Time to decide the reward split between Nym network layers - Join today's community call! 🥧🧩
As covered during the recent Nym Operator Town Hall, gateway rewards will be introduced soon to reward the crucial work of Nym nodes.
Just like the 3 layers of nodes mixing traffic, the rewards of entry and exit gateways will also come from the mix mining pool. This raises an important question for the operator community to decide through a governance vote:
Should nodes acting as entry and exit gateways earn a larger share of rewards to compensate for their operational risks?
This is a complicated question, which is why we are bringing Nym Chief Scientist Chief Scientist Claudia Diaz and Tech Delivery Lead Igor Smirnov on this community call for a proper deepdive.
We will share all the details to arm you with the knowledge you need to make an informed decision, and answer any questions you have. Join us!
The vote will go live during the call and will be live for 2 weeks until the 4th of July.

Meet Nym’s new Head of Marketing!
Nym is excited to welcome Robinson Jardin (@robjardin) to the Nym core team as Head of Marketing. Before joining Nym, Rob spent four years at NordVPN as the Head of Digital & Social Media, which he helped scale to over 14 million users. Rob will play a crucial role in building Nym’s marketing team, leading the efforts to launch NymVPN to the world.
Two things drew the Nym team to Rob: first, his experience in promoting a massively successful VPN product; and second, his lifelong obsession with all things design, from popular advertising to 16th century tapestries. Every technology needs a good design, and Rob is well-positioned to give NymVPN the public image it deserves as the world’s most trusted and private VPN.
The challenge that Rob will be tackling is how to get millions of ordinary people to realize that NymVPN solves a real world problem: genuine online privacy. As digital surveillance and threats grow, everyone in the world needs strong privacy protections more than ever. But few actually have it through available VPNs. Online privacy is a legitimate expectation, as Rob says, but unfortunately it’s not yet a reality. For Rob, NymVPN is one of the few real cybersecurity solutions that can be trusted.
Any groundbreaking product must do more than simply work: it also has to communicate to people what it does for them. Following NymVPN’s alpha testing phase, Nym is now technically prepared to solve the privacy problem for hundreds of thousands, if not millions, of users. And with Rob on board, Nym can really begin the work of communicating NymVPN’s global potential!
