Learn how Aave staking rewards are calculated. AAVESRB formula covers Safety Module emissions, daily reward distribution, and staked AAVE token yield.

AAVESRB is a benchmark representing the annualized staking rate for the AAVE token.

AAVESRB is calculated and published by Staking Rewards via the AAVE Profile and Data API.

TL;DR: Aave staking rewards come from Safety Module emissions, where AAVE tokens are locked to secure the protocol. The reward rate equals daily emissions annualized over 365 days divided by total staked AAVE in the staking contract.

Formula key
Metric name
Description

dr

Daily Rewards

Emissions per Second from staking contract totaled for one day.

st

Staked Tokens

The total balance of locked AAVE in the staking contract.

tyt_y

Year Constant

365d


Observation Period:

  1. The AAVESRB is determined based on the latest generated block at the point of evaluation.

  2. This data is then annualized for a comprehensive year-long projection.

Calculation

The calculation happens every 2 hours and is immediately published via Data API.


AAVE Real Reward Rate (AAVESRB^R)

The real reward rate calculates the AAVESRB adjusted for inflation in the network.

AAVESRBR=1+AAVESRB/(1+i)1AAVESRB^R = 1+AAVESRB/(1+i)-1

Metric name
Description

i

Inflation Rate

The inflation is determined by the Emissions per Second and is aimed at about 770 AAVE per day (Jan 2024).

Inflation Rate Behaviour

The inflation is also subject to change with possible governance decisions.
