Results

Primary outputs and comparison insights are built from the current inputs.

Simple reward

$400.00

Reward estimate using simple, non-compounded yield.

Compounded balance

$5,415.00

Ending balance if rewards compound monthly at the stated APY.

Avg monthly reward

$34.58

Average monthly reward implied by the compounded result.

How this calculator works

The Crypto Staking Yield Calculator estimates simple rewards and a monthly compounded ending balance so you can compare staking offers more clearly. Enter principal, apy, and months to estimate simple reward, compounded balance, and avg monthly reward. The calculator updates instantly and adds a comparison table plus chart so you can test the sensitivity of the result before you use it in a decision.

Inputs

Capital committed to the staking position.
Annual percentage yield advertised by the staking program.
Length of the staking period in months.

Outputs

Reward estimate using simple, non-compounded yield.
Ending balance if rewards compound monthly at the stated APY.
Average monthly reward implied by the compounded result.

Assumptions

Monthly compounding is used for the compounded scenario.
Yield is assumed to stay constant through the staking period.

Tips

Real staking returns can change as validator and network conditions change.
Check lock-up terms and slashing risk before focusing only on APY.

Formula guide

Use these formulas to audit the output or explain it to someone else.

2 formulas

Simple Reward = Principal × APY × Months ÷ 12

Compounded Balance = Principal × (1 + APY ÷ 12) ^ Months

Usage examples

Review a ready-made scenario, copy it, then tweak inputs to match your case.

Example

3 inputs3 outputs

One-year staking estimate

Inputs

Example input Principal: $8,000.00
Example input APY: 9.5%
Example input Months: 12

Outputs

Example result Simple reward: $760.00
Example result Compounded balance: $8,793.98
Example result Avg monthly reward: $66.17

Yield formulas give a clean baseline, but real staking returns also depend on lock-up rules, downtime, and reward variability.

Staking outcome by APY

5 of 5 rows

APY	Simple reward	Compounded balance
5%	$250.00	$5,255.81
7%	$350.00	$5,361.45
8%	$400.00	$5,415.00
10%	$500.00	$5,523.57
12%	$600.00	$5,634.13

Displayed APY can change with validator performance, market conditions, or protocol rules, so treat the yield input as an estimate.
