Staking Overview

The sui.staking.overview model provides a comprehensive view of staking metrics at the epoch level across the entire Sui network. Staking involves delegating SUI tokens to validators to participate in network consensus. Stakers earn rewards for helping secure the network, while validators earn commission for operating nodes.

Key Concepts

  • Epoch: A time period in Sui (approximately 24 hours) after which rewards are distributed
  • Staker/Delegator: Users who delegate their SUI to validators
  • Validator: Node operators who validate transactions and produce blocks
  • APR: Annual Percentage Rate, the annualized return on staked SUI

Staking Model

Our Sui staking data is organized into the following models:

Unique Key: epoch

APR Calculation

The APR is calculated by dividing the total rewards distributed for the epoch by the total stake and multiplying by 365.25 (accounting for leap years) * 100.
