đŸŽ¯What is the APY?

APY Outline

APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield. This measures the real rate of return on your principal tokens amount by taking into account the effect of compounding interest. In the case of Virtus Finanace, your $VAP tokens represent your principal, and the compound interest is added periodically on every Rebase event (Every 10 minutes).

Your new principal amount is your then current $VAP token amount, plus your new rebase token amount. This total amount is what gets calculated for your next rebase rewards.

The Power of Compound Interest : It is important to note that your balance will grow not linearly but exponentially over time. Taking a compound interest of 0.01583% / 10 minutes

EXAMPLE 1: If you started with a balance of only 1 $VAP on day 1, after a year, your balance will have grown to 4,103.48 $VAP.

EXAMPLE 2: If you started with a balance of only $1,000 on day 1, after a year, your balance will have grown to around $4,103,475.30.
