As you may know, the Tor Network has a very high percentage of bad actors, compared to the modern Nym Mixnet, which can discover your .onion sites.
Can be considered compromised !
If it is not suitable than this should tell us something
about the Tor ecosystem, it's programmers and users...
Nym has the right cryptographic design (Sphinx <3), but its infrastructure depends on a speculative token economy.
Network resilience tied to market sentiment is the opposite of what critical privacy infrastructure needs.
In my really humble opinion.
On paper, it addresses exactly what Tor fails at metadata protection against a global passive adversary. But Nym's entire infrastructure runs on a speculative token economy.
Node operators are incentivized by financial rewards, not by mission.
If the token crashes, operators leave and the network degrades.
If the token moons, it attracts profit-driven operators who may cut corners on security.
Beside this, Nym as architecture is SOUND !!!
