πFixed APY
APY stands for Annual Percentage Yield. This measures the real rate of return on your principal amount by taking into account the effect of compounding interest. In the case of River Bank Protocol, your $RFI tokens represent your principal, and the compound interest is added periodically on every Rebase event (Every 15 minutes), otherwise known as an βEpochβ. Your new principal amount is your then current $RFI 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 β It is important to note that your balance will grow not linearly but exponentially over time. Taking a compound interest of 0.02355% / 15 minutes:
EXAMPLE: If you started with a balance of only 10 $RFI on day 1, after a year, your balance will have grown to 38290.45 $RFI.
