Mullvad will no longer be able to accept DKK from its customers (mullvad.net)

Danish banks have implemented significant restrictions on how Danish kroner (DKK) used outside Denmark can be repatriated back into Denmark.

Due to these circumstances, which are unfortunately beyond Mullvad’s control, Mullvad will no longer be able to accept DKK from its customers. We will continue to credit DKK received until the end of the month, but considering postal delays, it is best to stop sending it immediately.

It's more related to the fact that once you join the Eurozone (ERM II) there's no way to take it back, and for some reason this resonates negatively with Danish people. AFAIK there's been opinion polls the suggest that a referendum on the matter would (still) not pass. Also AFAIK the Danish political agenda does not lean particularly for or against it otherwise, as you said, it's technically moot either way.

You do realize that Danish and Dutch are two entirely different people in two entirely different countries?

Ha ha, sorry, I'm having an early morning moment. I've kept talking about Dutch instead of Danish, I'll fix it.
