Introduction to Non-Custodial Staking
Staking empowers users to earn rewards by participating in blockchain validation without relinquishing asset custody. Unlike custodial solutions, non-custodial staking requires a personal wallet, ensuring full control over your digital assets while contributing to network security.

Frequently Asked Questions
General Staking Concepts
Q: What exactly is staking?
A: Staking involves locking crypto assets to support blockchain operations, earning rewards through Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus mechanisms. Validators process transactions, receiving compensation proportional to their stake.
Q: How does non-custodial staking differ?
A: Non-custodial staking maintains user ownership of assets through private keys, unlike custodial services where exchanges control funds.
Technical Aspects
Q: What role do validators play?
A: Validators operate network nodes that verify transactions and create blocks. Delegators contribute tokens to these nodes to share in rewards.
Q: Why do unstaking periods exist?
A: Networks impose cooling-off periods to prevent rapid stake withdrawals that could destabilize consensus processes.
Practical Guidance
Q: How to select CEX.IO Validator?
A: Either choose from wallet-integrated validator lists or manually enter our node address.
Q: What's the rewards frequency?
A: Payout schedules vary by network - Avalanche typically distributes rewards at epoch completion.
Q: Can I trade while staking?
A: Only with custodial solutions. Non-custodial staking locks assets until the unbonding period concludes.
