Nym Technologies has announced the release of the latest stable version of NymVPN, v2024.12, available from December 12 for major platforms including Android and Windows. This update introduces zero-knowledge accounts using zk-nym anonymous credentials, ensuring that users’ personal information remains unlinked to their app usage.
The zero-knowledge technology, unique to NymVPN, prevents the company from accessing user data, setting it apart from other VPN providers. The company plans to enable payment functionalities soon, but NymVPN will remain free until early next year, offering users a chance to experience the service without charge.
NYM Token Buyback and Future Plans
The release coincides with the conclusion of the NYM token buyback, a strategy employed by Nym Technologies to capitalize on low token prices. This buyback is a precursor to a continuous mechanism that will activate once subscription payments begin in January. The payment system, currently in its final testing phase, will be demonstrated to institutions and the broader community in the coming weeks.
NymVPN v2024.12 also features improved performance and security, thanks to enhanced error-handling capabilities. The app will undergo rigorous testing over the holiday season to ensure stability for its commercial launch in January 2025. Beta payments, which will include options like debit and credit cards, NYM, and BTC, are set to go live soon, linked with zk-nym issuance on new credentials.
Upcoming Features and Commercial Launch
The commercial launch of NymVPN is scheduled for January 17, 2025, strategically timed to maximize post-holiday marketing opportunities. This launch marks the beginning of Nym’s innovative approach to tokenomics, where the value of the NYM token is tied to the app’s usage.
Future updates to NymVPN will include features such as a kill switch, auto-connect capabilities, censorship resistance, and post-quantum cryptography, enhancing user security and access. These developments are part of Nym’s commitment to providing a comprehensive and secure VPN service.
