### Data Availability

Yield data becomes available only after inflation rewards are fully paid out, which can take several hundred blocks after an epoch ends. Once available, the data includes Inflation Rewards, Block Fees, and MEV Rewards.

The `mev` field in the response represents rewards earned in the previous epoch but paid out in the current one (i.e., MEV earned in epoch X-1 is paid in epoch X).
