As a result on the low end it’s possible to run indexers profitably at a GRT price of $0.05 with the minimum stake of 100,000 GRT.
The following details daily cost and rewards using $0.05 and $0.10 as scenarios for the price of GRT as the price points where the indexer breaks even and when it pays more rewards than simply delegating.
| GRT | USD | USD | |
|---|---|---|---|
| GRT price | 1 | $0.05 | $0.10 |
| self stake | 100000 | $5,000.00 | $10,000.00 |
| delegations max | 1500000 | $75,000.00 | $150,000.00 |
| average rewards per 1 million GRT staked for the top 50 subgraphs | 298 | $14.90 | $29.80 |
| max staking rewards at 10% commission | 74.5 | $3.73 | $7.45 |
| delegation rewards at 10% commission | 26.82 | $1.34 | $2.68 |
| profit before cost | 47.68 | $2.38 | $4.77 |
| rpc access | $3.33 | $3.33 | |
| index node | $0.20 | $0.20 | |
| profit over delegating | $-1.15 | $1.23 | |
| APR staking | 1.40% | 14.30% | |
| APR delegating | 9.79% | 9.79% |
- The indexer runs at home at negligible cost of electricity or the cheapest VPS for $6 Contabo VPS 200 GB SSD
- It’s possible to obtain RPC access at 100 EUR per month provided by StakeSquid on request per Email (pay with crypto or wire transfer - comes with invoice - within EU: +VAT)
- The indexer can max out it’s delegation capacity... to be done. This will be achieved through participation in a liquid staking pool. Pool operators please contact us.
