Title: Best VPS for a node?
Post by: Evilish on February 13, 2014, 04:06:10 PM
So I was wondering as to which VPS provider is the most reliable for creating a node for BTC, LTC, and other alt-coins. I've heard that DigitalOcean is good and their price is cheap too, but if any of you can suggest some similar providers then it would be great.

Cinfu.com has quite a few package tiers and has servers in quite a few different countries.  I purchased a two year subscription from them and got it for half price with coupon code 50off which is valid on every package.  They also accept BTC!  Unlimited Bandwidth on every package, and more disk space than you'll typically need, with the coupon they are much less expensive than digital ocean as well.  Really the only thing you'll end up having to 'pay up' for is more CPU cores/more RAM.

I run several trading bots using their services, and have not had any problems, uptime is excellent and your box will come with a 10Mbit/s line.

So that's $3.75 a month with 50% off coupon code for the 512 mb RAM server? Pretty impressive I must say.
