Loki uses onion routing while the new project NYM uses a mix net with cover traffic that does not give any nodes any meta data whatsoever.

Monero has a fork called Loki for those that haven't heard about it. Any thoughts on it?
From my research its the only monero fork that isn't just a monero clone with some numbers changed. They've implemented an interesting incentive model using their nodes to replace the Tor network. Does anyone know other projects that are working on something similar?
What intrigued me was that each master node is like an exit tor node, and if traffic gets routed to it, the node operator gets a payout. Users of the Lokinet (mixnet) don't need to hold any loki, its free to use just like Tor.
