The Crypto Staking & APY Reality

So basically during the bull market there were all these crazy defi projects offering like ten thousand percent APY on their stupid tokens. And literally everyone thought they found an infinite money glitch. Like bro, if a website is offering you a thousand percent return just for staking your coins, you are literally the liquidity. They are just printing infinite tokens to pay you, which means the token is going to hyper-inflate and crash to zero. It's literally just a ponzi scheme with extra steps ngl.

I made this calculator because people don't understand the difference between APY and actual profit. APY assumes that the price of the coin stays exactly the same, which literally never happens. If you make one hundred percent APY but the coin drops by ninety percent, you still lost almost all your money! It's actually so wild how many people got tricked by this tbh. You see huge yield numbers and your brain just turns off.

This tool calculates the actual truth of staking. It factors in the yield you are getting, but it also mathematically calculates the price depreciation of the token. So if you are farming some sketchy farm token, you can see exactly how much the price can drop before your massive yield stops protecting you. It's basically a scam detector tool ngl.

The Real Yield Math

We calculate the compounding interest of your tokens, and then multiply it by the future projected price of the asset to find your actual real-world return.
