
CEXs employ rigorous listing standards, including extensive due diligence, team KYC, and code audits, before allowing a token to be traded. They act as gatekeepers, filtering out low-quality or scam projects.
Furthermore, they often manage the token's liquidity, making it much harder for a project team to execute a sudden, unauthorized withdrawal of funds.
