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.

DeFi Insurance: How to Protect Your Crypto From Smart Contract Risks

Smart contract exploits have stolen billions from DeFi users. DeFi insurance protocols now let you cover your positions. Here is how they work.

DeFi has lost over $10 billion to smart contract exploits, hacks, and protocol failures since 2020. DeFi insurance protocols allow users to purchase coverage against specific risks — smart contract bugs, stablecoin depegs, oracle manipulation — paying a premium for protection. It is an emerging but increasingly important layer of the DeFi stack.

How DeFi Insurance Works

Purchase coverage from protocols like Nexus Mutual, InsurAce, or Neptune Mutual
Coverage is specific: you cover "$10,000 in Aave USDC lending pool for 90 days"
If the covered protocol is exploited during your coverage period, you file a claim
Claims are evaluated by the protocol's risk assessors (token holders)
Premium: typically 1-5% annually depending on protocol risk level

What DeFi Insurance Covers and Does Not Cover

Covers: smart contract exploits, hacks of covered protocols, stablecoin depegs (on some protocols)
Does not cover: your own private key loss, rug pulls (team abandonment), market price decline
Nexus Mutual: community-governed, NXM staking for risk assessment, large established pools
InsurAce: wider protocol coverage, multi-chain, institutional-grade
Neptune Mutual: parametric — predefined conditions trigger payout, no claims process required

Is DeFi Insurance Worth It?

For allocations above $10,000 in any single DeFi protocol, insurance is worth considering. At 2-3% annual premium, insuring a $50,000 position costs $1,000-1,500/year — a fraction of the potential loss from an exploit. For Steyble-integrated protocols, the risk is mitigated by our focus on audited blue-chip protocols. But insurance adds an additional layer for large positions that nothing else can replicate.
