getInflationRate

Last updated:

`getInflationRate` returns the specific inflation values for the **current epoch**: a `total` rate plus the split between the portion paid to validators and the portion paid to the foundation. All three are annualized rates expressed as fractions — `0.0846` means an 8.46% annualized rate, not 0.0846%.

Use it to display current network inflation, estimate staking yield, or feed reward calculations. The values are epoch-scoped: the returned `epoch` field tells you which epoch they apply to, so clients that cache the result should re-fetch when the cluster advances to a new epoch.

This method takes no parameters and is inexpensive — it is a standard read method available on every tier. For the parameters that govern how these rates change over time, see [`getInflationGovernor`](./getInflationGovernor.md); for per-account staking rewards, see [`getInflationReward`](./getInflationReward.md).
