02
Accepted coins and networks
The asset and its network form one payment method. Select the exact pair in Billing and use only the address shown for it; a transfer on another chain may be unrecoverable.
If you want the amount you send to line up with USD list prices, a dollar stablecoin is the simplest choice: USDT on TRC-20 or USDC on ERC-20. If payment privacy matters most, Monero is the coin to hold.
03
Operator addresses instead of a payment processor
Most hosts that take crypto route it through a processor such as Cryptomus, BitPay or CoinGate, and some add an identity step there, as the comparison below shows.
Tungsto's Billing page lists fixed receiving addresses supplied by the operator, one for each coin and network. Your transfer goes from your wallet to that address; at launch, it is credited within about a minute once the network confirmations are reached and recorded in USD in your account ledger, which you check before ordering. Privex also runs its own gateway, but its accounts are tied to a registered email; Tungsto accounts are not.
The addresses are shared and fixed per coin and network, not generated per order, so keep your transaction reference and always copy the address from your own Billing page.
04
How to pay for a dedicated server with crypto, step by step
Account creation is open now. Steps 3 to 5 start when your Billing page shows deposits enabled.
- Create a username account. Username of 3 to 32 characters, password of 12 to 200, then save the one-time recovery code offline: there is no email reset.
- Price your order. Pick a configuration, a region, an operating system and a 7-day or 30-day term.
- Select the coin and network in Billing. Copy the address shown for that pair and check it in your wallet before approving.
- Send and keep the record. The minimum deposit is $20 in crypto; save the transaction reference, amount, network and time.
- Order from your USD balance. Your deposit is credited within about a minute once the network confirmations are reached; then place the order. The paid term starts when the order is accepted, so your model's provisioning target (20 to 90 minutes) runs inside it.

Crypto checkout compared: Tungsto, RedSwitches, HOSTKEY, Hivelocity, Cherry Servers, Privex
How six hosts take crypto for dedicated servers, read from their own pages. Prices are the lowest US listing we could source; a dash means not stated in those sources.
Crypto payment for dedicated servers, as of 25 September 2026
| Provider | Crypto collected through | Coins listed | Monero | Identity step with crypto | Billing | US locations | Lowest US listing found |
|---|
| Tungsto | Operator addresses in Billing | 7 | Yes | None at standard signup; no email | 7 or 30 days | Dallas, Ashburn, Portland | $55 per 30 days (Ryzen 5 3600, 64 GB), no setup fee |
|---|
| RedSwitches | Cryptomus (handles crypto AML) | 16 | Yes | No KYC to open an account when paying in crypto | Monthly | Several US metros, incl. Washington D.C. | $129.58/mo (Xeon E-2274G, D.C.) |
|---|
| HOSTKEY | BitPay | 13 | No | BitPay ID required | Hourly or monthly | New York | — |
|---|
| Hivelocity | BitPay, Bitcoin only | 1 | No | — | Monthly; hourly on some servers | Dallas, among others | Varies with inventory |
|---|
| Cherry Servers | CoinGate and BVNK | 15+, incl. Lightning | No | iDenfy ID check for cards and automatic top-ups | Hourly from €0.08, or fixed term | Chicago | — |
|---|
| Privex | Own payment gateway | 8 | Yes | No ID step stated; account tied to a registered email | Monthly | USA | $210/mo + $50 setup (DX64-SSD, 64 GB) |
|---|
Where others fit better. Cherry Servers, HOSTKEY and some Hivelocity servers bill by the hour, which beats a 7-day term for a one- or two-day job. RedSwitches lists more coins and US metros and advertises 10-minute delivery; Cherry Servers deploys pre-built machines in 12 minutes. Tungsto's provisioning target is 20 to 90 minutes by model, because a whole physical machine is prepared for your order with the operating system you chose.

Objections, answered before you pay
What will it cost in total? The list price for the term, minus any volume discount, with no setup fee and no Tungsto deposit fee; your only extra is the network or exchange fee on the transfer. The minimum deposit is $20, enough for a first week on the $17 Ryzen 5 3600. Four Ryzen 5 3600 servers for 30 days total $202.40 after the 8% discount. Extras such as more IPv4 or hardware RAID are quoted separately.
Who am I paying? Tungsto is operated by gpucrypt LLC, a US company in Staten Island, New York. Prices for all 15 configurations are published, and the Terms, Refund Policy and Acceptable Use Policy are published ahead of launch.
When can I order? This is the launch preview: create your username account now; deposits and orders open in your account at launch. Do not send funds before your Billing page shows deposits enabled.
Will I be asked for ID? Not at standard signup: there is no field for an email, phone number, legal name, ID document or face scan. We keep operational records (payment references, ledger entries, orders, sessions, support messages), and account-specific requests such as refunds need separate proof of account ownership. No KYC means no identity check at signup, not anonymity.
How long until the server is ready? Two steps run in sequence: your deposit is credited to your USD ledger within about a minute once the network confirmations are reached, then the server is provisioned, with a published target of 20 to 45 minutes for the entry Ryzen and Xeon models and up to 90 minutes for storage and large EPYC machines. Fund ahead of the day you need the server.
What are the conditions? Each term is prepaid for 7 days or exactly 30 days and is non-refundable once the server is provisioned. Renewal draws on your USD balance in the final 24 hours; if the balance is short, the server is suspended at expiry, held for a 72-hour grace period, then reclaimed for a secure wipe. There is no self-service cancellation.

Our recommendation
Choose Tungsto if you want a whole US server in Dallas, Ashburn or Portland, paid in BTC, XMR, USDT-TRC20 or another listed coin, with no email or ID on the account and a 7-day or 30-day term. The Ryzen 5 3600 at $55 per 30 days is the entry point; the EPYC 7402P at $159 per 30 days adds 24 cores and a 10 Gbps port; the Xeon Silver 4310 storage server brings 192 TB raw for $279 per 30 days.
Look elsewhere if you need hourly billing, delivery within minutes, servers outside the US, card payment, or anonymity rather than a no-KYC signup.
What to do now: create your username account, save the recovery code and shortlist your configuration, so you can fund and order as soon as Billing shows deposits enabled.

Crypto payment FAQ
Which cryptocurrencies can I use to buy a dedicated server?
Seven: BTC, ETH, USDT on TRC-20 (TRON), USDC on ERC-20 (Ethereum), XMR, SOL and LTC, each on its own network. All of them fund one USD balance that pays for any of the 15 configurations.
Can I pay for a dedicated server with Bitcoin Lightning?
No. Bitcoin payments are on-chain only; Lightning is not an accepted route. Use the BTC on Bitcoin address shown in Billing.
Can I pay with USDT on Ethereum, BNB Chain or another network?
Our USDT payment guide covers TRC-20 on TRON. Billing lists every enabled coin-and-network pair; if a network is not listed there, do not use it. A same-named token on another chain is a different payment method and may be unrecoverable.
Does paying with Monero make my server anonymous?
No. Monero is a privacy-focused coin, but paying with it does not make server use anonymous. Account records and server activity remain subject to our Terms, Acceptable Use Policy and valid legal process.
Why are prices in USD, and what exchange rate applies?
Prices are fixed in US dollars, so a Ryzen 5 3600 costs $55 per 30 days whichever coin you use. No locked rate is quoted before you send; your transfer is credited within about a minute once the network confirmations are reached and recorded as a USD ledger entry, which you check before ordering, and every order, renewal and volume discount runs on that one balance.
Is crypto the only way to pay?
Yes. Accounts are funded only in cryptocurrency, from a $20 minimum deposit (USD 20 equivalent in crypto); there is no card or PayPal option, and signup needs no billing name or address.
Can I get unused crypto balance back?
Yes. You can request a withdrawal of unused cleared balance in a coin that previously funded your account. Requests are reviewed manually, and blockchain fees may reduce the amount sent.
