Staking involves locking up cryptocurrency to support a blockchain network's operations (like validating transactions in Proof-of-Stake systems). In return, stakers earn rewards, typically expressed as an Annual Percentage Yield (APY).
Most staking protocols automatically compound your rewards — adding earned tokens back to your stake. Daily compounding earns slightly more than annual compounding for the same APY. The effective APY (also called effective annual rate) reflects the true annual growth rate after accounting for compounding frequency.
ETH staking yields roughly 3–5% APY via the Ethereum Beacon Chain. Solana (SOL) validators earn around 6–8%. Polkadot (DOT) has historically offered 12–15% but with inflation considerations. Always verify current rates directly on staking platforms as they fluctuate with network conditions and validator commission rates.
