Automated crypto trading bots
Gunbot

Decentralized exchanges (DEXs)
Totle Swap
Totle aggregates decentralized exchanges and synthetic asset providers into a suite of tools that makes it easy to access deep liquidity for DeFi assets at the best price. Essentially, Totle will split up an order into a number of orders on multiple DEXs and trade pairs via a smart order router to ensure that you’re getting the best possible price when buying an asset on a DEX. Totle Swap is their web app that lets you submit orders across DEXs.
Price: Free, their main revenue is through selling access to their Totle API to application developers.
Bisq
Bisq is an open-source, peer-to-peer application that allows you to buy and sell cryptocurrencies in exchange for national currencies. No registration required. Bisq isn’t a tool like the other things on this list, it’s a full-fledged decentralized exchange. It merits its own mention because it allows users to connect their bank accounts and trade fiat (like USD) for Bitcoin. Most DEXs are only between ETH and ETH tokens, so having the option to trade right from your bank account to Bitcoin on a truly decentralized exchange is a great change of pace.
Price: Free, although you do pay trading fees.
