Terrible

This VPN is terrible. It’s slow, it has no features, it doesn’t work reliably and the team behind it has no interest in trying to help users or let you know when features are coming. There is no geo location options and there is no staking. There are way better options out there pass on this.

I want it to work.. it just doesn’t

MacOS 11.2 - set up the account got excited and didn’t work. Connects but won’t let me browse the web for some reason (or it’s that slow where my browser is just spinning). Nonetheless I hope they take customer feedback and make this product a success, has huge potential.

PAINFULLY SLOW. Not actually decentralized or different

You can only buy from the default curators and they all have dirty IPs that are blocked by Netflix and forums. Normal people can’t sell bandwidth. This is basically a normal VPN provider but REALLY SLOW.

Quality Private VPN, Although Performance Varies

I LOVE this VPN. It’s crypto powered, so it’s anonymous, and it’s fully open source so you can verify that the software collects no logs, none, nothing, nada. My only problem is that performance varies a lot and sometimes is barely usable, although this is improving.

It’s also very cheap, and there’s no subscriptions, only pay for what you use. Dip your toes in for just $US 1, which has lasted me a little more than a month on two devices, but this will depend on your usage.

Overall, give it a go, it’s private, secure, and cheap.

Awesome Product - No Complaints

This is a great product. Easy to use, safer than normal VPNs, incredibly cheap and a great way to use the Orchid Crypto currency. Only took me 10 min to set up and you can turn it on and off with ease.

Not user friendly at all

I own some of this crypto and I really believe in the idea, but the problem is that the app isn’t friendly enough to reach a larger audience. It needs to be refined. They should define some of the language within the app so that people don’t feel like they’re reading a foreign language.

Also offering insight as to where to find a Wiregaurd (or any!) config file for properly setting up your connection would make sense if you want to build a larger userbase.

Seriously, this app isn’t for everyone and even though I’m sure you are all capable of figuring it out, I’m sure that most of you will find another less difficult solution to your privacy concerns.

Simple, Effective

I appreciate the ease of use and that you only pay for what you use. It’s also neat to see platforms employing blockchain and crypto tech to achieve goals and provide secure services!!

Decentralized VPN offers uniquely superior privacy

Only a decentralized VPN can offer this level of privacy. It's super easy to use. Paying with Orchid OXT crypto makes it even more secure.

Could be something

Like the idea, but the app is a smidge clunky, not super user friendly. Watch out though, if they really catch fire, Orchid could become the gold standard of privacy. For now, just a decent app.
