Some of the most decentralized exchanges are bisq and hodlhodl.
If an exchange is decentralized but makes money off of the decentralized exchange transactions, is there an element of centralization for the exchange itself, if the addresses that collect the profits made, can be traced and the people behind those addresses are then leaned on to the point that they take down the exchange to avoid the wrath they face?
I am not sure exactly how many of them work as far as being paid from the decentralized exchange transactions that take place on those exchange websites.
