Frequently Asked Questions — ETH Yields

How does Earnbase calculate ETH APY?

Earnbase derives APY from each vault's on-chain exchange rate. This measures the actual growth of deposited ETH over time, based on the vault's smart contract data. Unlike some aggregators, Earnbase does not include external reward incentives, points programs, or token emissions in the displayed APY. The rates shown reflect native vault performance only.

What are the risks of high-yield ETH strategies?

While ETH is a blue-chip crypto asset, the protocols generating yield carry smart contract risk. Higher APYs may indicate newer protocols, lower liquidity, or more aggressive lending parameters. Each listing on Earnbase includes TVL and a yield sustainability score to help assess risk. Always verify directly with the protocol before depositing.

How many ETH strategies does Earnbase track?

Earnbase currently tracks 78 ETH yield strategies across 3 networks from 28 platforms. The largest coverage is on Morpho (17), Euler (9), and Aave (7). New strategies are added as they meet inclusion criteria.

What is a good APY for ETH?

ETH APY varies significantly across platforms and networks. On Earnbase, tracked strategies range from under 1% to over 35%. Native staking yields around 3-4% serve as a baseline. Rates above that involve restaking, leveraged strategies, or liquidity provision, each with additional risk. The average APY across all tracked ETH strategies provides a useful benchmark, shown on each vault's detail page.

Can I compare ETH yields across different networks?

Yes. Earnbase tracks ETH strategies on Ethereum (49 strategies), Base (28), and Monad (1). Use the network filter tabs above the table to compare APY rates on a specific chain. Each network has different gas costs, bridge requirements, and liquidity depth.

Does Earnbase charge fees?

No. Earnbase is a free yield data aggregator. There are no fees for using the tracker or accessing yield data. Earnbase does not hold or manage funds. Links to individual vaults direct you to the protocol's own interface where you can deposit or withdraw.

What is the difference between staking yield and lending yield on ETH?

Staking yield comes from Ethereum's proof-of-stake consensus, earned by validators for securing the network. Lending yield comes from borrowers paying interest to use deposited ETH. Some strategies combine both by lending liquid staking tokens like wstETH, earning staking rewards plus borrowing interest simultaneously.

Why is ETH APY shown in ETH terms, not dollars?

ETH yield strategies produce more ETH, not more dollars. A 5% APY means 5% more ETH over a year. The dollar value of that return depends on ETH's price, which can move significantly. This is fundamentally different from stablecoin yields where APY directly represents dollar returns.

Which ETH strategies on Earnbase carry leverage risk?

Leveraged strategies include IPOR Fusion looping vaults and Gearbox leveraged positions. These amplify yield by recursively borrowing and re-depositing, but they also carry liquidation risk during sharp price movements. Non-leveraged strategies like Aave lending or Morpho curated vaults do not use leverage.

How does ETH borrowing demand affect yield?

ETH lending rates rise when more traders want to borrow ETH for short positions, leverage, or arbitrage. During volatile markets, borrowing demand spikes and rates increase. During quiet periods, demand drops and rates compress. This makes ETH lending APY inherently more cyclical than stablecoin lending.

About ETH Yields

Sources of ETH Yield

ETH generates yield through fundamentally different mechanisms than stablecoins. The base layer of ETH yield comes from Ethereum's proof-of-stake consensus: validators earn staking rewards for proposing and attesting blocks, currently producing a baseline APY that fluctuates with network activity and the total amount of ETH staked. Liquid staking protocols like Lido (stETH), Coinbase (cbETH), and Rocket Pool (rETH) make these staking rewards accessible without running validator infrastructure, issuing liquid tokens that represent staked ETH plus accumulated rewards.

On top of staking yield, DeFi lending adds a second layer. Protocols like Aave, Morpho, Fluid, and Euler let users deposit ETH (typically as WETH) into lending pools where borrowers pay interest. These borrowers are often leveraged traders or yield farmers who need ETH as collateral or for short positions, and their demand fluctuates with market conditions. During volatile markets, ETH borrowing demand spikes and lending rates rise. During quiet periods, rates compress. This cyclical dynamic means ETH lending APY is inherently less stable than stablecoin lending. Earnbase tracks 78 ETH strategies across 3 networks that span both categories.

ETH Yield Strategies Compared

The simplest ETH yield comes from holding a liquid staking token. stETH appreciates against ETH at roughly the staking rate with minimal additional smart contract risk beyond the staking protocol itself. One step up, lending WETH on Aave or Compound earns borrowing interest on plain WETH (which doesn't stake), while lending wstETH earns staking rewards plus borrowing interest simultaneously.

Curated vaults add active management to the mix. On Morpho, curators like Gauntlet manage ETH vaults across risk tiers: their WETH Prime vaults stick to blue-chip collateral markets while Ecosystem vaults accept a wider range of assets as collateral. The choice between these tiers reflects a tradeoff between yield and collateral quality that each depositor evaluates differently. On Gearbox, kpk curates leveraged ETH vaults that amplify yield through controlled borrowing. These produce higher APY but carry liquidation risk if market conditions move sharply. IPOR Fusion strategies take a different approach entirely, using leveraged looping of staked ETH derivatives to stack staking yield on top of lending yield.

Reading ETH Yields on Earnbase

ETH yields on Earnbase require more careful interpretation than stablecoin yields because the underlying asset itself is volatile. A vault showing 5% APY on ETH means 5% more ETH over a year, but the dollar value of that ETH depends entirely on ETH's price. This is fundamentally different from USDC where 5% APY means 5% more dollars.

Earnbase excludes external incentives from all displayed APY, which is especially relevant for ETH strategies. Many protocols offer token incentives on ETH deposits (ARB rewards on Arbitrum, OP on Optimism) that temporarily inflate apparent yields. The rates shown here reflect what the strategy earns from its core mechanism: staking rewards, lending interest, or trading fees, without these overlays. For ETH strategies specifically, comparing the 30-day APY against the current Ethereum staking rate gives a useful benchmark. Any vault consistently producing APY significantly above the base staking rate is taking on additional risk through lending, leverage, or collateral exposure that goes beyond vanilla staking.
