Nimiq $NIM

Nimiq is a revolutionary blockchain project uniquely designed to provide a user-friendly platform that doesn't compromise on decentralization. Strikingly different from other blockchains, Nimiq offers users the default option to participate directly, thereby bypassing the need for a third-party node to connect to the network. The project is trailblazing the crypto world with its innovative features like Nimiq OASIS, the DeFi crypto-fiat bridge, and Albatross, a new lightning-fast Proof-of-Stake consensus algorithm.

Introducing Nimiq OASIS

The innovative minds behind Team Nimiq have created Nimiq OASIS, a groundbreaking DeFi crypto-fiat bridge. This cutting-edge feature enables atomic swaps between crypto currencies like NIM and BTC, and fiat currencies like EUR, with no personal information requirement. Any swap fees earned are automatically converted to NIM, contributing to its overall scarcity.

Albatross: The Super-fast Consensus Algorithm

Nimiq is also the creator of Albatross, an exceptionally fast Proof-of-Stake consensus algorithm set to launch in 2021 with Nimiq 2.0. This innovative feature will push Nimiq 2.0 to the theoretical limits of single chain blockchain protocols with an impressive ~1000 transactions per second (TPS) and finality in just one second. Furthermore, this upgrade will drastically decrease energy consumption to less than 1% compared to current Nimiq Proof of Work (POW).

Nimiq’s “Super-halving”

In its continuous effort to innovate and improve, Nimiq is gearing up for a “super-halving,” a major event where the transition to Nimiq 2.0 will reduce the emission rate from the current ~3000 NIM to just ~525 NIM per minute. This event is expected to have a significant impact on the project's ecosystem.
