Buy a VPS with USDC.

Pay for cloud hosting with USD Coin (USDC) and skip the exchange-rate guessing game. Because your bithost balance is denominated in USD, depositing a USD-pegged stablecoin means what you send is what you get — 50 USDC adds exactly $50.00 to your balance. Deploy on DigitalOcean, Vultr, or Linode with no KYC and no credit card, the way we have run things since 2014.

USDC is a fully reserved, regulated stablecoin issued by Circle, redeemable 1:1 for US dollars — a predictable way to fund a server without touching a card. Prefer Bitcoin? You can also buy a VPS with Bitcoin — USDC and BTC draw from the same balance.

Servers start at $0.015/hr. Billed hourly. Delete when done.

Why pay with USDC?

A stablecoin behaves differently from Bitcoin at checkout. Here is what makes USDC a practical way to pay for a server.

No exchange-rate risk

USDC tracks the US dollar, so the amount you deposit is the amount that lands on your balance. No volatility between payment and credit.

Predictable budgeting

Top up the exact figure you plan to spend. Great for teams and recurring workloads that need clean, round numbers.

No KYC, no card

Email signup and a stablecoin payment. No identity check, no card on file, no bank statement tied to your server.

Regulated & reserved

USDC is issued by Circle, fully backed by cash and short-dated US treasuries, and attested monthly — a stablecoin you can hold between top-ups with confidence.

Which USDC network should I use?

USDC exists natively on several blockchains. Your deposit screen shows the networks we currently support — always send only to a deposit address that matches the network you are sending from. A fresh address is generated for each top-up.

Ethereum (ERC-20)

The original and most widely supported USDC network. Use it if your USDC already lives on Ethereum; settlement is rock-solid, though gas fees make it better suited to larger deposits.

Solana

Native USDC on Solana settles in about a second with fees of a fraction of a cent — the cheapest and fastest option for routine top-ups when your funds are on Solana.

Common questions

Can I really pay for a VPS with USDC?

Yes. USD Coin (USDC) is one of the 13+ cryptocurrencies bithost accepts. Top up your balance with USDC and deploy servers on DigitalOcean, Vultr, or Linode — no card and no KYC required.

Does 100 USDC equal $100 of hosting?

Effectively, yes. Your balance is held in USD and USDC is pegged 1:1 to the dollar, so a 100 USDC deposit credits about $100.00, minus only the network fee you pay to send it. No conversion spread is applied on stablecoins.

Which network is cheapest for USDC?

Sending native USDC over Solana is typically the cheapest and fastest, with fees of a fraction of a cent. Ethereum (ERC-20) is the most widely supported but costs more in gas. Always send to the deposit address that matches your chosen network, and check the dashboard for the networks we currently support.

What is the difference between USDC and paying with Bitcoin?

USDC is pegged to the dollar, so there is no price movement between when you send and when it credits — ideal for exact budgeting. Bitcoin can rise or fall while it confirms. Both land in the same USD balance, so the choice is purely about whether you want stablecoin predictability or to spend BTC you already hold.

What is the minimum top-up?

The minimum is $20 USD equivalent, which in USDC is about 20 USDC plus the network fee. Your balance carries over month to month with no expiry.

Can I mix USDC with other coins?

Yes. All deposits land in the same USD-denominated balance, so you can fund with USDC today and Bitcoin tomorrow. Servers are billed from that single balance regardless of how you topped it up.
