Effective APY

With compounding, rewards are added back to the principal at the chosen frequency, so later rewards earn on top of earlier ones — this is what makes Effective APY higher than the stated APR. "None" pays simple interest with no compounding.

How staking rewards are calculated

APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the simple, non-compounded yearly rate a staking product advertises. If rewards are automatically restaked (or the underlying protocol compounds them for you, as with many rebasing or auto-compounding pools), your actual return is higher than the stated APR — that's the Effective APY this calculator shows. Choose "None" for products that pay a fixed reward at the end of a lock period without reinvesting it, or a compounding frequency (daily, weekly, monthly) that matches how often the protocol actually compounds. Longer lock periods and more frequent compounding both push the ending balance up for the same APR.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between APR and APY for staking?
APR is the simple annual rate with no compounding. APY (Annual Percentage Yield) accounts for compounding — reinvesting rewards so they also earn rewards — so APY is always equal to or higher than APR for the same rate, and the gap widens the more frequently rewards compound.
Should I pick a compounding frequency or "None"?
Pick the frequency that matches how the staking product actually pays out. Many liquid-staking and auto-compounding pools effectively compound daily. Fixed-term staking products that pay a lump reward only at the end of the lock, with nothing reinvested along the way, should use "None" (simple interest).
Does a longer lock period always mean more reward?
Yes, for the same APR — more days means more time for interest (and compounding, if enabled) to accrue. But a longer lock also means your capital is committed for longer and can't respond to a change in market conditions or a better opportunity, which is the trade-off against the higher reward.
