Understanding Non-Custodial ETH Staking: Who Controls Your Assets?

As staking yields stabilize, the focus shifts from APR to asset control. Ethereum's design separates the 'Signing Key' (for validator operations) from 'Withdrawal Credentials' (for fund ownership). Non-custodial platforms like imToken allow users to retain withdrawal control while delegating operational tasks to node providers like InfStones. With EIP-7002, users can force validator exits even if the operator is unresponsive, ensuring that service providers cannot misappropriate staked ETH.
