Came to the same conclusion. But Mullvad had the BCH problem and their website and font did hurt my eyes.
So IVPN was the only one in the market I could take serious, because ppl I like recommended it, a lot of good information on their website tells me they stand for privacy, education, they seem to be real Bitcoiners,
AND
they are the only VPN provider I could find who take UX serious and build a working GUI(!) for every OS/system you could imagine! 👍
For example it's running smoothly on Arch 🥳
I didn't know the last thing about about IVPN. Doesn't really bother me if Mullvad accepts BCH, as long as they offer a way to pay with Bitcoin/Monero. IVPN has less servers than Mullvad I think, but are legit, can speak from my own experience.
More servers is a good argument. Would like to know the total number of users (is it a big crowd or just a few hundred?).
btw, I tried some torrenting and speed was no problem. The only thing that sucked was that the mail provider of my flatmate seems to block IVPN servers. So we needed to tunnel his Thunderbird. :/
Mullvad seems to be the most well known and larger of the two I believe
Stop shilling for scams. Mullvad and IVPN haven't even pretended to be legit in over a year, they openly announced that they would completely break port forwarding for all users. I don't even understand why you ever would have thought they were legit before that. Last I checked, the only legit VPN left standing was AirVPN.
I like you, sorry for being insulting in my other reply.
