Services that accept Bitcoin / LN? \ stacker news ~bitcoin

1851 sats \ 23 comments \ @handsome_latino 10 May bitcoin

Some time ago I stumbled upon a big txt-like list of online services that accept payments through BTC or even better the LN.

In particular I am looking for a list of VPS, bonus sats if you have used an anonymous VPS and can give me a quick review on it.

Thanks in advance!

I'll make use of the replies today, in my research on a VPS to use. additionally, I'd like to know if you find any bitcoin VPS that provides GPUs w/ no KYC and also priced in our hard money.

RackNerd

Thanks. This thread makes me a bit worried though https://www.reddit.com/r/VPS/comments/188gxm7/why_is_racknerd_so_cheap/

They've been around for years now and I have a few things there that have run fine, they're not super sensitive or high performance applications though... dev boxes, a torrent tracker, jumphost...

If you're running something high value then you'll have to spend up, I like RackNerd as a cheap option... my super serious stuff is a physical box I own colocated in a datacenter

17 sats \ 3 replies \ @handsome_latino OP 23 Jun

Understood. Nothing too sensitive, so I could definitely give it a try as their cheapest option is very affordable. Thank you!

If I may know, what do you use for your physical metal box?

0 sats \ 2 replies \ @justin_shocknet 23 Jun

Physical box has a lot of fast storage and obviously doesn't share CPU so it's kind of a swiss army knife for Bitcoiny things, a nostr relay, backups etc

0 sats \ 1 reply \ @handsome_latino OP 24 Jun

Sorry, I meant which company/service are you using? Or you bought the box by yourself and place it somewhere?

0 sats \ 0 replies \ @justin_shocknet 24 Jun

The latter, yea there's incredibly good deals on off-lease servers on eBay... enterprise grade stuff from Dell or HP with redundant PSU's and solid mainboards

If you buy one of those you can usually have it shipped directly to a datacenter, remote hands into it, and then install something like proxmox

That's called colocation, some datacenters only offer big room sized cages but even in those you can usually find smaller hosting/IT companies that will rent out a single U with power and bandwidth... usually $50-$150/mo depending on options like A+B power or dual 1Gb to 10GE

You can buy prepaid credit cards and gift cards for a lot of big brand stores, restaurants and more.

Disclosure: I'm not paid by them for this suggestion unfortunately :)
