Non-custodial staking means you retain full control over your assets. You delegate the staking power to our validator nodes without ever transferring your tokens to us. You can unstake at any time according to the protocol's rules.

We use a multi-region setup with sentry nodes to protect our validators from DDoS attacks. Our keys are managed using hardware security modules (HSM) where supported, and we employ strict least-privilege access controls.

We maintain redundant backup nodes ready to take over if the primary node fails. Our 24/7 monitoring system alerts our on-call engineers immediately upon any anomaly.

Reward payout frequency depends on the specific blockchain protocol. Some pay out every block, others per epoch. Skytree does not hold your rewards; they are distributed directly to your wallet by the protocol.
