How to Compare Staking Options
01Add Staking OptionsEnter a name for each staking protocol (e.g. Lido, Rocket Pool, Kraken) and input the advertised yield rate. Choose whether the rate is APY (already compounded) or APR (simple interest before compounding).
02Configure Compounding & FeesSelect the compounding frequency if the rate is APR — monthly (12x) and daily (365x) are most common. Add any platform fees, performance fees, or commission as a percentage to calculate the true net APY after deductions.
03Review the RankingThe tool automatically ranks all valid options by net APY, showing gross APY, fee deduction, and final net yield. Invalid entries with missing or malformed rates are flagged and excluded from the ranking.

About Staking Comparator
This tool compares staking yields using a consistent model across different protocols and rate types. If you only have an APR figure, it converts it to APY using: APY = (1 + APR/n)^n − 1, where n is the compounding frequency (e.g. 12 for monthly, 365 for daily). It then applies an optional fee haircut to estimate the net APY you would actually receive after protocol commissions, validator fees, or platform charges. For example: 8% APR compounded monthly = (1 + 0.08/12)^12 − 1 ≈ 8.30% APY. A 10% validator fee reduces this to 7.47% net APY.
When to use it
Use this tool to rank staking or yield-farming options side-by-side before committing funds. Essential when comparing yields advertised differently across protocols (some quote APR, others APY), or when you need to factor in hidden fees that reduce effective returns. Also useful for comparing DeFi yield farming vs centralized staking platforms.
Tips & Tricks
•APY numbers are not guarantees — yields change with network utilization, incentive programs, and protocol adjustments over time.
•Fees can be more complex than a simple percentage — some protocols charge performance fees on rewards, withdrawal fees, or require holding governance tokens for best rates.
•Lockup periods affect real yield — a higher APY with a 6-month lock may be worse than a slightly lower APY with instant withdrawal, especially in volatile markets.
•Consider protocol risk alongside yield — higher returns often correlate with higher smart contract risk or centralization. Diversify across protocols.
•For accurate comparison, always use the same compounding frequency across all options when entering APR values — mixing daily and monthly compounding skews results.
