Anonymous Server Hosting paid in Bitcoin.

You sign up with email only. No name. No address. No phone. The signup form has two fields: email and password. Within seconds your account exists in our AES-256-encrypted customer database alongside roughly four hundred others.

You pick a service from the catalog: an SMTP relay tier, a dedicated server, a managed PowerMTA setup, an IP warming engagement. Each product has a fixed price in euros. The euro price is the canonical figure. Cryptocurrency conversions are calculated against live rates we fetch hourly from our own server.

When you place the order, an invoice generates on our BTCPay Server. The invoice shows the euro price and the Bitcoin equivalent at the moment of generation. You have fifteen minutes to pay at the locked rate. After fifteen minutes the invoice regenerates with the current market price.

The invoice presents two payment options: an on-chain Bitcoin address and a Lightning Network invoice. For amounts under one hundred euros we recommend Lightning because on-chain fees can represent a noticeable percentage of the transaction. For larger amounts on-chain is fine; fees become negligible relative to the order size.

Once you pay, BTCPay Server detects the payment. On Lightning this is instant. On-chain we wait for one confirmation, which typically takes ten to twenty minutes depending on mempool conditions. Once confirmed, the invoice marks paid. Our provisioning system picks up the paid invoice and assigns a technician.

For SMTP and warming services, provisioning happens within twenty-four hours. Dedicated servers and complex configurations take longer because the work is actual engineering, not just a virtual machine spin-up. We tell you the delivery timeline before you pay, and we hit it.

Bitcoin payment to ASH does not make you anonymous to the Bitcoin network. That is a separate concern, addressed by how you obtain and route the Bitcoin before it reaches our address. If you bought your Bitcoin on a KYC exchange and sent it directly to your wallet and from there to us, the chain is traceable.

What Bitcoin payment to us does give you is the absence of a third-party processor in the chain. There is no BitPay record. No Stripe record. No bank ACH trace. The payment exists on the Bitcoin blockchain (public but pseudonymous) and in our internal BTCPay records (encrypted, on our servers, purged on schedule).

For stronger privacy properties, two things matter at your end. First, the source of your Bitcoin (CoinJoin, non-KYC exchange, mining proceeds, peer purchase). Second, the wallet that sends payment (well-segregated from your identity). We can advise on the first point at signup if you ask. The second is yours to handle.

For maximum privacy on the payment leg specifically, we recommend Monero. Monero transactions are confidential by design: amounts, sender, and receiver are all cryptographically hidden from anyone watching the blockchain. We accept Monero on the same self-hosted infrastructure. If your threat model requires payment privacy, Monero is the better rail.

Bitcoin remains a strong choice when you want liquidity and broad wallet support, and when payment privacy on the chain itself is less critical than avoiding third-party processors. Most of our customers pay in Bitcoin for this reason.
