GLMRSRB is calculated and published by Staking Rewards via the [Moonbeam Profile](https://www.stakingrewards.com/asset/moonbeam) and [Data API](https://www.stakingrewards.com/data-api). > **TL;DR:** Moonbeam staking rewards are based on the average APR across all active collators in the Delegated Proof of Stake parachain model. Collators produce blocks and share rewards with delegators. ### GLMR Staking Rewards Rate: GLMRSRB $$ GLMRSRB = avgAPR $$
Formula KeyMetric NameDescription
avgAPRAverage Collator APRThe average annualized percentage rate across all active collators, derived from the network's round-based reward distribution mechanism. Each round, GLMR rewards are distributed to collators and their delegators based on stake weight and block production.
* GLMRSRB is non-compounded, excluding returns from reinvestment of rewards. * Moonbeam uses a Delegated Proof of Stake (DPoS) model with collators instead of validators. * Collators produce blocks on the Moonbeam parachain and share rewards with their delegators. #### Slashing * Moonbeam does not implement slashing. Collators can be removed from the active set if they fail to meet minimum performance requirements, but staked tokens are not slashed. *** ### GLMR Collator Staking Rewards Rate: GLMRSRB(v) Moonbeam collators do not set individual commission rates. All collators share the same reward distribution mechanism defined by the protocol. Delegator rewards are determined by the delegator's share of the total stake on a given collator. $$ GLMRSRB(v) = GLMRSRB $$ * Since Moonbeam collators do not have individual commission, the collator-level reward rate equals the network-level rate, adjusted by the delegator's proportion of the collator's total stake. *** #### Observation Period: 1. The GLMRSRB is determined based on the current round reward parameters at the evaluation point. 2. This data is then annualized for a comprehensive year-long projection. #### Calculation The calculation happens every 6 hours and is immediately published via [Data API](https://www.stakingrewards.com/data-api). #### Limitations 1. GLMRSRB employs a 365-day convention for annualizing reward data. This convention remains consistent and does not accommodate adjustments for leap years. *** ### GLMR Real Reward Rate: GLMRSRB^R The real reward rate calculates the reward rate adjusted for inflation in the network. $$ GLMRSRB^R = 1+GLMRSRB/(1+ir)-1 $$
Formula keyMetric nameDescription
irInflation RateMoonbeam has a fixed 5% annual inflation rate, distributed among collators, the parachain bond reserve, and the treasury.
**Inflation Rate Behavior** * Moonbeam has a fixed annual inflation rate of 5%. Of this, 1% goes to collator staking rewards, 1.5% to the parachain bond reserve, 1% to the treasury, and the remaining 1.5% is burned or distributed through other mechanisms. The effective staking inflation depends on the proportion allocated to collator rewards relative to total supply. *** ### Other Moonbeam metrics calculated by Staking Rewards:

Perform an HTTP GET request on the current page URL with the `ask` query parameter, and the optional `goal` query parameter: ``` GET https://docs.stakingrewards.com/staking-data/methodologies/polkadot-pattern-substrate-srb/moonbeam-srb.md?ask=&goal= ``` `ask` is the immediate question: it should be specific, self-contained, and written in natural language. `goal` is optional and describes the broader end goal you are ultimately trying to accomplish on behalf of the user. GitBook uses it to tailor the answer towards what is most useful for that goal. The response will contain a direct answer to the question and relevant excerpts and sources from the documentation.
