What does 2.3% per day actually compound to?
Taken at face value and multiplied out, 2.3% per day is 402,252% a year. That is about 100,563x what you would get from a three-month Treasury bill that pays around 4% and a government-insured deposit around 3.5%. The arithmetic below assumes every payment arrives on time, which is the assumption that fails in practice, not the compounding.
Mathematically impossible to sustain
Compounded, this turns a small deposit into more money than exists. Nobody has ever sustained it. The advertised number is bait.
2.3% per day, by starting amount
| Held for | $100 becomes | $1,000 becomes | $10,000 becomes |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 year | $402.4K | $4.0M | $40.2M |
| 3 years | $6.5T | $65.1T | $651.4T |
| 5 years | $1.05e+20 | $1.05e+21 | $1.05e+22 |
| 10 years | $1.11e+38 | $1.11e+39 | $1.11e+40 |
Balance = principal x (1 + 2.3%) ^ periods, compounded every day.
2.3% per day against what is guaranteed
Reference levels: long-run approximations, October 2026. A multiple of "-" means the comparison does not apply.
| Reference level | Rate | This rate in multiples |
|---|---|---|
| Insured bank deposit (US, FDIC) | 3.5% a year (guaranteed) | 114,929x |
| 3-month US Treasury bill | 4.0% a year (guaranteed) | 100,563x |
| US inflation (consumer prices) | 2.5% a year (not investable, measures erosion) | 160,901x |
| S&P 500, long-run average | 10.0% a year (not guaranteed to anyone) | 40,225x |
| Best long-run professional record (Buffett, decades) | 20.0% a year (not guaranteed to anyone) | 20,113x |
The red line
A guaranteed return higher than a Treasury bill or an insured deposit cannot exist. Every dollar paid above the risk-free rate is paid for with risk, leverage, or other people's deposits. A published promise of a fixed return above the risk-free rate is the definition of a return trap.

Questions about 2.3% per day
- What is 2.3% per day as an annual return?Compounded, 2.3% per day is 402,252% a year. Interest is multiplied, not added, so the yearly figure is (1 + 2.3/100) raised to the power of 365, minus one.
- How long would 2.3% per day take to double my money?About 30 days. At a daily rate that high the balance reaches a million dollars from a thousand in 10 months, which is why the number is only ever advertised, never audited.
- Is 2.3% per day realistic?No supervised product guarantees anything close. A daily percentage is quoted because it sounds small, but 402,252% a year is far above an insured deposit, above a Treasury bill, and above the best long-run professional record. A fixed promise at that level has to be paid from someone else's deposit.
