Frequently asked questions

What is Staking APY?

Staking APY (Annual Percentage Yield) is the rate of return earned on your staked cryptocurrency over a year, taking into account the effect of compounding interest. Unlike APR (Annual Percentage Rate) which does not account for compounding, APY assumes you are continually reinvesting your rewards back into your staked balance.

Does compounding frequency matter?

Yes, but its impact diminishes as frequency increases. Compounding daily will yield more than compounding monthly because your rewards start earning their own rewards sooner. However, the difference between daily and hourly compounding is typically very small.

How does token price affect my returns?

When you stake crypto, you earn rewards in the form of more tokens. However, the true fiat value of your investment depends heavily on the price of the token. A high APY cannot overcome a massive drop in the token's price. This calculator allows you to model both the token growth and the future fiat value of your portfolio.
