I am looking for a VPN with the following specs...
- Is either only a dedicated VPN provider (Does not offer shared VPNs) or is both a shared VPN provider and offers dedicated VPN servers
- Low price (If possible)
- Dedicated VPN server offers port forwarding (Many ports available, not just a few)
- Private (Zero logs, good juristriction)
- Multi-hop. Can connect to shared VPN server and hop to dedicated VPN server. (If VPN provider offers static VPN servers)
- Linux (GUI prefferred, CLI will do)
- Accepts bitcoin or other crypto for payment
I want to host servers behind a VPN. Do not want to use a VPS since the VPS is not under my control being off-site. However running a server at home without a VPN will expose my home IP address.
I am not going to be doing anything illegal nor will I be doing any torrenting.
I am considering just renting a server. The benefit of self hosting over a VPN is that I control my server completely, and I am not renting a server that I cannot physically reach.
