November 2021 Crypto Interest Rate Comparison
Notes and Disclaimers
- Not financial advice
- Do your own research
- There are other factors to consider besides interest rates
- There could be errors - I am only human
- Notes on Rates
- US Rates
- Base Rates & First Tier
- Platforms have other differentiating factors such as minimums, payout periods,
and APY vs APR (most are APY and Voyager is APR).
More details: Notes and Disclaimers Page
I get the rates from out of each app itself, when possible. This is one reason I use US rates, as I cannot verify rates outside of the US, and sometimes the rates listed on websites can be misleading.
Some platforms have tiers and some have bonuses - I list the rates here to reflect what your first dollar, erm, coin, would get without any additional factors.
Notable Changes
A rise in stable coin interest rates! That is almost the only notable thing.
Not much in the way of additions and removals. Only two:
- Nexo added Avalanche (AVAX) with 12% Base Rate (Which can get up to 17% with bonuses)
- Voyager removed interst from Bitcoin SV (BSV). Still present on app but no longer showing that it earns interest.

Possible Changes
I am considering removing BlockFi and Nexo from the table in upcoming months.
Nexo seems pretty consistent with 4% base rate on crypto and 8% base rate on stable coin. Though it has a few outliers it seems a bit easy to memorize, whereas the other platforms I do check back to the table as I can't remember which has what rate.
Also, I have already made the decision not to add Crypto.com to the table. I'm not a fan, for a few reasons I won't go into, but one is the focus on their own token to boost rates. Nexo does the same thing so I guess I'm not a big fan of Nexo either.
BlockFi has all sorts of issues - so many that I haven't even been keeping up with them, haha.
Another aspect is that, in my opinion, the UI/UX of both BlockFi and Nexo are pretty bad. BlockFi you can't even find the interst rates in the app. Nexo you can get to but takes about 3 screens to get to each. So they both aren't a joy to keep track of.
Feel free to hit me up on any socials if you have any thoughts on this.

I don't have any ads or gain anything from traffic to my blog so I thought I'd throw my referral links at the end of my crypto blog posts. Some of the links above to the platforms are referral links as well.
