The US election: Freedom of information and misinformation 🦅
With misinformation, disinformation, and malinformation (MDM) on the rise across the US, the line between safeguarding free speech and protecting digital safety is growing thinner.
Americans face unprecedented risks this election season from deceptive information campaigns, uneven regulation across states, and polarized debates over social media platform accountability.
Let's dig into the regulatory landscape, spotlight new privacy tools, and explore how collective privacy can be a defense shield against MDM!

October has been a busy month behind the scenes for the Nym dev team. Nym is preparing everything that needs to be done so that a stable release of NymVPN will arrive in Beta testers hands in November. This means fixing as many bugs as possible, plugging leaks, and improving connectivity.
Thanks to the hundreds of respondents to our recent Pulse Check survey: the feedback was invaluable and Nym is working around the clock to implement needed improvements.

No matter who wins: NymVPN is free for the next month to fight for freedom 🦅
There’s been a lot of discussion and worry worldwide over the coming results of the U.S. election. But no matter if Trump or Harris wins, one thing is certain: surveillance and oppression at the hands of increasingly authoritarian governments will continue to rise.
Nym exists to support freedom fighters in the United States and across the world, so Nym is offering a 30 day free pass over the next month to anyone who wants to protect their privacy online.
In order to have more rewards for high-performing network nodes and optimize the algorithms that convert fiat to $NYM, more NYM tokens have to be purchased before payments are turned on in December.
The details of this NYM token buyback will be announced tomorrow, 5 November 2024. A smart contract upgrade will also be done to reward gateways this month.

NYM token buyback 🎉
In the lead up to the launch of NymVPN on 12 December 2024, Nym will be conducting a token buyback of $1 million USD in NYM from the market.
The goal is simple: boost the Nym treasury while the market is advantageous and use it to improve the Nym network ahead of launch. With payments for NymVPN live in December, there will then be a perpetual NYM buyback organically linked to the demand for and usage of the app.

NymVPN is more than a VPN 😚
Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) have been the go-to solution for securing online traffic for decades. They are used by millions of people across the world to protect their geolocation when doing things online. But the terms of the game are radically changing.
The advent of artificial intelligence (AI) means, among many things, that surveillance capacities are becoming more sophisticated – and not just those of big companies and governments, but also smaller malicious actors. Centralized VPN infrastructures can now do little to protect our identities and patterns of communication online.
What is needed is more than a VPN. NymVPN is here to offer you more: more access, more control, more protection. In fact, Nym is more on many levels, from the architecture of the network to its community. Tap the button below to learn more!

Nym from East to West: DevCon and Web Summit 2024 🌍
It meant many overnight flights for the Nym core team, but we managed to do it all in one week: from DevCon in Bangkok to Web Summit in Lisbon, Nym showcased the upcoming launch of NymVPN and its underlying community and network.
The crowds couldn’t be more different, but the appeal was the same: the world needs something more than what traditional VPNs are offering. We need more access to information, more control of our data, more privacy in what we do and who we communicate with online.
Tap below for a roundup of what the Nym team has been doing to make all of that possible.

Nym’s virtuous token cycle: Next step, Magura 🐉
NymVPN is about to launch. This will be the first commercial application to run on the Nym network, taking the network from its current free and experimental phase to a fully fledged, market-ready, and secure traffic routing network for the age of AI.
The NYM token buy-back is currently trialing the mechanics of a perpetual buyback mechanism to be provided by NymVPN subnoscriptions.
To get there, Nym’s tokenomics will be going through some major upgrades over the next three months. Tap the button below to see a full overview!

Bi-weekly updates on Nym and NymVPN progress
Nym Token Buyback
Nym is conducting a $1m buyback of NYM tokens to bootstrap the Nym treasury ahead of the launch of NymVPN.
App Store Releases
NymVPN was released in Google Play and Apple Store ahead of showcasing the app at DevCon and Web Summit.

Preparing NymVPN Stable Release
All dev efforts are on the coming stable release of NymVPN v.2024.11 at the end of November. The release will include a streamlined sign-up/sign-in flow, network stabilization with state machine integration, the launch of zk-nym credentials, and more.
Nym at DevCon & Web Summit
The Nym team presented 9 talks/panels at DevCon & Web Summit to show off NymVPN to thousands of enthusiastic people in Bangkok and Lisbon.

Notice: explorers are undergoing maintenance
Bear with us as the Nym network Explorer is getting an update!
Nym network has been undergoing a major update with last weeks Magura release. This involved 'smooshing' gateways and mixnodes into a single Nym node type. This change requires updates across all explorers. Explorers are not currently reflecting accurate node and network information.
Nym explorer and harbourmaster will be back up and running shortly.
In the meantime, to check balances, bond and stake, please use: https://explorer.nym.spectredao.net/
Thank you for your patience as Nym network transitions to a commercially viable global privacy network! 🚀
