What is my Staked Balance?

Your Staked Balance on the Portfolio Tracker shows how much of a particular asset you have staked.

For every asset that you have natively staked, you'll be able to see your Staked Balance on the Asset Balance Report. This tells you how much of a particular asset you have staked. You will see your Staked Balance next to your Calculated Balance and Cost Basis Balance, as shown below.

Calculated Asset Balance is the total amount of a crypto asset we detect in your account across all your wallets (based on your imported transaction data). CoinLedger breaks down Calculated Asset Balance into two types: global and wallet-specific balances. Your Calculated Asset Balance (Global) is the amount of a crypto asset you hold across all wallets on your CoinLedger account, while your wallet-specific Asset Balance is the amount of an asset held in just that particular wallet.

Your global Calculated Balance for an asset (the amount of an asset you hold across all wallets) will include the amount of crypto you have staked. Native Stake and Unstake transactions will not affect this global balance. Additionally, your Cost Basis Balance will also include the amount of crypto you have staked.

However, Native Stake and Unstake transactions will affect your individual, wallet-specific balance for the wallet where these transactions occurred.

Here's an example of what this looks like:

  • Let's say I have 100 SOL in my Phantom wallet, and then I decide to stake 80 SOL. My Calculated Balance within my Phantom Wallet is 20 SOL, while my Staked Balance within my Phantom Wallet is 80 SOL. This is because this 80 SOL technically left my Phantom Wallet when it was staked.

  • However, my overall Global Calculated Balance shown on the Asset Balance Report is still 100 SOL, because the 80 SOL that I staked is technically in my possession and could be unstaked at any time.

Finally, please note that only crypto which you have staked natively (by sending it to a validator to be staked without receiving another token in return) will show in your Staked Balance. Crypto which has been staked through liquid staking (when you receive a token in return for staking your assets) will not be reflected in your Staked Balance, since you are technically receiving a different asset back in exchange for staking. However, any staking rewards you receive while your crypto is staked will be imported into CoinLedger as Staking Income.

For example, if you stake your ETH via Lido and receive stETH in return, your staked ETH will not be reflected in your Staked Balance on the Asset Balance Report for ETH. This is because you received a different asset back (stETH) in exchange for staking your ETH.
