# Secret SRB

SCRTSRB is a benchmark representing the mean, annualized staking rate across all active Secret Network validators.

SCRTSRB is calculated and published by Staking Rewards via the [Secret Network Profile](https://www.stakingrewards.com/asset/secret-network) and [Data API](https://www.stakingrewards.com/data-api).

> **TL;DR:** Secret Network staking rewards follow the Cosmos SDK formula (ATOMSRB): annual provisions plus annualized fees, minus community tax, divided by total staked SCRT tokens. Validator-level rates factor in performance and commission.

{% hint style="info" %}
The calculations are derived from the ATOMSRB documentation, serving as the foundational reference to ensure the accuracy of relevant metrics.

For more information visit the [ATOMSRB docs](https://docs.stakingrewards.com/staking-data/methodologies/cosmos-hub-srb).

### SCRT Validator Staking Rewards Rate: SCRTSRB(v)

Staking Rewards calculates the SCRTSRB for each validator based on their individual performance and commission rate.

$$
SCRTSRB(v) = ATOMSRB(v)

### SCRT Real Reward Rate: SCRTSRB^R

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

$$
SCRTSRB^R = ATOMSRB^R

**Inflation Rate Behavior**

* Secret Network's inflation parameters are designed to balance token supply and staking participation. The annual inflation rate for SCRT ranges between a minimum of 5% and a maximum of 10%, with an inflation rate change set at 13%. The network aims to have 67% of SCRT tokens bonded to maintain network security, with adjustments made over time to encourage this target.
