Taxes from Castles vs Nodes

From what steven has said (Tim the Tat Man interview last year) the taxes from nodes do no go toward the guild or mayor of the node. The node taxes only go toward improvements for the node.
Taxes are also collected by the castles. Do those go to the guild bank who owns the castle?
I don't see much point in owning the castles otherwise or am I missing something?

Normal nodes are outside of the jurisdiction of castles.
The 5 pvp castles control 100% of the map when it comes to taxation (20% each and the ZOI are fixed). The mini nodes attached to each individual castle are sieged in a weekly rotation. Losing those nodes in the leadup to the 4th week main castle siege removes various perks and bonuses given to defenders. For example, wrymlings can be assigned to guild lieutenants to fly on. While not as powerful as the main dragon ridden by the guild leader during the siege, they can still affect things greatly. Every mini-node they lose reduces the number of those available in the main siege.
Please reference castle nodes and guild castle sections.
