Estimate only. Advertised APYs vary with network conditions and can change; token price movements (up or down) are not included, and staking rewards are generally taxable income in Australia.

How staking rewards are calculated

Staking pays you a percentage yield (APY) for helping secure a proof-of-stake network. Without compounding, rewards are simply your amount × APY × time. With compounding, each reward is added to your stake so future rewards are earned on a slightly larger balance — which is why the effective yield is a touch higher than the headline APY.

Two things to remember

First, the AUD figures assume the token price stays flat — in reality your holding's value moves with the market. Second, in Australia staking rewards are generally treated as ordinary income at their value when you receive them, and a later sale is a separate CGT event. Many exchanges in our reviews offer staking directly.
