Nym has a perpetual buyback mechanism in place 🤩💫
Nym is now coming to the end of its NYM token buyback which began last month. A perpetual buy-back mechanism is being put in its place for the NymVPN product launch in January 2025.
The buyback of 1M USD in NYM tokens period has boosted Nym’s token treasury by just over 10M NYM tokens purchased at a historically low price-point. This now provides substantial resources to Nym’s Delegations Program to support operators just ahead of the commercial launch.
Tap the button below for everything you need to know about the motivations and effects of the buyback!

NymVPN Amnesia fork - test real world censorship resistance!
Nym R&D team have implemented a fork of the NymVPN apps with Amnezia enabled. Amnezia is to wireguard what shadowsocks is to socks5. It makes it far harder to detect and censor NymVPN traffic and improves censorship resistance for users!
The fork is now available here for people to try!
Please test the apps and let us know how it is working for you!
With love from the Nym team
