Hello everyone!

I am grubles, cofounder of the newly formed Bitcoin service: BitVPS. BitVPS is a brand-new provider specializing in Virtual Private Servers, Virtual Private Networks, Shell Accounts, and IRC Bouncers along with new features being planned right now. We also plan to offer a Bitcoin eSafe to protect your wallet. The eSafe will be encrypted and only the customer will know the passphrase to decrypt it.

Virtual Private Servers start at roughly 3 BTC (the price changes in real time to keep the dollar amount the same) and are hosted in Dallas at GNAX’s state of the art data center. All servers are protected by Cisco packet scrubbers at the core. Juniper Networks hardware is also at the core utilizing BGP to ensure your packets arrive at their destination over the most efficient route.

Being based in the continental US, we aim to provide exceptional service by enabling our customers to be in constant contact with us if they need a question asked or need a problem solved. We have a strong presence in IRC on the Freenode server and are trusted in the OTC Web of Trust. Just connect to Freenode and idle in #BTCVPS or query user 'grubles' or 'rg' for any question you need asked or you can email me at grubles@btcvps.net.

Test drive ANY of our VPS plans for 5 days for 50% of the cost of the plan. When you decide that you love it, just pay the rest of the plan cost. You can also upgrade your plan.

That site just links to actual providers. We are an actual provider. I don't see anything about any of those companies accepting BTC either. You don't have to ask nicely to get us to accept BTC, since we do from the start!

We aren't actually competing with the link you posted since we are US based at the moment, with our data center being located in Dallas, Texas.

I got a VPS from them... its pretty good.  I even got a "special surprise" because I was one of the first 10!  I don't know if that is still going on... but it was pretty good!  Their VPS-3 deal is a pretty good deal, in my opinion.  They provide extremely quality service, and I happen to have traded with one of the founders a bunch on #bitcoin-otc. 

Highly recommended!

I got a VPS too. These guys are good, it's not some cheesy over provisioned service like other providers offer. Hosted in a very good location too (GNAX Dallas), and run by guys that actually know what they are doing. +1 Recommended.

Just a bump for these guys.  I know these guys very well and can vouch for their professional and honest dealings in the BTC industry.  I know if I ever need a server they'll be the first place I go.

Good luck guys,

We are planning a hosting solution in Europe but I don't have many details to give you at this moment. For now, we are focusing on US customers.

Due to unexpected order volume on opening day, we ran out of IP addresses, but, we've got plenty more now and are ready for more sign-ups!

Pretty nice deals. Is possibility to use SSD disks in your configurations?

Edit: Btw I see pretty big gap between low-cost offers and high-cost. For example, 2GB RAM on server is nothing if you need to run some memory eating applications (like bitcoind, heh). However 24GB RAM is quite oposite. Some offer with 8-12GB RAM would be pretty nice.

Hey slush! We now have an upgrade option for 8 GB for only $60 more per month. Also, we can upgrade you to a 128 GB SSD for only $50 more per month.

Obviously, we accept BTC if you don't want to use USD Smiley

Visit http://www.btcvps.net/ for more information. If you need additional upgrades just contact us at sales@btcvps.net.
