What APY Can I Earn from Staking on Pluang?
Staking APY on Pluang is not a single fixed, guaranteed number — it varies by coin, by account type, and with underlying network conditions. As of July 2026, indicative APY for Regular users is approximately 1.19% for ETH, 2.22% for SOL, and 6.98% for ATOM, while Pluang+ members can earn a higher estimated rate on each coin. Treat these figures as estimates, not promises: staking APY is floating, reviewed periodically, and can rise or fall with the blockchain's own economics. The live, applicable rate for every supported coin is always shown on the staking page inside the Pluang app, so any number quoted here is a snapshot rather than a locked return. Rewards accrue daily based on your staked quantity and the applicable APY, are paid in the same coin you staked, and the rate you see is a gross figure before tax. Always check the app for the current per-coin rate before you stake.
- APY is set per coin by the network, not by Pluang. Each Proof-of-Stake blockchain has its own native staking yield, driven by how much of the supply is staked, validator rewards, and inflation schedules. That is why ETH, SOL, and ATOM show meaningfully different rates — the differences reflect network economics rather than a Pluang decision.
- Rates differ by account type. APY is estimated per coin and differs between Regular and Pluang+. Indicative figures as of July 2026: ETH ~1.19% Regular / ~2.00% Pluang+; SOL ~2.22% / ~4.50%; ATOM ~6.98% / ~11.34%. All of these are floating and can change at any time.
- APR vs APY. The internal reward calculation uses APR (Annual Percentage Rate); the APY shown in the app is the annualised figure that reflects compounding. APY is generally the more useful number to compare because it accounts for rewards building on rewards over time.
- Rewards accrue daily and are distributed weekly. Your rewards accrue every day based on your staked quantity and the applicable APY, then are distributed weekly, every Tuesday, in the same coin you staked. Accrual is continuous; distribution is the moment those accrued rewards land in your wallet.
- An illustrative way to estimate rewards. As a rough guide only, daily reward ≈ (staked amount × APY) ÷ 365. This is purely illustrative to show how the rate scales with your stake — it is not a promised or fixed payout, because the APY itself moves.
- The quoted APY is gross and subject to change. The rate shown is before any applicable tax is deducted, and Pluang reviews and may adjust rates periodically. Because rates float with network conditions, always confirm the current rate on the staking page rather than relying on a previously seen figure.
Related questions:
Q: Is the staking APY guaranteed?
No. Staking APY on Pluang is floating and reviewed periodically, and it moves with the underlying network's conditions. It is an estimated rate, not a fixed or guaranteed return, so the figure you earn can be higher or lower than a rate quoted earlier. The live, applicable APY for each supported coin is always shown on the staking page in the app — treat that as the authoritative number before you commit.
Q: Why is the APY different for ETH, SOL, and ATOM?
Because each blockchain sets its own native staking yield. Factors like the share of supply being staked, the network's inflation schedule, and validator economics all differ from chain to chain, so the rewards a network pays for securing it differ too. Pluang passes through an estimated rate per coin that reflects these conditions — it does not invent or fix the differences between them.
Q: Does the APY shown in the app include tax deductions?
No. The APY displayed is a gross rate, shown before any applicable tax is deducted from your rewards. The net amount you actually receive after prevailing tax deductions will be slightly lower than the headline APY implies. If you want to estimate your take-home yield, start from the gross APY and remember that deductions are applied before rewards reach your wallet.
Q: How often does Pluang update the staking APY?
Pluang reviews and may adjust APY periodically, and the rate also floats with network conditions between reviews. There is no fixed update schedule you can rely on, which is exactly why the app shows a live rate per coin. Before staking, open the staking page and confirm the current estimated APY for the specific coin you plan to stake rather than using an older figure.
Q: How can I estimate how much I might earn?
As an illustrative guide only, daily reward ≈ (staked amount × APY) ÷ 365, using the current estimated APY from the app. Multiply across the period you plan to stake for a rough total. Remember this is not a promised payout: the APY floats, rewards accrue daily and pay out weekly on Tuesdays, and the figure is gross before any applicable tax deduction.
