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.

How AMM Liquidity Pools Work: The Complete Guide

Automated market makers replaced order books in DeFi. Understanding how AMM liquidity pools work helps you earn yield, avoid impermanent loss, and trade smarter.

Automated market makers (AMMs) use mathematical formulas — not order books — to set prices. The most famous: x × y = k (Uniswap V2). This constant product formula ensures there is always liquidity at any price, but the relationship between price and depth is non-linear.

How Liquidity Pools Work

Liquidity providers (LPs) deposit pairs of tokens — say ETH and USDC — into a pool smart contract. Traders swap against the pool, paying a 0.05–1% fee. That fee is distributed proportionally to LPs. The pool price adjusts automatically to reflect each trade.

Concentrated Liquidity (Uniswap V3 and Beyond)

V3-style AMMs let LPs concentrate liquidity within a price range. A $10,000 position concentrated between $3,000–$4,000 ETH earns the same fees as $200,000 in a full-range V2 position — if the price stays in range. When price moves out of range, the LP stops earning fees and holds only the underperforming asset.

Types of AMM Pools

Constant product (x*y=k): Uniswap, SushiSwap — general purpose
Stableswap: Curve Finance — optimized for like-assets (USDC/USDT)
Weighted pools: Balancer — custom token ratios (80/20)
Concentrated: Uniswap V3, Ambient — capital efficient, active management needed

Key Risks for Liquidity Providers

Impermanent loss is the main LP risk: when prices diverge, your LP position is worth less than simply holding the tokens. The deeper in-range your position, the higher the fee APR, but also the faster you accumulate IL on sharp moves. Always model the IL breakeven at your expected fee APR before providing liquidity.
