There's an inherent trade-off between decentralisation and computing price+performance, so it's likely that centralised exchanges will continue to be cheaper and faster for higher-frequency activities such as day trading, transaction processing, etc. Their utility for speculation decreases with harsher KYC/AML/accredited investor regulation, so it doesn't make sense for them to support that.

Notice how I only cited the first one (one time costs per customer) and not the other 2 :)
