Are you feeling lucky?

If you have been collecting (claiming) diamonds on [CoinMarketCap](https://coinmarketcap.com), there is an ongoing NYM airdrop where participants will have the chance (very slim chance because only 200 winners will be chosen) at sharing with the 80k NYM ($20k worth) in exchange for 300 diamonds.

## But Wait, What is NYM?

[Nym](https://nymtech.net/?ref=inleo.io) is a decentralized privacy infrastructure that protects communication patterns, IP addresses, and metadata (device used, location, etc) for end-users, enterprises, and infrastructure operators. It solves the problem of internet traffic patterns being visible to anyone observing the network, even when content is encrypted.<sub>[(1)](https://nymtech.net/?ref=inleo.io)</sub></div>

According to the [roadmap](https://nymtech.net/?ref=inleo.io), the project started in 2018, and between then and 2020, it launched the [Nym Wallet](https://nymtech.net/download/wallet) and explorers [(Block](https://explorer.nymtech.net/?ref=inleo.io), [Mintscan](https://www.mintscan.io/nyx), [Mixnet](https://mixnet.explorers.guru/), etc).

It released its token ($NYM) in 2022; started retail adoption in 2023 (i.e. integration of Monero and MetaMask wallets), launched zkNym credentials, NymVPN, etc. Now, it is working toward institutional adoption (partnership with Brave, Google, etc).

#### Nym's Key Features / Tools

- It routes internet traffic through a decentralized Mixnet that can be accessed anonymously using zk-nyms. The Nym Mixnet shields user's IP addresses, metadata, and traffic patterns. The mixnet can be integrated into any blockchain, wallet, or app.<sub>[(2)](https://nymtech.net/about/mixnet/?ref=inleo.io) 

- It provides strong network-level privacy against sophisticated end-to-end attackers.<sub>[(3)](https://github.com/nymtech/nym?ref=inleo.io)</sub>

- It enables anonymous transactions using blinded, re-randomizable, decentralized credentials (Nym Anonymous Credentials). It helps users maintain their privacy online and who can access their data.

- With [NymVPN](https://nymvpn.com/en/?ref=inleo.io), users can enjoy secure browsing, streaming, and messaging with an unmatched blend of decentralized VPN, mixnet, and zero-knowledge payments.<sub>[(4)](https://nymvpn.com/en?ref=inleo.io)</sub> It is currently in its private alpha phase and only whitelisted users can test it out. More information about NymVPN on [this X post](https://twitter.com/nymproject/status/1720078599972389361).

<sbr>
<sbr>

- [NymConnect](https://nymtech.net/download/nymconnect?ref=inleo.io) is another easy-to-use tool or interface that allows users to connect other applications to the Nym mixnet for privacy protection. It can enhance privacy on Telegram, Electrum, or any other application that can run SOCKS5.<sub>[(5)](https://nymtech.net/download/nymconnect)</sub>

## Summing Up

Nym has partnered with CoinMarketCap to do an airdrop where 200 lucky participants can share $20k worth of $NYM. The campaign ends in 3 days. Anyone with CMC diamonds can participate by going to [the airdrop page](https://coinmarketcap.com/airdropdetail/nym/662208281b77bd4e7cd83e02?ref=inleo.io). The tasks are simple and take a few minutes to complete.

The project (Nym) aims to establish privacy as the foundation for all digital communication and offer a solution against surveillance and unauthorized data collection when using the internet,<sub>[6](https://nymtech.net/?ref=inleo.io)</sub> through its various features and tools (i.e. NymConnect, Mixnet, NymVPN which is in its closed alpha phase, etc).

Online privacy is one that most of us are concerned about and Nym is building a decentralized solution to it. I am particularly interested in the NymVPN and how much it would cost when it is released to the public.
