What is the best crypto trading strategy for beginners?

Beginners should start with dollar-cost averaging (DCA) into established assets like Bitcoin and Ethereum. Avoid leverage, copy-trading expensive influencers, or short-term technical trades until you have studied the market for at least 6 months. Most active traders lose money to fees and bad timing.

What are perpetual futures (perps)?

Perpetual futures are leveraged contracts with no expiry date. You can hold long or short positions indefinitely. A periodic funding rate keeps the perp price aligned with the spot market. Perps offer leverage up to 50x or higher but carry liquidation risk — small price moves can wipe out your collateral.

How do I avoid losing money trading crypto?

Use risk management: never risk more than 1–2% of your portfolio per trade, set stop-losses, avoid revenge trading, and size positions based on volatility. Most importantly, only trade with money you can afford to lose entirely. Keep most of your portfolio in long-term holdings.

What does MEV protection mean in a DEX?

MEV (Maximal Extractable Value) is profit extracted by bots that front-run, sandwich, or back-run user transactions. MEV protection routes orders through private mempools or specialised relays so bots cannot see and exploit them. Steyble's swap aggregator includes MEV protection by default.

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?

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.

Steyble Perps: Non-Custodial Leverage Trading Explained

Steyble Perps lets you trade perpetual contracts with up to 50x leverage without giving up custody of your funds. Here is how it works.

Perpetual futures are the most traded instrument in crypto with daily volumes exceeding $50 billion. Most perps trading happens on centralised exchanges (Binance, Bybit, OKX) that require you to deposit funds, completing KYC, and trust the exchange with your collateral. Steyble Perps removes all three requirements.

How Non-Custodial Perps Work

Your USDC collateral is held in an audited smart contract — not on a central server
Positions are opened and closed on-chain, fully transparent
Liquidations are handled by the smart contract, not a customer service team
No KYC required: connect wallet, deposit collateral, trade
Steyble smart contracts audited by top security firms — audit reports publicly available

Key Features of Steyble Perps

Up to 50x leverage on BTC, ETH, and 100+ pairs
TP/SL, trailing stops, and portfolio margin supported
Cross-margin and isolated margin modes
Competitive funding rates, aligned with major CEX benchmark prices
On-chain oracle price feeds from Pyth and Chainlink for manipulation resistance

Risk Management on Steyble Perps

Leverage amplifies both gains and losses. At 10x leverage, a 10% adverse price move wipes your entire position. Before trading perps, understand your liquidation price (shown before you submit each trade) and use position sizing that limits any single trade to 1–2% of your total account. Steyble's risk calculator shows the exact liquidation price for any collateral and leverage combination.
