How we calculate
every estimate.
Public methodology · honest math · live data from 8 official APIs. Every calculator below has its own page documenting the formula, the constants, the confidence rating and the sources behind each number.
Live prices
Token prices come from CoinGecko, refreshed every 5 minutes, plus each network's own official API for activity and emission data.
Honest math
Every assumed constant is marked // ESTIMATE in the source and surfaced in the UI. We never hide a number behind a black box.
Conservative outputs
Estimates are point values inside a band (typically ×0.5 low to ×2 high) that captures the real reward skew — not a single optimistic figure.
What we don't model
Each page lists the mechanics we deliberately leave out (lotteries with no public odds, opaque splits) rather than inventing a rate.

Honest side-by-side breakdowns.Last review: 2026-05-22. We re-verify a network's methodology when it changes tokenomics (halvings, reward-split changes, token migrations) or when a more reliable public data point appears. Each page shows its own “Last verified” date.
These are estimates, not guarantees. DePIN rewards depend on local demand, coverage quality, hardware, uptime and token price — all of which move. Figures are point estimates inside a wide band and may be wrong in either direction. Nothing here is financial advice. Always do your own research before buying hardware or tokens.
