I'm unsure of the Net APY numbers on DeFi Saver

DeFi Saver's interface provides you with information of your position's current Net APY. This number is an estimate of what your Net position could be worth in a year, given the current Supply APY and the Borrow APY.

  • Borrow APY is simple interest - basically, how much your debt will increase in a year for the specific debt type.

  • Supply APY is how much your collateral’s value will increase (in $) due to supplying it to the lending protocol

The Net APY is located in the "Overview" section of the current market you have selected:

You can track the current Supply and Borrow APY's of a specific asset under the "Market" section:

How Net APY is calculated on DeFi Saver:

For this example, we'll have a position with $10,002 worth of wstETH as collateral, and $3.999.27 worth of USDC as debt

Hovering over the Net APY percentage brings up a detailed breakdown:

To understand how these numbers are calculated, we've provided a full breakdown:

  • The annual [token] interest represents the yield value on your yield-bearing token: $10,002 * 2.82% = $282

  • The Base annual interest is the difference between your annual supply value and your annual borrow value: ($10,002 * 0.06%) - ($3,992.27 * 5.08%) = -$197

  • The total annual interest is then calculated as: Annual [token] interest + Base annual interest $282 + (-$197) = $85

  • From there, the Net APY % is calculated as: (Total annual interest / (supply balance - debt balance) ) * 100 ($85 / ($10,002 - $3,992) ) * 100 = 1.41%

A Dollar value estimate of your position's Net value after a year is currently unavailable. Borrow and Supply APY's can be volatile, so calculating the value in real-time would be extremely complex and demanding.
