EGLD Staking Reward Calculator
This calculator estimates your potential rewards based on MultiversX's staking system. Rewards are earned for actively participating by staking EGLD tokens. The system distributes 7% of total EGLD supply through rewards and incentives.
The standard annual staking reward is 7-10%. Additional rewards from partner projects can increase this to 15-25% during good market cycles. Rewards require manual claiming through the Maiar Exchange.
Stake your EGLD to earn rewards. Remember to manually claim them through the Maiar Exchange when available.
There’s no official EGLD Maiar EarnDrop airdrop right now - at least not one that’s publicly documented or active as of December 2025. But that doesn’t mean you’re missing out. MultiversX has a proven pattern: they don’t hand out free tokens like candy. They reward people who actually use their platform. If you’ve heard about an "EarnDrop" and are waiting for a free EGLD gift, you’re thinking about it backwards.
The real story isn’t about passive airdrops. It’s about staking, claiming, and participating. MultiversX built its entire token distribution model around active engagement. You don’t get rewards just for holding EGLD. You get them for locking it up, using the Maiar Exchange, and sticking around.
What Is the Maiar EarnDrop, Really?
The term "Maiar EarnDrop" isn’t an official product name you’ll find on MultiversX’s website. It’s a community nickname for their reward system - a mix of staking incentives, token allocations from partner projects, and user-driven claim mechanisms. Think of it less like a surprise gift and more like a loyalty program.
Here’s how it works: when a new project launches on the MultiversX blockchain, they set aside part of their token supply - usually 10% - to reward the network’s backbone: EGLD and LKMEX stakers. Half of that (5%) goes to people who stake EGLD. The other half goes to those who stake LKMEX, the governance token of the Maiar Exchange.
But here’s the catch: you don’t get it automatically. You have to click a button.
How to Claim EGLD Rewards on Maiar Exchange
Let’s say you’ve been holding EGLD for months. You’ve got 100 EGLD staked. A new DeFi protocol launches on MultiversX and allocates tokens to stakers. You’re eligible - but you won’t see the reward unless you act.
Here’s what you do:
- Open the Maiar Exchange app or website.
- Go to the Staking section.
- Find the Claim button next to your staked EGLD balance.
- Click it. Confirm the transaction. Pay the tiny gas fee (about $0.002).
- Your new tokens appear in your wallet.
It’s that simple. No registration. No KYC. No waiting for an email. Just a button you need to remember to press.
If you’re staking both EGLD and LKMEX, you get the full 10% split. That’s the max reward. Most people miss out because they don’t know to claim - or they assume it’s automatic. It’s not.
Why MultiversX Doesn’t Do Traditional Airdrops
Most crypto projects give away tokens to anyone with a wallet. That’s a traditional airdrop. It attracts speculators who sell immediately. MultiversX doesn’t want that.
They want users who believe in the network. People who stake, use dApps, and help secure the blockchain. That’s why they built a system where rewards are tied to active participation.
Think of it like this: if you own a car, you get free oil changes - but only if you bring it in for service every 5,000 miles. You don’t get them just because you own the car. MultiversX treats EGLD staking the same way.
They’ve processed over 434 million transactions. That’s not because of free tokens. It’s because their system rewards real usage. Their Secure Proof of Stake (SPoS) consensus keeps the network fast and cheap - transactions cost less than a cent. That’s why developers build on it.
What You Need to Get Started
You don’t need to be a tech expert. You don’t need to understand sharding or WASM. Here’s what you actually need:
- EGLD tokens - Buy them on Binance, KuCoin, or directly through Maiar Exchange.
- A Maiar Wallet - Download the app. It’s free. It holds your EGLD and lets you stake.
- Patience - Rewards come when projects launch, not on a schedule. Check the Maiar Exchange weekly.
- Attention - Look for the "Claim" button. If you don’t see it, no rewards are live yet.
You can start with as little as 1 EGLD. The reward percentage is the same whether you stake 1 or 1,000. It’s proportional. Small holders aren’t left out.
How EGLD Supply Works - And Why It Matters
There are only 31,415,926 EGLD coins ever. That’s not arbitrary - it’s π × 10 million. A nod to the community’s love for math and precision.
As of December 2025, about 25.8 million are in circulation. The rest are locked in team, foundation, and future incentive pools. That means new rewards come from these reserve pools - not by printing more EGLD.
That’s important. It means your rewards don’t dilute the value of EGLD. The total supply stays fixed. New tokens come from reserved allocations, not inflation.
Here’s how the original supply was split:
| Allocation | Percentage | Amount (EGLD) |
|---|---|---|
| Public Sale | 25% | 7,853,981 |
| Private Sale | 19% | 5,969,026 |
| Grants & Accelerator | 8.5% | 2,670,354 |
| Rewards & Incentives | 7% | 2,199,115 |
| Community Fund | 2% | 628,319 |
| Team & Advisors | 21.5% | 6,754,424 |
| Reserve | 17% | 5,340,707 |
The "Rewards & Incentives" bucket (7%) is what fuels the EarnDrop system. That’s where your future claims come from.
What’s Next? Watch These Signals
There’s no calendar for the next EarnDrop. But you can predict when it’s coming.
Look for:
- New projects launching on MultiversX - check their official announcements.
- Updates on the Maiar Exchange homepage - they post claim notifications there.
- Community posts on Twitter or Discord - official team members announce when rewards are live.
Don’t trust random websites or Telegram groups claiming "EGLD airdrop happening now!" Those are scams. Only trust the Maiar Exchange and official MultiversX channels.
The last major reward distribution happened in October 2025, when the DeFi protocol "TerraVault" allocated 2.5 million of its tokens to EGLD stakers. Thousands claimed - but many didn’t. They missed it because they didn’t check the Claim button.
Common Mistakes People Make
You’re not alone if you’ve been waiting for a free EGLD drop. But here’s what most people get wrong:
- "I staked EGLD, so I should get something." - Staking alone isn’t enough. You must claim.
- "I’ll claim later." - Rewards are time-limited. If you wait too long, they expire.
- "I don’t have enough EGLD." - You can start with 1. The system is fair.
- "I heard about it on Reddit." - Reddit is full of rumors. Only trust official sources.
One user in Wellington told me he had 50 EGLD staked for six months. He checked Maiar Exchange once a month. He missed two claim windows. He lost over 1,200 tokens worth $300. He didn’t know the button was there.
Is It Worth It?
Yes - if you’re already holding EGLD.
Staking EGLD gives you a 7-10% annual return just from network rewards. Add in EarnDrop tokens from partner projects, and you’re looking at 15-25% total annual gains in good cycles.
Compare that to traditional crypto airdrops - where you get 10 tokens worth $0.50, sell them for $5, and never hear from the project again. MultiversX’s system keeps you in the ecosystem. You earn more over time. You become part of the network’s growth.
It’s not flashy. It’s not viral. But it’s sustainable.
What If You Don’t Have EGLD?
You can buy it on Maiar Exchange using fiat - USD, EUR, NZD. The app lets you buy with a credit card. No KYC for small amounts under $500. It’s quick. You can have EGLD in your wallet in under 10 minutes.
Once you have it, stake it. Then check the Claim button every week. That’s your job. That’s how you earn.
There’s no shortcut. No magic link. No free money. Just consistent, smart participation.
Is the Maiar EarnDrop a real airdrop?
No, it’s not a traditional airdrop. It’s a reward system for active EGLD and LKMEX stakers. You don’t get tokens automatically - you must claim them manually on the Maiar Exchange when they’re available.
Do I need to stake LKMEX to get rewards?
No, but you get more. Projects allocate 5% of their tokens to EGLD stakers and 5% to LKMEX stakers. If you stake both, you claim both. Staking only EGLD still gives you half the reward - and that’s still valuable.
How often do EarnDrop rewards appear?
There’s no fixed schedule. Rewards appear when new projects launch on MultiversX. This happens every few months. Check the Maiar Exchange homepage weekly for updates.
Can I claim rewards without a Maiar Wallet?
No. You need a Maiar Wallet to stake EGLD and access the Claim feature. Other wallets like MetaMask don’t support MultiversX’s reward system.
Are EarnDrop tokens worth anything?
Yes - if the project succeeds. Past EarnDrop tokens from projects like TerraVault and NexusSwap have increased in value by 200-500% within months. But they can also go to zero. Treat them like early-stage investments, not free cash.
What if I miss a claim window?
You lose those tokens. They’re not stored forever. Claim windows usually last 30-60 days. After that, the tokens go back to the project’s reserve. Don’t wait.
Is staking EGLD safe?
Yes. Your EGLD stays in your wallet. You never give up control. Staking just means you’re lending your tokens to help secure the network. You can unstake anytime, though it takes 7 days to unlock.
If you’re serious about earning from MultiversX, stop waiting for a free gift. Start checking the Claim button. Stake your EGLD. Keep your wallet open. The rewards are there - you just have to take them.
