Eight coins accepted — BTC, XMR, ETH, LTC, TRX, SOL, plus USDT on ERC-20 or TRC-20. One prepaid balance, drawn down as your servers run.
No KYC, ever — an email and a password open the account. No card, no recurring charge, no payment details kept on file.
Four Nordic constitutional jurisdictions — Sweden, Finland, Norway, Iceland. VPS in ~90 seconds, dedicated in ~30 minutes.
A card payment ties your server to a bank, a billing address and a legal identity before it ever boots. A crypto top-up does not. With Monero it is private by default; with Bitcoin and the rest it is pseudonymous — and in every case NordBastion never links the payment to an identity, because it never collects one.
Crypto settles directly, globally, without a card network deciding whether your country, your bank or your line of work is allowed. There is nothing to charge back and nothing to freeze — the payment confirms on-chain and your balance is credited. Useful precisely for the operators traditional processors quietly refuse.
You pay from a wallet you control, for the exact amount you choose, with no stored card and no standing authorisation to bill you again. The relationship is prepaid and explicit: you top up when you want to, the cost is drawn from the balance, and you can stop at any time.
Pick the coin that fits your priority — privacy, speed, low fees or a stable value. Monero and Bitcoin each have a dedicated page; the rest are credited to the same balance just as fast.

Confirmation times are typical, not guaranteed — they depend on network conditions and the fee you set. Balance is credited automatically on confirmation.
Ring signatures, RingCT and stealth addresses hide the amount, the sender and the receiver on-chain. Your top-up does not appear on a public ledger. The strongest payment-privacy option, and the most natural fit for a no-KYC host.
Monero VPSThe most widely held coin, settled on-chain in about ten minutes — or over the Lightning Network before you finish reading the QR. The easiest coin to acquire, and the one almost every wallet already holds.
Bitcoin VPSEmail and password. No identity document, no phone number, no card. The account exists the moment you confirm it.
Pick a coin, scan the QR from your wallet, send the amount. Your balance is credited the moment the network confirms.
Choose a Nordic bastion, an OS image and a term, confirm. Your VPS boots in about 90 seconds, the cost drawn from your balance.
A lot of hosts bolt a crypto gateway onto a business that still wants your ID. NordBastion is built the other way round: no identity is collected at any layer, and crypto is simply the honest way to pay for that. Eight coins, one prepaid balance, four Nordic jurisdictions.
If payment privacy is your priority, pay in Monero. If you want the path of least resistance, pay in Bitcoin — on-chain or Lightning. Either way, the server boots in about ninety seconds and nobody had to know your name.
The questions people ask before paying for a server with cryptocurrency on a host that runs no identity check.
Yes — cryptocurrency is the only payment method. You top up a prepaid balance in any of eight supported coins (Bitcoin, Monero, Ethereum, Litecoin, TRON, Solana, plus USDT on both the ERC-20 and TRC-20 networks) and the cost of your servers is drawn from it. There is no card billing, no PayPal, no bank wire and no recurring charge — you are never asked for payment details to keep on file.
No. Opening an account takes an email address and a password — nothing else. No identity document, no legal name, no phone number, no proof of address, ever. The crypto payment and the no-KYC signup are two independent layers: paying in crypto keeps the money private, and the no-identity signup keeps the account private. NordBastion is built so that both hold at once.
Monero (XMR). It is private by default — amounts, sender and receiver are hidden on-chain by ring signatures, RingCT and stealth addresses, so a top-up does not appear on a public ledger the way a Bitcoin payment does. If payment privacy is your priority, pay in Monero. See the dedicated Monero VPS page for the full reasoning.
A VPS is deployed in about 90 seconds once your balance is credited. Balance is credited as soon as the network confirms your top-up — seconds for Lightning; about a minute on TRON; a few minutes for most chains; up to about twenty minutes for an on-chain Bitcoin or Monero confirmation. A dedicated bare-metal server is provisioned in about 30 minutes.
Prices are quoted in USD and your balance is held in USD value. When you top up, the coin amount is calculated at the moment of payment, so volatility between top-ups never changes what a server costs. If you want to avoid price movement entirely, top up with a stablecoin such as USDT.
It stays as prepaid balance and is only spent while your servers run. There is no expiry trick and no forced subscription. You can close your account from the control panel at any time; any remaining balance is handled as described in the panel at closing time.
The payment is as private as the coin you choose: Monero is private by default; Bitcoin, Ethereum and the rest are pseudonymous on a public ledger. Either way, NordBastion never links a payment to an identity because it never collects one. Remember the third layer — your network path — is separate: use Tor or a VPS-hosted VPN if you also want to hide your IP at signup.
