Use case · Bitcoin · survey of 10 November 2026
Bitcoin is the easiest coin to hold and the most visible to pay with. This page covers the steps and what the ledger shows afterwards.
Quick answer
How do I buy a VPS with Bitcoin?
To buy a VPS with Bitcoin at Gloamport, choose BTC at checkout and send the exact amount from your own wallet to the address shown. The payment is credited after 2 network confirmations, with no ID document asked. Plans start at $3.74 a month on the 12-month term. Bitcoin is a public ledger, so the payment stays visible.
Choose a plan and a term
Pick one of the eight plans and 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. Ember $3.74, Dusk $5.25, Gloam $8.25, Night $13.50, Aurora $20.62, Halo $25.87, Nebula $42.04 and Zenith $116.25 a month on the 12-month term ($7.48, $10.50, $16.50, $27.00, $41.24, $51.74, $84.08 and $232.50 a month on 1 or 3 months; plans under $15 a month (Ember and Dusk) are sold for 3 months at least).
Create your account
Your account is a random account number created on the spot. It is the only thing you need to sign in; an email address can be added later or never.
Select BTC as the coin
The checkout shows a Bitcoin address and the exact amount to send.
Send the exact amount from your wallet
Send it from a wallet whose keys you hold. Payments go to wallet addresses that Gloamport holds itself. No third-party payment processor sits between you and us, so no payment company receives your order details or your transaction.
Wait for 2 confirmations
The payment is credited after 2 network confirmations. 1 hour at most after the payment is confirmed; most VPS are running within a few minutes.
Log in over SSH
A person on the team builds each VPS once its payment is confirmed. The dashboard shows the progress, then the IP address as soon as the VPS boots. Root over SSH. Paste a public key at checkout and password login stays switched off; leave it empty and the team sets a temporary root password, shown in your dashboard, that you change at first login.

Monero hiding sender, receiver and amount is stated by the Monero Project. Bitcoin’s ledger is public; Gloamport’s own account records apply to both coins.
It reveals the paying address, the amount and the time to anyone who looks. Monero hides the sender, the receiver and the amount of a payment by default. Bitcoin, USDT and the other coins are public ledgers: anyone who links an address to you can see what it paid and when.
A Bitcoin address carries no name. It starts to carry one when it is linked to you: by an exchange that holds your ID, by a purchase you made earlier, or by a payment you reuse. Monero keeps a payment off the public record, but not out of your account: Gloamport still links your orders, the IP addresses of your VPS and the transaction ID you declare to your account number.
Pay from a wallet whose keys you hold. An exchange that knows your identity also knows which address you withdrew to, so a direct payment puts its record of you one step from our address.
A wallet funded earlier puts a step between the two, but the ledger still shows the path. Neither route makes the payment private. It only changes who holds the record.
No. Payments go to wallet addresses that Gloamport holds itself. No third-party payment processor sits between you and us, so no payment company receives your order details or your transaction.
According to Gloamport’s survey of 10 November 2026, 14 of 42 active crypto VPS hosts name a third-party processor, 9 run their own gateway and 19 do not say. For example, the SwissLayer and VPS.BG pages state a self-hosted setup, while HostSailor’s sends crypto payments through CoinGate.
Not at Gloamport: the coins accepted are BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, XMR, and Lightning is not among them.
If Lightning is what you need, the survey found 4 hosts that list it, including MyNymBox through its self-hosted BTCPay Server and TLDBunker. TLDBunker was still pre-launch on 10 November 2026.
Monero is the better choice when you do not want the payment on a public ledger. Bitcoin is the better choice when it is the coin you already hold and the visibility of the payment does not matter to you.
The Monero route is on How do I buy a VPS with Monero (XMR)?, and the side-by-side is on Monero or Bitcoin: which is more private for paying a VPS?.
The price in dollars is the same in every coin. For the full range of prices in the survey, read How much does a no-KYC VPS cost in 2026?.

Gloamport credits a Bitcoin payment after 2 network confirmations. A Monero payment needs 10, about 20 minutes.
No, not on the ledger. Monero hides the sender, the receiver and the amount of a payment by default. Bitcoin, USDT and the other coins are public ledgers: anyone who links an address to you can see what it paid and when. Monero is the coin on the checkout that a public explorer does not display.
No. An order asks for three things: a plan, a coin and, only if you want one, an email address. There is no name field, no postal address, no phone number, no card and no identity document anywhere in the process.
You can send from any wallet or exchange withdrawal that accepts an address and an amount. The exchange then holds a record that links your identity to our address.
The dollar price is the same in every coin. No setup fee: you pay the price of the term you choose, on the first order and at every renewal.
