  • Ethereum (ETH): ~2.9% → ~3.0%. Validator growth has stabilized; entry/exit queues remain elevated post‑Kiln reallocation, but had minimal impact on the total stake. Fusaka (Dec 2025) improves validator efficiency (PeerDAS, Verkle, higher blob capacity).
  • Solana (SOL): ~6.8% → ~7.1% APY. Staking ratio recently jumped to ~68.4% but is modeled to pull back toward ~67%. Community discussions regarding programmatic slashing increase the importance of high‑performing validators.
  • Toncoin (TON): ~3.68% → ~3.8–4.0% APR. Prior APR compression came from surging staking participation; a rebound in on‑chain fees from recent lows (~4.5k TON/day) toward historical Q4 levels (13–15k/day in 2024) could lift yields.
  • Near Protocol (NEAR): Scenario‑based APY: ~6.3% if the emission‑halving client activates (>80% validator adoption; currently ~40%) vs. ~10.5% if not. If the threshold isn’t met, the subsequent client release proceeds without the cut.
  • Celestia (TIA): Inflation scheduled to step down 5.0% → 4.66% on Oct 31, 2025 (ADR‑019). Given the strong staking‑ratio elasticity, the impact on APR is expected to be modest.

It is critical to understand that staking APRs can fluctuate due to various factors, including but not limited to: market volatility (changes and in market conditions which can materially impact staking rewards), network changes (modifications, upgrades, or forks in the blockchain network may affect staking returns), inflation rates (certain digital assets incorporate inflation mechanisms that can influence staking rewards over time), validator performance (staking rewards depend on the performance and reliability of the validators or nodes to which assets are staked. Suboptimal performance or downtime can diminish returns) and protocol adjustments (blockchain protocols may adjust staking reward rates, which can impact projected APRs, regulatory changes (legislative or regulatory developments can affect the staking ecosystem and associated rewards).

Historical performance does not guarantee future outcomes. The provided APR projections should not be construed as a guarantee of future earnings. Actual staking rewards will vary. Engaging in staking digital assets involves inherent risks, including the potential loss of the principal amount staked.
