## Quote — verbatim

> Decentralized systems, when they embrace decentralization, end up building far superior user experiences than a centralized system. For example, Uniswap... It takes 30, 40 steps by the time you can swap an asset \[on Coinbase\]. Versus you come to Uniswap, you click, click, click, and you swap.
