1/5 The internet is split into different layers with different functions, and the underlying network infrastructure is Layer 0. Let's have a look into how the Nym mixnet addresses the network or transport layer of the internet: think of this as the roads and highways of the web.

Every single internet application and service whether Web 2.0 or Web3 suffers from the same issue: exposed network traffic. Nym solves this ‘transport layer privacy problem’ by obscuring network traffic for any web service, chain, dApp, wallet or app. 🔒

Help build censorship resistance with the Nym censorship test! A new test will help Nym core team gauge if the Nym mixnet is being censored — and if so, how to fight it. Governments everywhere are attacking freedom of information. To keep the Nym mixnet operational in the face of future attacks or shut-offs, it’s critical that censorship resistance is built into the very fabric of the mixnet and continuously improved. In order to understand the current level of censorship, the Nym core team has built a censorship measurement test. Community members are strongly encouraged to download and run the test, and share their results! Read on to find out more.

OK, so apparently people got 100 NYM - this is a mistake, the reward is $100 in NYM tokens (around 500 NYM or so). This will be corrected today. Keep an eye on your wallet!
