About Polkadot

Polkadot is a network of interoperable chains secured by a shared relay chain using nominated proof-of-stake. It pays one of the highest native staking rates among large caps, which is the flip side of an inflationary supply with no hard cap. Nominators pick validators and share both the rewards and the slashing risk.

Polkadot fees are small, but existential-deposit rules mean an account can be reaped if you drain it below the minimum balance.

DOT's high nominal yield is partly compensation for inflation β€” judge it against price performance, not in isolation.

Frequently asked questions

οΌ‹Does DOT have a maximum supply?

No fixed cap is published for Polkadot, which is why no maximum is shown on this page β€” we leave the figure out rather than invent a denominator. Circulating supply was 1.7 billion DOT as of 31 July 2026. Without a cap, the number that matters is the net issuance rate: new supply minus anything burned, as a percentage per year.

οΌ‹Can I stake DOT, and what does it pay?

Yes. Nominate up to 16 validators yourself, or join a nomination pool if you hold less than the active minimum. Rewards run at historically around 10–15%, falling as more DOT is staked, and the calculator on this page is prefilled with 11% so you can change it to whatever your validator or platform actually quotes. 28-day unbonding period β€” your DOT earns nothing while it unwinds. Staking is native to the protocol here, so you are not relying on a third party's wrapper.

οΌ‹Which DOT calculator should I use?

There are 6 on this page and they answer different questions. Start from what you are actually asking: what a past purchase would be worth now, what a position is worth today, where a leveraged position gets liquidated, or what regular buying would have produced. Each opens with the live DOT price already filled in, and every calculation runs in your browser β€” nothing is sent anywhere and nothing is stored.

οΌ‹Where does the DOT price on this page come from?

Live from CoinGecko when you press the price button, with the DOTUSDT pair on Binance as a fallback if that request fails. The request happens in your browser and carries nothing about you; if both fail the calculator keeps working with whatever figure you type in.
