How staking rewards are calculated
At a simple rate, staking rewards are just amount × APR × years. When rewards are restaked, they compound: amount × ((1 + APR / n)^(n × years) − 1), where n is how often you compound. Over long horizons, compounding meaningfully increases the total.
Most staking yields are not fixed, they float with network participation, inflation schedules and fees, so the APR you enter is a snapshot rather than a guarantee. Treat the projection as an estimate at today's rate.
Staking also carries lock-up or unbonding periods, possible slashing, and price volatility on the staked token. Otomato monitors the positions you actually hold and alerts you when something material changes.
The complete guide
How staking rewards are calculated
At a simple rate, staking rewards are amount times APR times years. If you restake your rewards so they start earning too, they compound: amount times ((1 + APR / n) to the power (n times years), minus 1), where n is how often you compound. Over multi-year horizons the compounded figure pulls clearly ahead of the simple one.
The calculator lets you toggle compounding off, daily or monthly so you can see exactly how much restaking adds for your rate and horizon.
Staking APR is a moving target
Most staking yields are not fixed. They move with how much of the supply is staked, the network's inflation schedule and the fees validators collect.
- More total stake usually means a lower yield per staker.
- Fee revenue during busy periods can lift the effective rate.
- The APR you enter is a snapshot, so treat the projection as an estimate.
The risks behind the yield
Depending on the asset, staking can involve lock-up or unbonding periods where you cannot sell, slashing penalties if a validator misbehaves, and price volatility on the staked token that can dwarf the yield. Otomato monitors the positions you actually hold and flags changes that matter, so the yield is not the only thing you are watching.
Frequently asked questions
- How are staking rewards calculated?
- At a simple rate, rewards = amount × APR × years. If rewards are restaked (compounded), it becomes amount × ((1 + APR/n)^(n × years) − 1), where n is how often you compound. Compounding meaningfully increases the total over long horizons.
- Is the staking APR fixed?
- No. Most staking yields float with network participation, inflation schedules and fees. The quoted APR is a snapshot, not a guarantee, and it can drift over months. Treat the projection as an estimate at the current rate.
- What risks come with staking?
- Depending on the asset there can be lock-up or unbonding periods, slashing for validator faults, and price volatility on the staked token that can outweigh the yield. Otomato monitors the positions you actually hold and flags changes that matter.
