Earnings on the recalibrated, flat per-node model Calculator
Validations are shared equally per node (no size penalty), so a node's throughput is simply the network demand cap divided by total nodes. Enter up to 5 validators below; rewards are 0.10 MNW per validation for a 12-month stake.
Your validators - nodes in each (up to 5; leave blank if unused)

per validator, all sizes
Heads up: the flat per-node rate is confirmed only up to 132 nodes. If one or more of your validators is above that, results for it are an estimate - validators of 200-500 nodes have not been measured and might be throttled or capped in a way not seen here.
How this is calculated.
per node/day = demand cap ÷ network nodes, then
your val/day = per node × your nodes, MNW = validations × reward, and
APY = (per node × 365 × reward) ÷ 1,800 stake. APY is reward-token yield (MNW earned vs MNW staked) and does not include MNW price changes.
Because total validations are capped by demand, adding network nodes dilutes everyone (per-node falls); the cake only grows if query demand rises above the cap.
