Kamatera alternatives — FAQ
What is the best no-KYC alternative to Kamatera?
NoctisNode: anonymous signup, no logs, root VPS from $6/month in Helsinki (Finland), paid in Monero, Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ethereum, USDT, USDC or SOL. Among the providers above, the ones flagged “No KYC” need no identity documents either.
Can I pay for a VPS with Monero or Bitcoin without an account?
Yes. NoctisNode issues a per-account deposit address and credits the balance as soon as the on-chain transaction confirms; no card, bank transfer or ID is involved.
Is switching away from Kamatera difficult?
Not usually. Take a snapshot of your data, provision the new server (roughly 35 seconds at NoctisNode), move DNS, then cancel Kamatera after the DNS TTL has expired. Anything containerised moves almost unchanged.
