The Utilities of the NYM Token

The NYM token can be used to access the Nym mixnet and run mix nodes within Nym’s innovative and robust decentralized privacy ecosystem.

For the uninitiated, Nym’s open-source mixnet technology offers developers a secure platform for building applications that ensure the metadata remains anonymous, both in network traffic and at the application level itself.

Nym safeguards privacy at the network layer by encrypting and relaying user internet traffic via a multi-layered network dubbed a mixnet. At each layer of the mixnet, mix nodes mix the user’s internet traffic with that of other users, thereby adding a layer of privacy to communications and hiding user metadata.

Some of the examples of such data are a user’s IP address, who they talk to, at what time, where, and more.

In addition to strengthening user privacy, the NYM token can be delegated to mix nodes that help the users earn a share of the rewards.

Further, NYM tokens are used to pay for transaction fees on the Nym blockchain to keep the network-wide map of mix nodes and their reputation in NYM up to date.
