Historical APY for yearn.finance vaults

The APY (or growth) on yearn vaults can sometimes be very high, getting up to 50% or even more, tempting us to invest. The problem is that it can change rapidly. A vault can report 50% APY only to show 10% or less a minute later. The number is volatile and changes with every new Ethereum block, which happens every ~ 15 seconds.

Historical APY helps us understand the APY volatility in greater detail. It helps us answer questions like:

• How has a particular yearn vault performed over the last month?
• Is the currently high APY just a spike, or has it been high for longer?
• Has the APY been volatile, changing every day, or has it been rather stable?

Those and other questions can be answered using Historical APY.
