Well, I can only speak for myself, because I know some operators of
those nodes and ran
in the past my own.

Quote:

MULTI-LAYERED ENCRYPTION

Your traffic is relayed and encrypted three times as it passes over
the Tor network. The network is comprised of thousands of
volunteer-run servers known as Tor relays.

And when setting up a Tor Hidden Service, like I did, you have also a key pair
for your .onion site.
