You already know that Nym loves being on Edge. Now that $NYM is supported in Edge Wallet, you can swap for it, hold it, and use it to pay for NymVPN at a discount, all inside a self-custody wallet you already control. And because Edge is the first multi-asset wallet with the Nym mixnet built in, it's also one of the best places to hold Zcash through the Ironwood migration.

Here's how to make the most of it.

Swap for $NYM, right inside Edge

Edge has added native $NYM support: store, send, receive, and swap $NYM without leaving the app. Swaps run on a native Nym swap feature, with pairs for BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, and $NYM (including the ERC-20 versions). Self-custody means: no centralized exchange, no bridges, no juggling wallets.

Holding $NYM in Edge unlocks a promo for NymVPN. Use this link to apply it automatically at checkout, on a 1- or 2-year plan (not monthly):

So the flow is simple: swap a supported asset for $NYM in Edge, then buy NymVPN with it and get the world's most private VPN for a fraction of the price.

Edge is first wallet with the mixnet built in

This builds on something we announced earlier this year: Edge is the first multi-asset crypto wallet with native Nym mixnet integration. Switch it on, and Edge routes your wallet's traffic through the Noise Generating Mixnet, hiding the metadata (your IP address, your traffic patterns) that even a private cryptocurrency leaves exposed at the network layer.

Made for the Ironwood migration

That matters right now. Zcash's Ironwood upgrade requires holders to migrate their shielded funds, and that migration can link the amount you move to your IP address. Edge is one of the few wallets that supports shielded Zcash by default. With the mixnet already built in, you can make your migration transfer with network-level privacy switched on, so your balance can't be tied to you. If you hold ZEC in Edge, you are set up to migrate privately.

Get started

$NYM is live in Edge now. Download Edge, swap a supported asset for $NYM, and put it to work: pay for NymVPN at a discount, or migrate your Zcash with the mixnet on. Privacy tools should be easy to reach and easy to use, and this is one more step toward that.
