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.

Global Crypto Regulation 2026: Every Major Country's Rules

Crypto regulation varies wildly — from El Salvador's Bitcoin legal tender to China's ban. This overview covers the regulatory status of crypto in every major market.

The global regulatory patchwork for crypto is the single biggest challenge for the industry. Some countries welcome it, others ban it, most regulate it selectively. Understanding where your jurisdiction stands determines your tax obligations and legal access to platforms.

Crypto-Friendly Jurisdictions

UAE/Dubai: VARA framework, zero income tax, 0% CGT — most crypto-friendly major economy
Switzerland: "Crypto Valley" in Zug, clear token law, self-custody fully legal
Singapore: MAS regulation with operational clarity, 0% CGT for personal holdings
El Salvador: Bitcoin legal tender (though IMF pressure may modify this)

Regulated but Accessible

EU (MiCA): comprehensive licensing framework, exchanges must comply, DeFi largely unaffected
UK: FCA registration required for exchanges, CGT applies, consumer protections active
Australia: ATO capital gains treatment, ASIC oversight of crypto investment products
Japan: FSA-regulated exchange licensing, very clear but strict consumer protection rules

Restrictive or Banning Jurisdictions

China: complete ban on crypto trading and mining (VPN usage persists)
India: high taxation (30%) effectively penalizing active trading
Egypt, Bangladesh: outright crypto bans, though enforcement is limited
Russia: exchanges banned but holding and mining permitted under new rules

What This Means for Self-Custody DeFi

Self-custodial DeFi protocols that are not legal entities in any jurisdiction are extremely difficult to regulate. Most regulatory frameworks focus on centralized entities with identifiable operators. Pure P2P DeFi protocols have largely been left unregulated in practice, even in jurisdictions with strict exchange rules.
