Use Cases

Peer-to-Peer Crypto Payments

Nimiq aims to achieve Satoshi Nakamoto's original idea: Peer-to-peer electronic cash that everyone can easily use in everyday life. Nimiq is its own Layer-1 blockchain - it’s not just a token on top of an existing blockchain or a fork of an existing technology. NIM is the native payment coin, the cryptocurrency used in the Nimiq ecosystem. Nimiq facilitates decentralized, borderless, permissionless, verifiable, and neutral crypto payments.

Cross Border Remittances and Payments

Nimiq facilitates cross-border payments and remittances through its browser-based blockchain technology, enabling quick, low-cost transactions without intermediaries. Its user-friendly interface and fast confirmation times make international money transfers efficient and secure, providing an accessible financial solution for those with limited banking options.
