About

NymVPN is a decentralized VPN powered by the Noise Generating Mixnet. It protects not just your traffic but your metadata: the patterns of who you talk to, when, and from where. No single server sees who you are and what you do, so there are no meaningful traffic logs to keep or hand over. Two modes, one app: dVPN mode: 2-hop WireGuard (AmneziaWG) for fast streaming and browsing on a decentralized network. Mixnet mode: 5-hop routing through the Noise Generating Mixnet, a more private successor to Tor, with cover traffic to defeat traffic analysis. Ideal for crypto, email, and messaging. What you get: Anonymous accounts: no email, no name Pay with crypto or cash; zero-knowledge credentials delink your payment from your VPN use Anti-censorship technology: beat VPN blocking with QUIC, AmneziaWG, and more Swiss jurisdiction, outside the 14 Eyes Fully open source, independently audited 70+ countries, with entry and exit server selection Kill switch, custom DNS, split tunneling, and an ad and tracker blocker powered by Brave NOTE: This package provides the client application only. The VPN also needs the daemon, nym-vpnd, installed and running: deb package (set up the Nym deb repository first): nym-vpnd AUR packages: nym-vpnd and nym-vpnd-bin For more details, see https://nym.com/en/download/linux
