Nym Node

Nym Node

NYM NODE is a tool for running a node within the Nym network. Nym Nodes containing functionality such as mixnode, entry-gateway and exit-gateway are fundamental components of Nym Mixnet architecture. Nym Nodes are ran by decentralised node operators.

To setup any type of Nym Node, start with either building Nym's platform from source or download pre-compiled binaries on the configured server (VPS) where you want to run the node. Your Nym Node will need to be bonded before it can be run. We recommend most users use the Nym desktop wallet for this.

Read thoroughly Minimum Requirement page before you configure and run a nym-node!
