### Can I be slashed for being offline?

No. Realistically, the only condition that can cause a [slashing event](https://github.com/Buttaa/ethstaker/blob/main/help/staking-glossary.md#slashable-offenses) is if you run your validator's keys on two nodes at the same time (such as a failover / redundancy setup, where your backup node accidentally turns on while your main node is still running). Don't let this happen, and you won't get slashed. **Slashing cannot occur from being offline for maintenance**.
