Introduction

Cryptocurrency APY (annual percentage yield) is a measure of how much you earn on your investment in a cryptocurrency over a period of time, assuming you don’t sell or spend your cryptocurrency during that time.

To calculate APY, you need to know the following:
-The interest rate paid on the cryptocurrency (for example, 0.5% per day)
-The length of time you plan to hold the cryptocurrency (for example, 30 days)

With this information, you can use the following formula to calculate APY:

(1 + interest rate)^(period/365) – 1 = APY

For our example, we would get:
(1 + 0.005)^(30/365) – 1 = 0.01527 or 1.53% APY

What is APY?

The term APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield, and refers to the interest rate earned on an investment over the course of one year. In order for an investment to qualify for APY status, it must be held for a full year. For crypto investments, this means that the tokens must be purchased and held in a wallet for at least 12 months.

APY is different from the more commonly known APR, or Annual Percentage Rate. APR measures the interest rate earned on an investment over the course of one year, including any fees or other charges that may be associated with the investment. For crypto investments, there are usually no fees or other charges involved, so APY and APR are often used interchangeably.

To calculate APY, you will need to know the following information:
-The interest rate (in decimal form)
-The length of time that the interest will be paid out (in years)
-The number of times per year that the interest will be paid out

With this information, you can use the following formula to calculate APY:
(1 + r/n)^n – 1

How to calculate APY for Crypto

If you want to calculate the APY for cryptocurrency, you need to know the current market price for the cryptocurrency, the total number of coins in circulation, and the interest rate paid out by the cryptocurrency.

Using the Blockfolio API

To calculate APY for crypto, you’ll need to use the Blockfolio API. The first thing you’ll need to do is sign up for a Blockfolio account. Once you’ve done that, you’ll be able to access the API.

Once you have the API, you’ll need to input your data into the calculator. To do this, you’ll need to know the following:

-The current price of the cryptocurrency
-The amount of cryptocurrency you have
-The interest rate (in percentage terms)

Once you have that information, you can plug it into the calculator and it will output the APY for your cryptocurrency holdings.

Conclusion

In order to calculate your APY, you need to know three things:
-The interest rate that you will be paid on your investment
-The frequency of compounding
-The length of time that the interest will be paid out

With this information, you can use the following formula to calculate your APY:

`(1 + i/n)^n – 1`

Where:
i = interest rate
n = number of times compounding occurs per year
