Ethereum staking for custodians and platforms
Develp offers Ethereum staking to custodians, exchanges and wallets that stake for their own clients, on a setup designed to differ from the operators already on your list.
What you need
Staking for your clients' ETH, with the withdrawal credentials on addresses you control.

Questions custodians and platforms ask
Can validators be set up per client?
Yes. Each client's validators can be set up and reported on their own, so their stake and rewards stay separate in your statements.
Who holds the withdrawal credentials?
You do. They point to addresses you control, the only place the stake can go. Develp manages the keys that sign duties, and those keys cannot move funds.
How does Develp fit beside our current operators?
As an additional operator on a setup that differs from theirs, so your clients' stake is less concentrated.
Can OFAC-compliant relays be used?
Yes, if your policy requires them.
