NymVPN dApp mode lets you route Ethereum transactions through the Nym mixnet for maximum financial privacy. It creates a SOCKS5 and RPC node connection to the Nym mixnet, keeping your crypto traffic separate from your regular browsing.
If you trade cryptocurrency regularly, see our guide to using a VPN for crypto trading to understand why network-level privacy matters for financial transactions.
This works like split tunneling for cryptocurrency. Your wallet transactions go through the 5-hop mixnet while the rest of your traffic uses Fast mode for everyday speed.
How to set up NymVPN dApp mode for Ethereum?
Voici comment configurer votre tunnel mixnet dApp :
1. Connect to Fast Mode in NymVPN
Traffic is split in dApp mode: crypto transactions route through the mixnet for privacy, while everything else uses Fast mode for speed.
2. Activer le mode dApp
In Settings, open App & wallet proxy and toggle it on.
3. Copier l'adresse RPC
This is your SOCKS5 URL for accessing the mixnet. Copy the HTTP RPC address from NymVPN and paste it somewhere.
4. Choisir un noeud RPC
Choisissez un nœud RPC préféré, fiable ou fiable pour Ethereum. Copier l'URL.
5. Ajouter l'URL du noeud RPC à l'adresse RPC Nym
Replace the <your-provider-url> part of the Nym HTTP RPC address with the URL of your RPC node.
6. Open MetaMask network settings
In Settings, click Network > Ethereum > Edit.
7. Ajouter l'URL RPC à Ethereum
Under Default RPC URL, click Add RPC URL and then paste your modified Nym address. Click Save.
NymVPN dApp mode is designed for use with decentralized apps (dApps) that interact with blockchain networks.
