# Staking Yield vePT holders are rewarded by Phemex for [staking their PT](https://phemex.com/web3/stake/dashboard). The APR is calculated using the following formula: ​APR= Annual rewards / Current total vePT Annual rewards = Fixed PT amount \*365 Furthermore, to provide a more consistent and predictable earnings structure, the reward calculation will also be updated. The 5-minute earnings will no longer be based on the previous day's PT buyback but will instead be calculated using the annual rewards, apportioned daily. The revised formula for calculating a user's earnings every 5 minutes is as follows: User’s 5-min Earnings = User’s Current vePT / Total vePT × (Annual Rewards / 365) / 24 / 12 \*User’s current vePT is the snapshot of the user's current vePT value at the end of every 5-minute interval. \*Total vePT is the total vePT value at the time of the snapshot. --- # Agent Instructions: Querying This Documentation If you need additional information that is not directly available in this page, you can query the documentation dynamically by asking a question.
