🔲Saga SRB
Learn how Saga staking rewards are calculated. SAGASRB uses the Cosmos SDK formula with annual provisions, fees, community tax, and staked SAGA tokens.
SAGASRB is a benchmark representing the mean, annualized staking rate across all active Saga validators.
SAGASRB is calculated and published by Staking Rewards via the Saga Profile and Data API.
⚛️Cosmos Hub SRBTL;DR: Saga staking rewards follow the Cosmos SDK formula (ATOMSRB): annual provisions plus annualized fees, minus community tax, divided by total staked SAGA tokens. Validator-level rates factor in performance and commission.

SAGA Validator Staking Rewards Rate: SAGASRB(v)
Staking Rewards calculates the SAGASRB for each validator based on their individual performance and commission rate.
SAGA Real Reward Rate: SAGASRB^R
The real reward rate calculates the SAGASRB adjusted for inflation in the network.
Inflation Rate Behavior
Saga inflation is fixed at 3% per year. Governance Proposal 22 ("Inflation v2", passed 2025-07-23) set the mint module's
inflation_minandinflation_maxboth to 0.03, so the Cosmos Hub-style bonded-ratio curve no longer moves the rate. The ⅔ bonded target still appears in the mint parameters but has no effect.Staking Rewards reads the chain's live annual provisions each run and adjusts them for the observed block time. The block reward and inflation rate are derived from that figure, so no fixed rate is assumed.
Proposal 22 also set the community tax to 100%, which sent all emissions to the community pool. That applied from 2025-07-23 to 2026-04-07. At block 11,162,741 (2026-04-07) the community tax was reset to 0 by the admin authority
saga1z3sp72f7cw5sgz3ljrhd0e3kdlt7fzl6m3luvd, not by governance. Since block 11,162,742 all of each block's emission has been paid to validators and delegators through the distribution module.Because an admin address can change the distribution parameters without a governance proposal, the community tax is read live on every run. If it were restored to 100%, SAGASRB would fall to 0 on the next calculation.
Other Saga metrics calculated by Staking Rewards
Delegated Tokens
The number of tokens delegated to validators.
Self Staked Tokens
The number of tokens staked by validators directly.
Staking Wallets
This metric refers to the number of unique delegator addresses with at least one delegation on-chain. An address delegating to several validators is counted once. It excludes considerations of any minimum delegation thresholds.
