### What is the inflation rate of the DOT?

The inflation rate is approximately 10% per year.
The inflation rate is approximately 120,000,000 DOT per year.

A portion of the inflation is rewarded to validators for performing their duties, while another
portion may go directly to the treasury. The exact percentage that goes into both varies and is
based on the amount of DOT that are staked. Please see the article on
[inflation](../learn/learn-staking.md/#inflation) for more information.
The 85% of inflation is rewarded to validators for performing their duties, while the 15% goes to
the treasury. Please see the article on [inflation](../learn/learn-staking.md/#inflation) for more

- 10% inflation/year of the tokens is primarily intended for staking rewards.

When the system staking rate matches with the ideal staking rate, the entire inflation of the
network is given away as the staking rewards.

The ideal staking rate is a dynamic value - as the number of active parachains influences the
available liquidity that is available to secure the network.

Any divergence from the ideal staking rate will result in the distribution of a proportion of the
newly minted tokens through inflation to go to the treasury. Keep in mind that when the system's
staking rate is lower than the ideal staking rate, the annual nominal return rate will be higher,
encouraging more users to use their tokens for staking. On the contrary, when the system staking
rate is higher than the ideal staking rate, the annual nominal return will be less, encouraging some
users to withdraw. For in-depth understanding, check the
