Crypto Staking Calculator
Enter your staking amount, APY and lock-up period to calculate daily, monthly and annual staking rewards. Compares simple vs compound staking returns. Supports any token with custom APY input.
Crypto Staking Calculator — Coming Soon
We are building a 100% client-side interface for this tool. In the meantime, use the formula below.
📐 How to calculate staking manually
Simple Rewards: Principal × (APY / 100)
Daily Reward: (Principal × (APY / 100)) / 365
Example: 1 ETH at 5% APY = 0.05 ETH per year.
The SolveBar Crypto Staking Calculator computes your daily, monthly and annual staking rewards for any token. Enter your staking amount and APY to see both simple and compound staking returns side by side.
What is crypto staking?
Staking means locking your crypto tokens in a network to help validate transactions. In return, you earn staking rewards — similar to interest. Proof-of-stake networks like Ethereum, Solana, Cardano and Polkadot all offer staking rewards.
Simple vs compound staking
Simple staking pays rewards without reinvesting them. Compound staking automatically adds rewards back to your stake, which then earns its own rewards. Compounding significantly increases total return over time.
APY vs APR
APR (Annual Percentage Rate) is the simple annual return without compounding. APY (Annual Percentage Yield) accounts for compound interest and is always higher than APR. Most staking platforms advertise APY. The calculator shows both.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a good staking APY?
It varies by network and market conditions. Ethereum staking currently offers 3–5% APY. Solana offers 6–8%. Newer or smaller networks often offer higher APY but with higher risk. Always research the token's fundamentals.
Is staking income taxable?
In most countries, staking rewards are treated as ordinary income at the time of receipt, based on the token's value when received. Consult a crypto tax professional for advice specific to your jurisdiction.
Does lock-up period affect returns?
Lock-up periods do not change the APY but they do affect your ability to sell if prices drop. Higher-APY stakes often have longer lock-ups — factor in the price risk over the lock-up period.
