Non-custodial means the system is designed so that your Web3 wallet remains the user-control point instead of depositing funds into a conventional custodial account controlled entirely by the platform. NEYRO agents interact with on-chain infrastructure and smart contracts to execute strategy actions.
Connection, signature and transaction are three different things
Connecting a wallet usually creates a session and exposes the selected public address to the application. A message signature can prove wallet control without necessarily moving funds. An on-chain transaction or token approval can change blockchain state and may authorize a smart contract to interact with assets. Never treat these prompts as identical.
Connection: links the wallet session
Message signature: proves wallet ownership/intent
Transaction: writes an action on-chain
Token approval/permission: may authorize contract interaction with a token
What “non-custodial” does and does not mean
It means the wallet remains central to control, but it does not mean there are zero smart-contract or trading risks. To execute a strategy, the user may need to authorize contract interactions. The exact contracts, networks and permissions should be checked in the live transaction prompts and official interface.
How the agent fits in
The AI agent defines/executes the trading logic; the smart-contract and connected market infrastructure provide the on-chain execution path. This separation is why the user can have a wallet-controlled model while the strategy still runs automatically.
Step by step
Connect the intended wallet
Confirm the public address displayed in NEYRO.
Read every wallet prompt
Distinguish a login/message signature from a transaction or token approval.
Confirm network and contract details
Use the network and contract flow shown by the official live interface.
Allocate capital only after verification
Do not approve unknown requests or unrelated domains.
Review/stop when needed
Use the NEYRO controls to stop the agent and follow the return-of-funds process.
Frequently asked questions
Does non-custodial mean nobody can ever interact with my funds?
No. Automated on-chain execution can require permissions/contract interactions. The point is that the model is wallet-controlled rather than a traditional platform custody account.
Can a simple wallet connection move money?
A connection alone is conceptually different from an on-chain transfer. Always read the wallet prompt because later approvals/transactions may have financial effects.
Where can I verify activity?
On-chain actions can generally be inspected through the relevant blockchain explorer when transaction details are available.
