 * nym-gateway - acts sort of like a mailbox for mixnet messages, removing the need for directly delivery to potentially offline or firewalled devices.
 * nym-network-monitor - sends packets through the full system to check that they are working as expected, and stores node uptime histories as the basis of a rewards system ("mixmining" or "proof-of-mixing").
 * nym-explorer - a (projected) block explorer and (existing) mixnet viewer.

+### Rewards
+
+Node, node operator and delegator rewards are determined according to the principles laid out in the section 6 of [Nym Whitepaper](https://nymtech.net/nym-whitepaper.pdf). Below is a TLDR of the variables and formulas involved in calculating the epoch rewards. Initial reward pool is set to 250 million Nym, making the circulating supply 750 million Nym.
+
+|Symbol|Definition|
+|---|---|
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=R">|global share of rewards available, starts at 2% of the reward pool. 
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=R_{i}">|node reward for mixnode `i`.

+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=\lambda_{i}">|ratio of stake operator has plaged to their node to the token circulating supply.
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=\omega_{i}">|fraction of total effort undertaken by node `i`, set to `1/k` in testnet Milhon.
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=k">|number of nodes stakeholders are incentivised to create, set by the validators, a matter of governance. Currently determined by the `active set` size, and set to 5000 in testnet Milhon.
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=\alpha">|Sybil attack resistance parameter - the higher this parameter is set the stronger the reduction in competitivness gets for a Sybil attacker.
+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=PM_{i}">|declared profit margin of operator `i`, defaults to 10% in testnet Milhon.

+|<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=PP_{i}">|cost of operating node `i` for the duration of the rewarding eopoch, set to 40 Nym for testnet Milhon.
+
+Node reward for node `i` is determined as:
+
+<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=R_{i}=PF_{i} \cdot R \cdot (\sigma^'_{i} \cdot \omega_{i} \cdot k %2b \alpha \cdot \lambda^'_{i} \cdot \sigma^'_{i} \cdot k)/(1 %2b \alpha)">
+
+where:
+
+<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=\sigma^'_{i} = min\{\sigma_{i}, 1/k\}">
+
+and
+
+<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=\lambda^'_{i} = min\{\lambda_{i}, 1/k\}">
+
+Operator of node `i` is credited with the following amount:
+
+<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=min\{PP_{i},R_{i})\} %2b max\{0, (PM_{i} %2b (1 - PM_{i}) \cdot \lambda_{i}/\delta_{i}) \cdot (R_{i} - PP_{i})\}">
+
+Delegate with stake `s` recieves:
+
+<img src="https://render.githubusercontent.com/render/math?math=max\{0, (1-PM_{i}) \cdot (s^'/\sigma_{i}) \cdot (R_{i} - PP_{i})\}">

+
+On Ubuntu-ish systems (not tested on Debian but may work):
+
+```
+sudo apt update && sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.0-dev \
+    build-essential \
+    curl \
+    wget \

+
+## Getting started
+
+1. Start Sapper([docs](https://sapper.svelte.dev/docs/)) -> `yarn run dev`
+2. Start Tauri([docs](https://tauri.studio/en/)) in another terminal -> `yarn tauri dev`
+3. Start validator-api locally, or override `validator-urls` in `index.svelte`
+
+## Getting around
+
++ Frontend -> `tauri-client/`
