Njalla’s reputation rests on its domain service, where it acts as the registrant on your behalf, and on a principled privacy stance. Its VPS line is small and Sweden-only: the entry plan is about €15 a month for 1 core, 1.5 GB of RAM, 15 GB of disk and 1.5 TB of traffic, paid in Bitcoin, Monero or by card, with an e-mail or XMPP address as the only account detail.
CheapServ shares the no-KYC stance and the coins (plus Ethereum and USDT), but is a hosting company rather than a registrar: six locations on three continents, VPS from $3.29 with NVMe and DDR5 ECC, dedicated servers, GPUs and Windows RDP, all provisioned automatically in under a minute.
