I see different forms of the question "how often should I claim and re-stake" every day, across lots of different protocols.
I made a calculator to help that factors in your capital, gas costs, and APY:
@VolkCrypto
Sort of. In most cases, the earned currency and the staked currency are different, so the terminology is confusing.
Most farms call the earned rate “APY” which is why I stuck with that.
@0xdef1
any idea why it gives slightly different answers from this? I'm using $15k, $5, and 120%. you show 6, this shows 4.4. Im guessing maybe its an APR vs APY thing?
@BriPC23
I’m no mathematician, but I think the formula in the linked subreddit is wrong. It’s just flat subtracting the total gas at the end of the formula, neglecting the affect gas has on compounding.
@0xdef1
if gas costs were 2019 tier, this graph would have a different shape, you would see compounding opportunity in the 100s not just in the 100 000s
anyone have a linearly decaying compound interest spreadsheet calculator I can fork? helps if harvesting frequency cost is integrated.
@scupytrooples
🙃.
@Tetranode
didn't you do this minus the decaying interest rate for CRV rewards?
