Crypto Staking Yield
A precise tool.
What is the Crypto Staking Yield & How does it work?
Staking is the process of locking up cryptocurrency to support a blockchain network, which in turn rewards stakers with additional tokens as an incentive for securing the network.
The Annual Percentage Rate (APR) represents the simple interest earned over one year without considering compounding. The Annual Percentage Yield (APY), on the other hand, takes into account the effect of compounding and provides a more accurate representation of the return on investment.
APY = left(1 + frac{APR}{n}right)^n – 1
var = meaning
n = number of compounding periods per year
