Decentralized exchanges seem to be an inevitable step for bitcoin. Problem is, centralized exchanges like coinba are making millions. They have a lot to lose if decentralized exchanges take over.. So, I think that we will start to see centralized exchanges like coinbase fighting to maintain "control" in a similar fashion to how banks and governments are doing with bitcoin in general. Thoughts?
It doesn't matter, what can they to do stop decentralized solutions to begin spreading? They can only improve their services, which would be good for their customers. This world is already based on competition in so many areas. We need (fiat) banks (we still do, don't fool yourselves), but we don't need centralized exchanges if decentralized ones actually do offer the same capabilities!
