Staking rewards = Amount × (APY/365) × Days. APYs range from 3% (ETH) to 100%+ (risky protocols).
1,000 ETH at 4% APY for 1 year = 40 ETH earned.
High APY (50%+) often means high inflation or high risk — evaluate tokenomics.
This tool is essential for comparing trades across different assets, fee structures, or holding periods. The annualised return figure puts short and long-duration trades on the same scale for fair comparison.
A common mistake is confusing gross return with annualised return. A 60% gain sounds impressive until you factor in it took 4 years — which is an annualised CAGR of about 12.9%, useful context for comparing against other investments.
An investor compares a 6-month crypto return of 45% against the annual return on a stock portfolio of 22%. Using the annualised CAGR mode reveals the crypto position generated approximately 105% annualised — context that makes the comparison meaningful.
It depends on APY, token price trend, and lock-up period. ETH staking at ~4% APY is considered low-risk DeFi yield.
