Network-level Anonymity and Transaction Privacy
summary
Nym mixnet sends multiply encrypted, identically sized packets with three hops between nodes and adds small variable timing delays plus continuous cover traffic to defeat global passive traffic analysis. A standalone Socks5 client binary exists that funnels wallet RPCs through the mixnet; a GitHub proof‑of‑concept relays RPCs to a Monero node so the broadcaster IP and timing linkage are obscured. Integrations for desktop/mobile wallets and a grants program are available for builders.
