FAQ
Why do DeFi protocols quote both APR and APY?
APR shows the simple nominal rate; APY shows the compounded rate assuming rewards are reinvested, which is usually the more realistic yield if you auto-compound.
How is APR calculated?
APR = periodic rate × number of periods per year, with no compounding applied.
