The Ethereum Staking Rewards Calculator estimates the annual yield from staking ETH as a validator or through liquid staking protocols, factoring in the base APY, MEV tips, and the effect of total ETH staked on reward rates.
Formel
Annual Reward = Staked ETH × (Base APY + MEV Boost APY) × (1 - Commission Rate)
- S
- Staked ETH (ETH) — Amount of Ethereum staked
- APY
- Base Annual Yield (%) — Protocol reward rate determined by total ETH staked
- MEV
- MEV Boost APY (%) — Additional yield from maximal extractable value tips
- C
- Commission (%) — Fee charged by staking service or pool operator
Trinn-for-trinn guide
- 1Enter the amount of ETH you plan to stake (32 ETH minimum for solo validators)
- 2The calculator pulls the current base reward rate determined by total network ETH staked
- 3Add MEV-boost earnings (extra tips from block proposing, ~0.5-1.5% additional APY)
- 4Subtract validator commission (0% for solo, 10-25% for liquid staking services)
Løste eksempler
Inndata
32 ETH solo validator, 3.5% base APY, 1.0% MEV boost, 0% commission
Resultat
Annual reward = 32 × 0.045 = 1.44 ETH/year ≈ $4,320 at $3,000/ETH
Inndata
10 ETH via Lido, 3.5% base + 0.8% MEV, 10% Lido commission
Resultat
Gross APY = 4.3%, Net APY = 4.3% × 0.90 = 3.87%, Annual = 0.387 ETH ≈ $1,161
Vanlige feil å unngå
- ✕Quoting gross APY without subtracting the liquid staking protocol commission
- ✕Not accounting for validator downtime penalties (offline penalties reduce rewards)
- ✕Forgetting that staking rewards are taxable income in most jurisdictions at the time of receipt
Ofte stilte spørsmål
What is the current Ethereum staking APY?
As of 2025, the base consensus reward is approximately 3-4% APY, plus 0.5-1.5% from MEV-boost, for a total gross yield of 3.5-5.5%. The rate decreases as more ETH is staked on the network.
Do I need 32 ETH to stake?
Solo validators need 32 ETH. However, liquid staking protocols like Lido, Rocket Pool, and Coinbase cbETH let you stake any amount and receive a liquid token representing your staked position.
