Nostr-Nym

Nostr-nym is a proxy to leverage the power of Nym mixnet by giving the possibility to host a nostr relay behind it in order to protect metadata connection (IP, data size) to be analyzed by ISP

A public relay is accessible with the following nym-client id: 2gc9QidpXs4YGKmphinsDhWTHxdy2TZgWYWz2VenN5jL.dkwwJqS1zXa9BuPAFdniRN2HxFvAbTybAmrUHGAT5KV@2BuMSfMW3zpeAjKXyKLhmY4QW1DXurrtSPEJ6CjX3SEh

A light nostr client is available under client folder to be able to interact with a nostr hosted on the mixnet
