Understanding Staking Rewards

Staking rewards are not fixed and are determined by the protocol of the relevant blockchain, such as Ethereum or Polygon.

• You will receive the rewards set by the relevant protocol.
• Gemini deducts a 15% fee from your rewards to cover on-chain fees and for acting as your staking service provider.

Resources for Protocol-Specific Staking Information

• Ethereum Staking

  • Information such as total ETH staked, total validators, and current APR is published on ethereum.org.
  • This is a public, open-source resource for the Ethereum community.

• Polygon (MATIC) Staking

  • Data on total MATIC staked, total validators, total rewards distributed, and validator commission rates can be found on the Polygon website.
  • Gemini uses Figment as the validator for MATIC staking.
