AvalancheStaking Calculator
Compare current and post-ramp Helicon staking rates across validator durations using live P-Chain supply and Avalanche's official rewards formula.
Rates are illustrative estimates of gross potential rewards, not guaranteed realized returns. Actual rewards may vary with network conditions, eligibility, validator performance, fees, and compounding behavior.
Today's APR and compounded APY compared with Helicon after its 90-day rate ramp.
Network upgrade
Helicon is a planned Avalanche network upgrade that includes several Primary Network staking proposals. Together, they make validator terms more flexible while increasing the reward incentive for longer commitments. The published staking ACPs remain proposed and do not yet specify a final activation date.
Timeline: Before activation, the 10% reward-rate floor and 14-day validator minimum continue. During the first 90 days, new positions lock in the minimum rate in effect when they start as it declines smoothly from 10% to 7.5%. After the ramp, 7.5% becomes the steady-state floor shown by the red curve; the 12% maximum rate and 365-day maximum remain unchanged.
ACP-273 proposes reducing the Primary Network validator minimum from 14 days to 48 hours. Existing positions complete under the terms they started with.
ACP-236 lets Primary Network validators renew by cycle and choose how much reward to restake. Delegators cannot auto-renew or delegate across validator cycles.
ACP-285 lowers rewards most for shorter positions while preserving the maximum-rate end of the curve, making longer commitments relatively more valuable.
ACP-267 proposes a 90% validator uptime threshold. Eligibility remains all-or-nothing, and auto-renewed validators are assessed separately for each cycle.
