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

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.
