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.

Ethereum Gas Fees: How to Reduce Costs and Choose the Right Time to Transact

Ethereum gas fees can make small transactions uneconomical. This guide covers how gas pricing works, the best times to transact, and how L2s make ETH accessible for all transaction sizes.

Ethereum gas fees have been the biggest barrier to small-value DeFi participation. While L2s have dramatically reduced this problem, understanding gas mechanics on mainnet remains important for larger transactions and contract deployments.

How Ethereum Gas Works (EIP-1559)

Base fee: the minimum fee per unit of gas; set by the protocol based on network demand
Priority tip: additional tip to validators to prioritize your transaction
Gas limit: maximum gas units your transaction can consume
Total fee = (base fee + priority tip) × gas used

When Gas Is Cheapest

Weekends, especially Saturday and Sunday UTC: European and US trading is lower
Late night UTC (2–6 AM): US and European users asleep, Asia not yet peak
Ethereum gas tracker (etherscan.io/gastracker): shows current and predicted gas
Set transactions to "slow" for non-urgent operations — save 30–50% with 10-20 minute delay

The L2 Solution

Arbitrum, Optimism, and Base process Ethereum transactions at $0.001–$0.01 compared to $5–$50 on mainnet. For transactions below $5,000, using an L2 is almost always more economical. Steyble's cross-chain routing automatically routes smaller trades through the optimal L2 to minimize all-in transaction costs.
