The story behind the private financial network.
Nethxeum was founded by Rony Katie with a vision to create the perfect synthesis of Bitcoin's monetary policy and Monero's privacy technology. The project began development in early 2025, forking the proven Monero v0.18.3.3 codebase.
The genesis block was mined on May 31, 2026, marking the official launch of the Nethxeum mainnet. The genesis message encapsulates the project's ethos:
"In a world of surveillance, privacy is not a crime, it is a right."
Since launch, Nethxeum has grown into an international community of privacy advocates, developers, and miners committed to preserving financial freedom.
Mission: To provide accessible, private, and sound digital money that cannot be censored, inflated, or surveilled.
Vision: A world where financial privacy is a fundamental right, not a privilege. Where every individual can transact freely without fear of surveillance or discrimination.
We believe that privacy and scarcity are not opposing forces — they are complementary properties that together create the foundation of truly free money.
Privacy must be mandatory, not optional. Every transaction is private — there is no "transparent mode" that could compromise users.
Hard-capped supply, predictable emission, no inflation. Monetary policy written in code, not subject to human manipulation.
No premine, no ICO, no developer tax. Everyone starts at zero and must mine to earn NTU.
ASIC-resistant mining ensures broad participation. No entity should control the network.
All code is MIT licensed and fully auditable. Security through transparency.
No corporate entity controls Nethxeum. Decisions are made through open community discussion and consensus.
