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.

Decentralised Options Trading: DeFi Derivatives in 2026

On-chain options protocols let you hedge, generate income, or speculate on crypto prices without a centralised counterparty. Here is how they work.

Crypto options have traditionally been traded on centralised platforms (Deribit, CME). Decentralised options protocols now offer the same functionality without counterparty risk — your options are settled by smart contracts, not by a company that could become insolvent or freeze your account.

How Decentralised Options Work

Protocols like Lyra, Dopex, and Hegic pool liquidity for writing options on-chain
Option buyers pay a premium to the pool — similar to traditional options
Settlement at expiry is automatic via smart contract — no intermediary
Liquidity providers earn premiums from option buyers — but carry short-option risk
On-chain options are typically for shorter durations (daily to monthly) due to gas and liquidity constraints

Use Cases for Retail Traders

Covered calls: earn premium on BTC/ETH holdings — sell upside for yield
Protective puts: buy downside protection on your holdings
Call buying: leveraged bullish exposure with defined maximum loss (premium paid)
Put buying: profit from price decline with defined maximum loss
Structured products: protocols that bundle options strategies for specific yield/protection goals

Current State of Decentralised Options

Decentralised options remain less liquid and more expensive than Deribit in 2026, but the ecosystem is maturing. The key advantage: no KYC, no withdrawal restrictions, no counterparty insolvency risk. For institutional-scale options activity, Deribit remains dominant. For retail users wanting basic covered-call strategies to generate yield on held ETH and BTC, decentralised options on Steyble provide accessible entry.
