Mixnet Contract
The Mixnet smart contract is a core piece of the Nym system, functioning as the mixnet directory and keeping track of delegations and rewards: the core functionality required by an incentivised mixnet. You can find the code and build instructions here.
Functionality
The Mixnet contract has multiple functions:
- storing bonded mix node and gateway information (and removing this on unbonding).
- providing the network-topology to the (cached) validator API endpoint used by clients on startup for routing information.
- storing delegation and bond amounts.
- storing reward amounts.
The addresses of deployed smart contracts can be found in the network-defaults
directory of the codebase alongside other network default values.
