The Graph rewards calculator
Estimate what staking with an indexer earns, after its indexing reward cut.

Average across indexers: about 7.13% a year
What each indexer's delegators were paid over the last 30 days, divided by what was delegated to it, as a yearly rate: already after the indexer's cut. With no indexer picked, the average over every indexer with a return, weighted by delegation.
How this is worked out
Each indexer’s rate is what its delegators were paid over the last 30 days, divided by what was delegated to it, from BitBasic’s daily readings of the network subgraph: already after the indexer’s cut, made yearly without compounding, and spread evenly over each epoch (1 day).

Assumptions
- The indexer keeps paying its delegators what it paid over the last 30 days. Rewards arrive when its allocations close, up to 28 days apart, so a month can hold more or fewer of them.
- It stays eligible for indexing rewards: the rewards eligibility oracle renews an indexer for 14 days at a time, and one it doesn’t renew earns nothing until it is renewed.
- Rewards are added to the delegation, so they earn too; the estimate leaves that compounding out, which keeps it a little low.
- Delegation past 16× the indexer’s own stake earns nothing, and adding to it lowers every delegator’s share.
- Undelegating takes the indexer’s thawing period (shown on its page), and tokens earn nothing while they thaw. There is no delegation tax.
