How it works

Calculate cryptocurrency staking rewards with compound interest. Enter your staked amount, APY, compounding frequency, and duration to see total rewards and final balance.

Formula

Final Balance = Staked × (1 + APY/n)^(n×years)

Staked
Number of coins locked for staking
APY
Annual Percentage Yield as a decimal (e.g. 4.5% = 0.045)
n
Compounding periods per year (1 = annual, 12 = monthly, 365 = daily)
years
Duration of the staking period

Step by step

  1. 01Enter the number of coins you plan to stake.
  2. 02Enter the APY offered by your staking protocol or validator.
  3. 03Enter the current coin price in USD for a dollar-value estimate.
  4. 04Select the compounding frequency (most protocols compound daily or per-epoch).
  5. 05Set the duration in years.

Examples

32 ETH staked at 4.5% APY for 1 year

32 ETH staked at 4.5% APY yields about 1.44 ETH (~$4,320) over one year at annual compounding.

Inputs

Staked amount (coins):
32
Annual Percentage Yield (APY):
4.5
Coin price (USD):
3000
Compounding frequency:
annual
Duration (years):
1

Result

Total rewards (coins):
1.44
Rewards value (USD):
4320
Note: APY is not guaranteed — staking yields fluctuate with network participation rates, validator performance, and protocol changes. This calculator does not account for slashing risk, lock-up periods, or liquidity constraints. USD values are estimates based on the price you enter. Coin prices can change dramatically over the staking period.

Frequently asked questions

What is APY in crypto staking?

APY (Annual Percentage Yield) is the effective annual return including compound interest. A 4.5% APY means your staked balance grows by 4.5% over a year if rewards are compounded. APR (Annual Percentage Rate) excludes compounding — APY is always ≥ APR.

How often are staking rewards compounded?

It depends on the protocol. Ethereum consensus rewards are compounded roughly every epoch (~6.4 minutes) but most validators report APY assuming the rewards are restaked. DeFi pools often compound per block. Select 'daily' as a conservative estimate for most protocols.

What is slashing?

Slashing is a penalty applied when a validator behaves incorrectly (e.g. double-signing). A portion of the staked coins is burned. This calculator assumes no slashing events.
