Dear friends and fellow freedom fighters,

Who would have thought July would be such a productive month at Nym? Nym.com got a fresh coat of paint and some great new designs – check it out! Two NymVPN app releases, and in-app payments launched for iOS.

You can now pay for NymVPN in a range of crypto and privacy coins: Monero, Litecoin, Zcash, and much more on the way in coming weeks. Check out the space we just did today with the Litecoin community.

Nym governance is now rolling out with cool new voting tools. The most recent successful vote opened Monero and DarkFi ports via the Anonymous mode in NymVPN. Now protect your Monero transactions with the power of a mixnet.

Unfortunately, the UK’s Online Safety Act went into effect to impose data sharing and age verification on a wide range of content deemed “adult.” This will have serious effects on people’s privacy and access to information. Read what you can do to help Nym fight this new hydra’s head of surveillance.

The good news? Nym is building privacy tech from below to resist surveillance from above. Get NymVPN Early Bird Version for 80% off while the deal lasts, and join the rowdy crowd building a private internet one fixed bug at a time.

Building with you,

Nym

In the media

DLNews: “Trustless VPN signups surge as UK Online Safety Act sparks privacy rush”

“Signups for virtual private networks [...] are surging after new provisions from the UK’s Online Safety Act that enforce age and identity checks and require sites to block certain content for UK users came into effect last week. [T]ustless or decentralised VPNs [...] are benefitting too.”

Financial Times: “How VPNs knocked a hole in online safety efforts”

“Britain’s sudden VPN boom suggests plenty of tech-savvy teens, and cautious adults, are choosing instead to circumvent the controls.”

Isabelle Castro: “Jaya Brekke on Mixnets and digital privacy's inflection point”

“[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”

Private crypto payments

Nym is dedicated to making sure you can pay in the crypto method you prefer. We have rolled out integrations for Monero, Litecoin, Zcash, and there’s a lot more to come, but no spoilers!

New app releases

There were two new NymVPN releases in July in the goal of making NymVPN as stable and bug-free as possible. Update to NymVPN v2025.12 if you haven’t already!

In-app for iOS

You can now pay for NymVPN directly in the iOS app. The feature will be extended to all apps in the coming month.

What’s coming next?

Stay up to date with the public roadmap for NymVPN development. Here’s what in the immediate pipeline:

Completing the localization of the NymVPN apps and nym.com in 10+ languages
The second phase of NymVPN’s censorship resistance program
In-app payments for all apps

NIP-3 success: Monero and DarkFi ports open

Following a successful NIP (Nym Improvement Proposal), the Nym community voted to open ports related to Monero and DarkFi via the NymVPN Anonymous mode. Importantly, this allows people to make anonymous Monero transactions via the Noise Generating Mixnet.

Improvements to node rewards & governance

NIP-2 passed to lower the Nym node stake saturation point from 1M to 500k or 250k NYM. It also changes the composition of the mixnet active set to increase the number of available gateways.

If you haven’t yet, check out the new Nym governator tool supporting Nym network governance.

Hyperlane BSC Bridge

The Nym team is in the final stages of developing a bridge that will permit interoperability for the NYM token and more via Binance Smart Chain. But more on that later!
