About this data
Updated Sep 2026Figures are shown as the source publishes them, and anything we calculate is explained below. How the data is made Report an error General information, not financial advice.
How the calculator works
- Staking: tokens after t years = amount × (1 + APY)t, with every reward staked again
- Restaking: each year's extra = restaking yield × the staked balance that year, paid on top
- Value: everything at today's price
The per-day, per-week, per-month and per-year figures are the first year's rewards at today's price. Any rate works: type your own, or pick a live one from the table.
APY and APR
APY is what a year of staking adds when every reward is staked again straight away. APR is the
same rewards without that compounding. Liquid staking tokens such as
stETH and
JitoSOL compound for
you, so their quoted rate is an APY, and the calculator compounds every staking reward.
At 2.3%, the gap between the two is about 0.03% a year. At 20% it is about 2% a year, so compounding matters far more on high rates.
Restaking yield
Restaking puts staked tokens, or a liquid staking token such as stETH, into a restaking protocol
such as
EigenLayer or
Symbiotic. The protocol pays extra rewards for helping to secure other networks.
Those rewards are often paid in other tokens or in points, so the calculator adds them on top and does not compound them. Restaking also adds risk: the restaked stake can be slashed by the other networks as well.
Where the rates come from
Each rate is the recent growth of the provider's staking token, annualised. It is measured after the provider takes its fee, so it is what a holder of the token actually earns. The rates refresh every ten minutes.
Rates change with network activity. On
Ethereum, busy weeks pay more in transaction fees to
stakers, and a rising number of stakers spreads the same rewards more thinly. The 30-day average
in the live rates table is a steadier guide than the rate on any one day.
What can go wrong
- Price: Rewards are paid in the token. A price fall larger than the rewards leaves you with fewer dollars than you started with, however many tokens you earned.
- Slashing: Validators that break the network's rules lose part of their stake. Large providers spread stake across many operators, which makes a large loss unlikely.
- Getting out: Unstaking can take days or weeks when the exit queue is long. Selling the liquid staking token instead can mean taking a small discount to the underlying token.
- Smart contracts: A liquid staking token is a contract. A bug in it can put the whole deposit at risk.
Questions
How much can I earn staking crypto?
At today's rates, staking pays about 2 to 3% a year on
ETH and about 5 to 7% on
SOL, paid in
the token. On $10,000 of ETH at 2.3%, that is about $230 in the first year at an unchanged price.
Are staking rewards paid daily?
On
Ethereum, rewards build up every few minutes and a liquid staking token takes them in about
once a day.
Solana pays at the end of each epoch, which is roughly every two days. The daily figure
here spreads a year of rewards evenly across the days.
Does compounding make a big difference?
Over a few years at a low rate, very little. $10,000 at 2.3% for five years earns about $1,204 compounded and about $1,137 without compounding. The gap widens with higher rates and longer periods.
Can I lose money staking?
Yes. The rewards are in the token, so a price fall can outweigh them. The calculator shows how far the price can fall before your stake is worth less than you put in.
