The short answer

At a 22.00% annual rate, 100 SOL earns approximately 22 SOL in the first year before fees. That is a rate-based estimate, not a promise. Change the calculator inputs to model the rate and terms available to you.

Solana holders can delegate SOL to a validator without transferring ownership. Rewards vary by network issuance, validator performance, and commission.

How the staking earnings calculation works

Without compounding, estimated rewards equal the amount staked × annual rate × years. With compounding, each reward period adds earnings to the balance before the next period. The calculator applies the platform fee to rewards, not to your principal.

What changes your actual return?

Reward rate

Network issuance, participation, and platform terms can move the advertised rate.

Fees

Validator commission or platform fees reduce the rewards you keep.

Compounding

Reinvesting rewards can increase token earnings, especially over longer periods.

Asset price

Earning more SOL does not guarantee a higher dollar portfolio value.

Frequently asked questions

How much can you earn staking Solana?+

At 22.00% per year, 100 SOL would earn about 22 SOL before fees in the first year. The actual result depends on the rate, fees, compounding, and product risks.

Are staking rewards guaranteed?+

No. Reward rates can change, validators can underperform, platforms can fail, and the market value of the staked asset can fall.

Does the calculator include crypto price changes?+

No. It isolates staking rewards and assumes the asset amount or dollar principal remains the same. It does not forecast token prices.

How are platform fees handled?+

Enter the percentage of gross rewards retained by the validator or platform. The calculator reduces the annual reward rate by that fee before calculating earnings.
