## Summary

BTCPay Server’s Docker setup will no longer preserve onion access by default: users who rely on Tor must explicitly opt in when they next update. Those who do not may lose access to their BTCPay instance via its .onion address, though other access methods may remain available. Bitcoin payments themselves are unaffected; the change concerns privacy-preserving access to self-hosted BTCPay servers.
