<p>Mullvad supports the future of networking <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IPv6">IPv6</a>. Their network allows users to <a href="https://mullvad.net/en/blog/2014/9/15/ipv6-support/">access services hosted on IPv6</a> as opposed to other providers who block IPv6 connections.</p>
<h5><span class="badge badge-success">Remote port forwarding</span></h5>
<p>Remote <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding">port forwarding</a> is allowed on Mullvad, see <a href="https://mullvad.net/help/port-forwarding-and-mullvad/">Port forwarding with Mullvad VPN</a>.</p>
<h5><span class="badge badge-success">Accepts Bitcoin</span></h5>

<p>IVPN has undergone a <a href="https://cure53.de/audit-report_ivpn.pdf">no-logging audit from Cure53</a> which concluded in agreement with IVPN's no-logging claim. However, IVPN has not undergone a more comprehensive security audit by an independent third party, and therefore cannot be strongly recommended at this time.</p><p>We have still chosen to list it on this page with the assumption that an audit will be published soon. <a href="https://nitter.net/ivpnnet/status/1181954975687163905">IVPN has hired Cure53</a> to undertake a comprehensive audit covering the IVPN website, public and internal server infrastucture. They expect the audit to begin in November 2019 and be completed by the 6 auditors in January 2020.</p>
<h5><span class="badge badge-success">77+ Servers</span></h5>
<p>IVPN has 77 servers in 31 countries at the time of writing this page. Typically the more servers a provider offers, the better. IVPN has a decent (but not exceptional) server count that will most likely provide adequate coverage to most users.</p>
<h5><span class="badge badge-success">Remote port forwarding</span></h5>
<p>Remote <a href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Port_forwarding">port forwarding</a> is possible with a Pro plan. Port forwarding <a href="https://www.ivpn.net/knowledgebase/81/How-do-I-activate-port-forwarding.html">can be activated</a> via the client area. Port forwarding is only available on IVPN when <a href="https://www.ivpn.net/knowledgebase/116/Port-forwarding-is-not-working-why.html">using OpenVPN and is disabled on US servers</a>.</p>
<h5><span class="badge badge-success">Accepts Bitcoin</span></h5>
<p>In addition to accepting credit/debit cards and PayPal, IVPN accepts <strong>Bitcoin</strong> and <strong>cash/local currency</strong> (on annual plans) as anonymous forms of payment.</p>
