What is a DeFi aggregator?

A DeFi aggregator is a platform that routes your crypto swaps across hundreds of decentralised exchanges (DEXes) simultaneously to find the best rate and lowest slippage. Instead of trading on a single DEX like Uniswap, an aggregator like Steyble splits your trade across multiple pools and chains to maximise your output.

What is a crypto super app?

A crypto super app is a single non-custodial platform that combines every DeFi service — token swapping, staking, perpetuals trading, prediction markets, copy trading, cross-chain bridging, and crypto cards — in one interface. Steyble is a crypto super app, meaning you never need to switch between multiple DeFi applications.

Is Steyble self-custodial?

Yes. Steyble is entirely non-custodial and self-custodial. You hold your private keys at all times. Steyble provides the interface and smart contract routing, but never holds, controls, or has access to your assets. Every transaction requires your explicit wallet signature.

How do prediction markets work in crypto?

Crypto prediction markets let you buy or sell shares in the outcome of real-world events using on-chain smart contracts. If you buy a 'Yes' share at $0.35, you receive $1 if the event occurs (a $0.65 profit) or lose $0.35 if it does not. Markets cover crypto prices, elections, sports results, and macro events. Steyble's prediction markets are non-custodial — your funds remain in your wallet until settlement.

What are perpetual futures in crypto?

Perpetual futures (perps) are leveraged crypto trading contracts with no expiry date. Unlike traditional futures that expire monthly, perps let you hold long or short positions indefinitely. A periodic funding rate keeps the perp price aligned with spot. Steyble perpetuals run on decentralised smart contracts — you trade directly from your own wallet with full transparency into liquidation parameters.

How does copy trading work on Steyble?

Copy trading on Steyble automatically mirrors the on-chain trades of verified top-performing wallet strategies. You choose the wallets you want to copy, set your position sizing and risk limits, and Steyble replicates their trades in real time. Unlike centralised copy trading, Steyble is non-custodial — you never give up control of your funds.

What is the best way to earn passive income with crypto in 2026?

The best methods for passive crypto income in 2026 are: (1) liquid staking ETH or SOL at 3.5–8% APY, (2) lending stablecoins on lending protocols at 5–9% APY, (3) non-custodial copy trading to mirror proven wallet strategies, (4) providing liquidity to stablecoin pools at 3–6% APY, and (5) on-chain prediction markets for event-driven returns. Steyble provides access to all five methods in a single platform.

What is the best DEX aggregator in 2026?

The best DEX aggregators in 2026 route across 15+ blockchains and 100+ liquidity sources with MEV protection. Steyble's swap aggregator covers 250+ liquidity sources across Ethereum, Solana, Arbitrum, Base, and more — consistently delivering better rates than going directly to any single DEX. For large swaps, using an aggregator saves 0.5–2% per transaction.

Crypto Index Funds: How to Get Diversified Crypto Exposure Passively

Instead of picking individual coins, crypto index funds provide exposure to a basket of top assets. Here is how they work and the best options in 2026.

Crypto index funds provide automated exposure to a basket of cryptocurrencies, rebalancing periodically to maintain target weights. They solve the core problem of individual coin selection — how do you choose between hundreds of projects? — by providing diversification across the top assets.

Types of Crypto Index Products

Traditional index funds: Bitwise 10 Crypto Index Fund (BITW), Grayscale Digital Large Cap Fund
ETF-style products: Bitcoin ETF (BlackRock IBIT), Ethereum ETF available in most markets by 2026
On-chain index tokens: DeFi-based products like DeFi Pulse Index or BTC+ETH 50/50 on-chain
Manual portfolio: build your own "index" of BTC + ETH + 3-5 L1s and rebalance quarterly
Steyble portfolio: set target allocations for BTC, ETH, and stablecoins, auto-rebalance via app

Pros and Cons of Crypto Index Funds

Pro: automatic diversification across top assets, no selection required
Pro: rebalancing forces buy-low-sell-high mechanically
Pro: less monitoring required vs individual coin selection
Con: management fees (Bitwise BITW: 2.5% annually) eat into returns
Con: includes assets that underperform in bear markets — BTC-heavy allocation would have done better in 2022

The Simple Alternative

For most investors, a simple BTC/ETH/USDC allocation managed through Steyble is more cost-effective than a dedicated crypto index fund. Set targets (e.g., 50% BTC, 30% ETH staked, 20% USDC yield), rebalance quarterly via Steyble swap at minimal cost, and earn staking yield on ETH. This "DIY index" outperforms most paid index products after fees while providing more flexibility.
