"There is a great worrying paradox, when the need for privacy tech is becoming so important to protect citizens to have a state that actively destroys its own local privacy industry." – Alexis Roussel
“[P]rivacy isn’t about having ‘something to hide,’ but about preserving the basic integrity of how we make decisions and relate to one another offline within digital environments.”
“[In Tor you have 3 jumps] but no delay, no mixing [...] As fast as it gets the packet, [Tor] sends it forward. [NymVPN] treats every packet independently. In Tor, you build a circuit, and all the packets go through the same circuit. [With Nym], every packet is a different path.” – Claudia Diaz
NymVPN
Private crypto payments
Using NymVPN for privacy is great, but a full anonymity stack requires anonymous payments. That’s why we’re integrating as many crypto payments and privacy coins as possible so that your payments for NymVPN can be anonymous even to Nym. In addition to Monero and Zcash, you can now pay using Litecoin and Dash.
New app releases
There have been two NymVPN releases since July. Update your apps to the latest v2025.14 to see improvements to UI messaging, connection, and overall app stability. New apps for MacOS and iOS will follow soon to resolve an important daemon issue.

Community governance: Lower stake saturation
NIP-2 has now been implemented, improving network competition and decentralization, and almost doubling the APY for top performing Nym gateways. Read more here about what this means for node operators, your stake, and node saturation. If you haven’t yet, check out the new Nym Governator tool supporting Nym network governance.
New Delegations Program
A new Delegations Program has launched following NIP-2 to onboard new Nym node operators. Apply here as we are always looking for good operators to join the ecosystem, and more locations to expand access and decentralization across the world.
