“Freedom is never granted; it is won” — A. Philip Randolph

Is your money really yours?

The current financial system is designed to let others take control of your money. Digital money and payments are managed by centralized intermediaries that are beholden to those in power.

And the world is moving towards autocracy.

If you support the wrong cause or protest, you may be targeted and have your money frozen or seized. So far this decade, dissidents across Hong Kong, China, Nigeria, Canada, Ecuador, Belarus, Georgia, Russia, Kazakhstan, Iran, Myanmar, India, Venezuela, Turkey, Egypt, Thailand and more have had their bank accounts frozen.

Crypto provides an alternative.

Crypto is an alternate financial system designed to give people digital freedom.

People want control of their money.

Decentralized crypto networks like Ethereum and self-custody wallets like MetaMask let people take control of their digital money. Ethereum users are embracing self-custody, with ETH supply on centralized exchanges now at an all time low.

But there is a problem: no privacy.

Without privacy, you are not free from surveillance and targeting. Your entire history can be used against you at any point. “Under observation, we act less free, which means we effectively are less free.” — Edward Snowden

Self-sovereignty = freedom.

Privacy is core to crypto’s vision of digital freedom. Nyx adds this final, missing piece, enabling self-sovereignty.

Nyx gives you self-sovereignty.

By adding privacy to self-custody, Nyx turns your money into digital cash. Cash is self-sovereign: private and doesn’t require centralized intermediaries.

Ethereum is only 1% self-sovereign.

We’re building something that will outlive us and can run without us, in the same way those who inspired us built. Nyx is using the latest privacy tech from Aztec to build a freer world. Mid-2026 you can join our beta. For now, follow our progress on X
