What Percentage Do You Make for Staking Algorand on Coinbase?

If you’re like most people, you probably think that staking your coins on Coinbase is a pretty good deal. After all, you’re getting free money just for holding onto your coins, right?

Wrong.

The reality is that when you stake your coins on Coinbase, you’re not getting anywhere near the full value of those coins. In fact, you’re only getting a fraction of a percent.

For example, let’s say you have 1,000 Algorand coins and you stake them on Coinbase. After one year, those coins will be worth $1,100.

NOTE: WARNING: Staking Algorand on Coinbase involves a certain level of risk. Please make sure that you understand the risks involved, as well as the rewards. Be aware of the fact that staking Algorand on Coinbase can involve significant losses and there is no guarantee of a return on your investment. Additionally, while staking Algorand on Coinbase may yield returns, the percentage of returns is not fixed and can vary depending on market conditions and other factors.

But of that $1,100, only $10 will be yours to keep. The other $1,090 will go to Coinbase.

In other words, you’re only getting 1% of the value of your coins.

There are a few reasons for this. First off, Coinbase takes a cut of all the rewards that are earned from staking.

Second, the value of the coins themselves will likely go up over time (meaning that your 1,000 coins will be worth more than $1,100 one year from now). And third, the interest rates on staking are relatively low right now.

So if you’re thinking about staking your Algorand coins on Coinbase, just know that you’re not going to make much money from it. In fact, you might even lose money if the value of the coin goes down.
