Add a two-account member/operator journey (`--member`) to the sandbox smoke and verify the remaining 6 execute commands end-to-end on chain. owner=FAMILY_OWNER (controls family 1), operator=ACCOUNT_WITH_BONDED_NODE (controls node_id 31): kick → invite/reject → invite/revoke → invite/accept/leave, each with per-step state assertions, then restores node 31's membership (verified via --accounts: family 1 back to 1 member). A real pre-existing family is left exactly as found. Also adds read-only `--accounts` (prints owner/operator on-chain state) and generalizes the .env loader to multiple keys (TAURI-WALLET / FAMILY_OWNER / ACCOUNT_WITH_BONDED_NODE mnemonics) — all read at runtime, never printed. With the earlier `--write` owner subset (create/update/disband), all 9 families execute commands + the queries are now confirmed against the deployed sandbox contract. Tasks 5.2/5.3/5.4 marked done; e2e/README updated. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.8 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
The Nym Privacy Platform
The platform is composed of multiple Rust crates. Top-level executable binary crates include:
nym-node- a tool for running a node within the Nym network. Nym Nodes containing functionality such asmixnode,entry-gatewayandexit-gatewayare fundamental components of Nym Mixnet architecture. Nym Nodes are ran by decentralised node operators. Read more aboutnym-nodein Operators Guide documentation. Network functionality ofnym-node(labeled with--modeflag) can be:mixnode- shuffles Sphinx packets together to provide privacy against network-level attackers.gateway- acts sort of like a mailbox for mixnet messages, which removes the need for direct delivery to potentially offline or firewalled devices. Gateways can be further categorized asentry-gatewayandexit-gateway. The latter has an extra embedded IP packet router and Network requester to route data to the internet.
nym-client- an executable which you can build into your own applications. Use it for interacting with Nym nodes.nym-socks5-client- a Socks5 proxy you can run on your machine and use with existing applications.nym-explorer- a (projected) block explorer and (existing) mixnet viewer.nym-wallet- a desktop wallet implemented using the Tauri) framework.nym-cli- a tool for interacting with the network from the CLI.

Tokenomics & Rewards
Nym network economic incentives, operator and validator rewards, and scalability of the network are determined according to the principles laid out in the section 6 of Nym Whitepaper. Initial reward pool is set to 250 million Nym, making the circulating supply 750 million Nym.
