FAQ
Is Nymra free?
Section titled “Is Nymra free?”Yes. In V1 every scan and every finding is free and open, for any wallet. See $NYMRA token for how holder access may work later.
Do I need to connect a wallet?
Section titled “Do I need to connect a wallet?”No. Paste an address or ENS name in the Terminal. Connecting a wallet only fills in your own address.
Can I scan a wallet that is not mine?
Section titled “Can I scan a wallet that is not mine?”Yes. Everything a scan shows is already public on the chain. Nymra puts the pieces together and explains them. Every link it reports is a likelihood with a confidence, never a claim of who owns a wallet.
Does Nymra know who owns a wallet?
Section titled “Does Nymra know who owns a wallet?”No. It reports patterns in public data, such as a shared funder or a shared exchange deposit address, and how likely it is that two wallets belong together. It never states who owns a wallet.
Why is my score low? I did nothing wrong.
Section titled “Why is my score low? I did nothing wrong.”The score measures how linkable a wallet is, not whether anything is wrong. A wallet funded from an exchange, with an ENS name, used every day, scores low, and that is normal. The score shows what is visible, so you can decide what to keep apart from now on.
Some chains show an error. Why?
Section titled “Some chains show an error. Why?”A public explorer can refuse a request (too many requests from one connection, or a bot check) or not answer in time. The scan then asks again through the Nymra relay. A chain that still fails is shown as unread, never as clean. Wait a minute, then press Retry in the result (Try again when no chain could be read).
A chain can also show as partial when the explorer’s index misses transactions that the chain itself says the address sent. The result says how many are missing.
My score dropped after a new transaction. Why?
Section titled “My score dropped after a new transaction. Why?”New activity can create a new pattern: a transfer to a known wallet, a deposit to an exchange, a new chain. Open the findings to see which one moved the score.
Can I make an existing wallet private again?
Section titled “Can I make an existing wallet private again?”Not its past: history on a public chain is permanent. You can stop adding links, remove an ENS primary name, and move future activity to a new wallet that you fund and use with care. Each finding page ends with what you can do.
Can a finding be wrong?
Section titled “Can a finding be wrong?”Yes. Public data has innocent explanations: a shared funder can be a service, two wallets can share a counterparty by chance. That is why every finding has a confidence and shows its evidence. Open the evidence and judge for yourself.
Why does a contract get a different scan?
Section titled “Why does a contract get a different scan?”A contract’s traffic says nothing about a person’s habits. For a contract, and for an address that is itself a service (an exchange wallet, a deposit address, a bridge or bot wallet, or one with 50,000 or more transactions on a chain), only the public identity and cross-chain rules run, and it makes no links. The result says what kind of address it is instead of showing a band. See How a scan works.
Which chains are supported?
Section titled “Which chains are supported?”31 EVM chains, Robinhood Chain included. A scan in the Terminal reads the 17 that are on by default; the engine reads the others when it is asked for them. Solana is not part of V1. See Supported chains.
Does Nymra store the addresses I scan?
Section titled “Does Nymra store the addresses I scan?”No. The scan runs in your browser, and the relay that helps when an explorer refuses keeps no log. The public explorers and nodes your browser asks do see your IP address together with the address you scan; use a VPN if that matters to you. See Privacy and data.
Where is the code?
Section titled “Where is the code?”The detectors, the score formula and the relay are open source under the MIT license, in the
privacy-scan repository. The website’s own code is not public.
I pasted my seed phrase into the scan field. Is it gone?
Section titled “I pasted my seed phrase into the scan field. Is it gone?”The Terminal refuses it: the field empties at once and nothing is sent anywhere. If you ever gave it to a website, an app or a person, move your funds to a new wallet with a new seed phrase. See Safety.
Someone in a DM says they are Nymra support.
Section titled “Someone in a DM says they are Nymra support.”They are not. Admins never DM first, and Nymra never asks for a seed phrase, a private key, a transaction or an approval. See Safety.
