Arculus Hardware Wallet for Cryptocurrency
The market cap of cryptocurrencies has been unstoppable for the last few years. With so much money poured into this space, security has been a great concern.

Deeper Connect Pico Review – Decentralized VPN & Gateway
Update: As of July 2022
It has been several months since I received this product (I had backed their Kickstarter project). I have been using it ever since. So far, no issues with it. The ad blocking feature is my favorite. It blocks almost all web ads. But the Youtube ad blocking feature sucks. You need a separate youtube mobile app for this to work and the app is horrible.
Some sites do not work, one example is semrush.com. It did work after I routed semrush site through Asia. Sometimes, google services lag. For example, google analytics throws 'please try again' message but works properly when refreshed a couple of times. I have also noticed that youtube videos sometimes buffer which is annoying. For this reason, I am downgrading my ratings to 3.9/5.
If you are planning to get it, please have a backup modem router functioning alongside. I have two Wifi connections.
