# Bitcoin Node VPS — bitcoind, No KYC, USDT or BTC

![NulNet Bitcoin node abstract: lattice and local NVMe slabs](https://nulnet.com/img/theme-bitcoin.png) Run Bitcoin Core on a no-ID VPS: a pruned node fits Ranger ($12.50 list), archival wants Storage or metal. Live-rate invoice in USDT or BTC.

**Short answer** Download Bitcoin Core from the official source, keep blocks and chainstate on NVMe, and open port 8333 when you want the node to accept inbound peers. A pruned node fits Ranger; archival and big dbcache want Vanguard, Sentinel or dedicated metal.

NulNet: VPS from $3/mo and dedicated from $30.80/mo annual. The map spans twenty-one locations — Reykjavik (Iceland) and Zurich (Switzerland) among them, plus Singapore, Dubai, Cape Town and fourteen others. Signup is email plus a 12-character password, or token-only. No KYC. Checkout is crypto-only across BTC, XMR, ETH, BNB, SOL, LTC, TRX, XRP, DOGE, DASH, ADA, GRAM (TON), and USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20/BEP-20/SPL). No payload or guest traffic logs; connection metadata ≤24h. DDoS included. One SKN company, one crypto checkout. Deploy at https://nulnet.com/deploy/.

## What people actually run

One daemon does the work: [Bitcoin Core](https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/) with [Bitcoin Core: running a full node](https://bitcoin.org/en/full-node) as the field guide. The variables that matter on a VPS are disk (blocks and chainstate want NVMe), prune (a bounded node versus a full archive), inbound peers (port 8333 open or closed), and initial block download time, which RAM and disk end summarize. Billing has its own logic: pay the invoice in BTC at a live rate, or in USDT when the hosting bill should not swing with the very coin the node validates.

VPS from $3* (fund $50+), storage 1–5 TB NVMe from $24/mo annual-eff, dedicated with IPMI from $30.80/mo. Crypto invoice, no KYC.

## Playbook

From invoice to IBD
- Pruned: Ranger. Archival or heavy dbcache: Vanguard / Sentinel or Dedicated.
- Install from [Bitcoin Core](https://bitcoincore.org/en/download/). Keep blocks on NVMe.
- Romania or Iceland are common. Amsterdam if peers are at EU IXes.

## Sizing and placement

A pruned node is a modest tenant: 4 GB RAM and NVMe headroom carry it, which puts Ranger (4 vCPU / 8 GB, $12.50 list, $10.00 annual-eff) in the comfortable zone and Sentry (2 vCPU / 4 GB, $7.50 / $6.00) at the floor. An archival node grows without bound — check the current chain size on the project's site before ordering, then prefer Sentinel (640 GB NVMe) or dedicated metal, where the [storage ladder](https://nulnet.com/storage/) and whole-core units sit on the same account. Placement follows peers: Bucharest or Reykjavik for a personal node, Amsterdam when connection counts and EU exchange latency matter. Every tier ships ECC RAM, and the checkout stays token-or-email with no ID.

Do I have to use assumevalid or my own flags? Your node, your flags — the host never touches bitcoind config. Root means every setting, from prune size to peer limits, is yours to argue with.

Can I pay the node's hosting in Bitcoin? Yes. The invoice quotes BTC at a live rate; choose USDT when you want the bill dollar-stable instead of riding the same market the node validates.

KYC to run a node? No. Signup takes a token or an email plus a 12-character password, then a crypto invoice — no documents, no phone, no card.

Does the VPS line accept inbound connections on 8333? Yes. Ports are yours to open; the unmetered uplink absorbs peer traffic, and included DDoS filtering handles the junk that public nodes attract.
