A **Cobaltfell** VPS costs $10.49 to $129.87 a month on the 12-month term, for 2 to 16 dedicated vCPU, and $14.98 to $185.53 month to month (prices of 2 November 2026). Fell 8 has the best price per vCPU, $4.78. There is no setup fee, and you pay in crypto with no KYC.

## How many cores, for how long, in which city?

Choose a plan, a rental length and a location, then continue to [the checkout](https://cobaltfell.com/app/checkout/?lang=en). Every plan and rental length is priced in [the pricing table](https://cobaltfell.com/pricing/ "How much does a dedicated-vCPU VPS cost?").

## What does each plan cost?

Four plans, named after their count of dedicated vCPU. Each one is paid from your crypto balance for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months at a time; switch the term above the cards to see the monthly cost on it. **The price is the same in Amsterdam, Zurich and Bucharest.** At checkout you pick the term, the city, a Linux image and, if you want, an SSH key.

| Plan | Quantity | 30 days | 3 months | 6 months | 1 year |

## What does each plan include?

Every plan doubles the one before it: twice the vCPU, twice the RAM, twice the NVMe and twice the traffic. The ratio stays at 2 GB of RAM and 40 GB of NVMe per dedicated vCPU, so moving up a plan never leaves one resource behind.

| Plan | Dedicated vCPU | RAM | NVMe | Traffic a month | 12-month term, per month | Per vCPU | Month to month |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Fell 2 | 2 | 4 GB | 80 GB NVMe | 4 TB | $10.49 | $5.24 | $14.98 |
| Fell 4 | 4 | 8 GB | 160 GB NVMe | 8 TB | $19.49 | $4.87 | $27.84 |
| Fell 8 | 8 | 16 GB | 320 GB NVMe | 16 TB | $38.24 | $4.78 | $54.63 |
| Fell 16 | 16 | 32 GB | 640 GB NVMe | 32 TB | $129.87 | $8.11 | $185.53 |

**On every plan:**

- **vCPU:** A vCPU is one hardware thread of the host processor. Yours are pinned one to one to your VPS and never lent to another customer, and the two threads of a physical core stay together, so every 2 vCPU make one whole core that no neighbour shares.
- **Processor:** Every plan runs on AMD EPYC 9004/9005 server processors (Zen 4 / Zen 5), a family first launched in November 2022; a VPS is never moved to an older node without telling you first.
- **CPU use:** Full load is allowed for as long as your work needs it: no CPU credits, no burst window and no throttling after some minutes at 100%.
- **Memory:** The RAM of your plan is set aside for your VPS and is not overcommitted.
- **Storage:** NVMe storage on every plan.
- **Network:** Each VPS gets one IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64 on a 1 Gbit/s port. The monthly traffic of your plan counts outgoing data only, and going past it never adds a charge by itself.
- **Systems:** Debian 13, Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, AlmaLinux 10, Rocky Linux 10. Linux images only: Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux. Windows is not offered.
- **Access:** Root over SSH. Paste a public key at checkout and password login stays off; leave the field empty and the team sets a temporary root password, shown in your dashboard, that you replace at first login.

## Which plan fits my workload?

**Size a dedicated-vCPU VPS by the number of jobs that run at the same time, not by the peak of a single one.** A vCPU here is a thread you keep, so four parallel jobs need about four vCPU, and the RAM follows at 2 GB each.

- **Fell 2** fits one always-busy process: a CI runner that takes one job at a time, [a small PostgreSQL](https://cobaltfell.com/vps-for-postgresql/ "How much CPU and RAM PostgreSQL needs on a VPS") for an app in production, an API with steady traffic, or two headless browsers.
- **Fell 4** fits [a GitLab or Forgejo runner](https://cobaltfell.com/vps-for-ci-builds/ "GitLab Runner VPS: how many dedicated vCPU?") with a few parallel jobs, PostgreSQL with a handful of busy connections, or a pool of [headless Chrome scraping workers](https://cobaltfell.com/vps-for-web-scraping/ "VPS for headless Chrome scraping workers").
- **Fell 8** fits [video encoding with FFmpeg](https://cobaltfell.com/vps-for-video-transcoding/ "FFmpeg on a VPS without a GPU"), larger compiles such as Rust or C++ projects, and a database that also runs its own reports. It has the best price per vCPU.
- **Fell 16** fits build farms, batch encoding and [small language models on CPU](https://cobaltfell.com/vps-for-llm-without-gpu/ "Ollama and small LLMs on a VPS without a GPU"), where cores and memory bandwidth decide the pace.

These are starting points, not measurements: Our own YABS and Geekbench 6 results, together with the steal time we measure, will be published with their date once our first test machine is delivered. Until then we quote no performance figure of our own.

## What do 3, 6 and 12-month terms save?

**You prepay each VPS for 1, 3, 6 or 12 months, and a longer term lowers the monthly cost by 10%, 20% or 30%.** Rent a VPS for 1 month, 3 months (10% off), 6 months (20% off) or 12 months (30% off) at a time. A longer term costs the monthly price times its months, minus its discount, rounded down to the cent: Fell 8 is $54.63 for 1 month, $147.50 for 3, $262.22 for 6 and $458.89 for 12. A renewal repeats the term of your order at the same price, unless you choose a different term for the next one in your dashboard.

*A term is paid in one go from your balance. Its price is the monthly price times its months, less its discount, rounded down to the cent; the monthly figure is that total divided by 12, as the checkout shows it.*

| Plan | 1 month | 3 months (−10%) | 6 months (−20%) | 12 months (−30%) | Per month on 12 months |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Fell 2 | $14.98 | $40.44 | $71.90 | $125.83 | $10.49 |
| Fell 4 | $27.84 | $75.16 | $133.63 | $233.85 | $19.49 |
| Fell 8 | $54.63 | $147.50 | $262.22 | $458.89 | $38.24 |
| Fell 16 | $185.53 | $500.93 | $890.54 | $1558.45 | $129.87 |

Each VPS is paid from a prepaid crypto balance for the term chosen at checkout: 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. With auto-renew on, the same term is taken from the balance again at the price of your order, unless you set a different term for the next renewal in the dashboard; if the balance falls short, the VPS stops when its term ends, its disk is held for 7 days and then erased.

A term runs for its own days: 30, 91, 182 or 365. If a VPS cannot be built, or stops and support cannot restart it, the days lost go back to your balance; the [refund policy](https://cobaltfell.com/refunds/ "Refund Policy") shows how a day is valued on each term.

## How is the Cobaltfell price set?

**According to Cobaltfell's survey of 2 November 2026, 6 of the 51 VPS hosts that take crypto without ID sold a comparable dedicated-CPU plan; each Cobaltfell tier is priced against one of those plans, named in the table below, and sits at least 25% under it on the 12-month term.** The full rule: On the 12-month term, each plan is priced at least 25% under a named reference plan (prices read on 2 November 2026): Fell 2 against RDP.monster's “Swift” at $13.99 a month; Fell 4 against RDP.monster's “Velocity” at $25.99 a month; Fell 8 against HostSailor's “Commodore” at $50.99 a month; Fell 16 against Hiddence's “Ryzen-5” at €155.00 ($173.17) a month. A plan can serve as a reference only if it is comparable: its own host says the CPU is dedicated, the processor was launched in 2022 or later, it has at least as many vCPU with 2 GB of RAM and 20 GB of NVMe per vCPU, an IPv4 address is included, it is billed one month at a time and it is in stock. Of the 51 VPS hosts that accept crypto and ask for no ID at signup, 6 had such a plan (Servury, RDP.monster, HostSailor, Cherry Servers, VPSLab and Hiddence); for each tier, the reference is the comparable plan among them with the smallest monthly price. Only one plan met the rule at 16 vCPU, so Fell 16 rests on a single host. SporeStack, BitLaunch and NoctHost also take crypto without ID but are left out: SporeStack asks every new account for a first deposit of $1,000, BitLaunch shows its prices only after you log in and NoctHost publishes only “from” prices. Euro prices use 1 EUR = 1.1172 USD (ECB reference rate of 30 October 2026), and the month-to-month price is the 12-month monthly price divided by 0.7.

The table shows the reference plan of each tier. Each reference is a monthly price; ours on the same line is the 12-month price per month.

### Which plan is each price compared with?

*Reference = a named plan at a host of the survey that accepts crypto and asks for no ID at signup, whose own page says the CPU is dedicated, on a processor launched in 2022 or later, with at least the vCPU, 2 GB of RAM and 20 GB of NVMe per vCPU of the tier, an IPv4 address included, billed monthly and in stock; where several plans qualify, the one with the smallest monthly price. Each Cobaltfell plan has at least the RAM and the NVMe of its reference.*

| Plan | Cobaltfell, 12-month term, per month | Reference plan | Its specs and CPU | Its price a month | Lower by | Hosts with a comparable plan |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Fell 2 | $10.49 | RDP.monster Swift | 2 vCPU / 4 GB / 60 GB NVMe, AMD Ryzen 9 7950X | $13.99 | 25% | 6 |
| Fell 4 | $19.49 | RDP.monster Velocity | 4 vCPU / 8 GB / 100 GB NVMe, AMD Ryzen 9 7950X | $25.99 | 25% | 6 |
| Fell 8 | $38.24 | HostSailor Commodore | 16 vCPU / 16 GB / 200 GB NVMe, AMD EPYC 9534 (2 sockets per node) | $50.99 | 25% | 5 |
| Fell 16 | $129.87 | Hiddence Ryzen-5 | 16 vCPU / 32 GB / 480 GB NVMe, AMD Ryzen 9 9950X | €155.00 ($173.17) | 25% | 1 |

*Prices checked on November 2, 2026.*

Euro prices converted at 1 EUR = 1.1172 USD (ECB reference rate of 30 October 2026). "Dedicated" is each host's own word, quoted in the survey; nobody has published a measurement of it.

**What this rule does not say.** We do not claim to be the cheapest at every size, or on every term:

- **Month to month, each plan costs about 7% more than its reference** ($14.98 for Fell 2 against $13.99). The 25% gap holds on the 12-month term.
- **Per vCPU, HostSailor is lower**: HostSailor Commodore works out at $3.19 per vCPU, with 1 GB of RAM per vCPU where our plans have 2.
- **With older or unnamed processors, plans cost less**: AlexHost P2 was €12.00 ($13.41) on an Intel Xeon Platinum 8268 (launched in 2019).
- **Fell 16 rests on one host.** Only Hiddence sold a 16-vCPU plan that met every condition; its company and country are not named on its site.

Outside the pool, netcup sells 2 dedicated cores on an EPYC 9645 for $16.61 a month, VAT included, but takes no crypto and asks for an identity check, or a prepayment, after the first order; Hetzner's dedicated line is compared plan by plan in [what a good Hetzner CCX alternative that accepts crypto looks like](https://cobaltfell.com/hetzner-ccx-alternative/ "Hetzner CCX alternative paid in crypto"). Every host of the survey is in [what a dedicated CPU VPS costs per core in November 2026](https://cobaltfell.com/dedicated-cpu-vps-price-index/ "Dedicated CPU VPS price per core, survey of 2 November 2026").

## What costs nothing extra, and what is left out?

**No setup fee: you pay the price of the term you pick, on the first order and at each renewal.**

Not charged: setup, IPv4 and IPv6 addresses, reinstalls, a change of term at renewal, and traffic past your quota. Each VPS gets one IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64 on a 1 Gbit/s port. The monthly traffic of your plan counts outgoing data only, and going past it never adds a charge by itself.

Not included, so you can plan around it:

- **Backups:** Backups are not part of any plan: keep a copy of your data somewhere else.
- **DDoS protection:** No DDoS mitigation is sold or promised beyond the default filtering of the datacenter network.
- **Windows:** Linux images only: Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux and Rocky Linux. Windows is not offered.
- **Mail on port 25:** Outbound port 25 is blocked on every VPS and is not opened on request; ports 465 and 587 towards a mail provider stay open.
- **A free trial:** There is no free trial: the smallest plan, Fell 2, costs $14.98 for one month, or $10.49 a month on the 12-month term.
- **Lightning:** Bitcoin is taken on-chain only; the accepted coins are BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, XMR.

## How payment works

1. **Top up $1 or more** — Choose the amount and the coin (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, XMR). The crypto amount and its rate are locked for 30 minutes.
2. **Send it to the address shown, on the exact network** — The payment page shows our deposit address for the coin and network you picked: BTC on Bitcoin, USDT on Tron (TRC-20) or Ethereum (ERC-20), USDC on Ethereum (ERC-20), ETH on Ethereum, SOL on Solana, LTC on Litecoin, XMR on Monero. Send only that coin on that network: funds sent on another network or in another coin can’t be recovered. The network fee comes on top of the amount.
3. **Send the exact amount shown, then click “I’ve sent the payment”** — Each top-up has its own exact amount (down to the last decimals): that is how we find your payment and link it to your account.
4. **Credited once your payment is checked on the blockchain** — Your balance is credited once we have checked the transaction on the blockchain, after the network has confirmed it. Typical network confirmation times:
5. **Order your VPS** — Choose a plan, a term, a city, a Linux image and, if you like, an SSH key; the top-up matches the price of that term. Once the payment is confirmed, a person builds the VPS, most often in a few minutes and in 1 hour at most, and its IP address shows in your dashboard. Credit on your balance does not expire and renews any of your VPS. When a top-up is only made to reach the minimum, the unspent part comes back on request within 30 days of payment, in USDT or USDC. The rest of a balance is not paid out unless the law requires it.

| Crypto | Network | Confirmations | Usual time |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Bitcoin (BTC) | Bitcoin | 2 | ≈ 20 min |
| Tether (USDT) | Tron (TRC-20) | 20 | ≈ 1 min |
| Tether (USDT) | Ethereum (ERC-20) | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| USD Coin (USDC) | Ethereum (ERC-20) | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| Ethereum (ETH) | Ethereum | 12 | ≈ 5 min |
| Solana (SOL) | Solana | 1 | ≈ 1 min |
| Litecoin (LTC) | Litecoin | 6 | ≈ 15 min |
| Monero (XMR) | Monero | 10 | ≈ 20 min |

Closed the tab? The pending top-up stays under Billing in your account: open it to see the address and the exact amount again.

## Pricing questions

### Why is the 12-month price the one shown first?

Because the price rule is set on it: on the 12-month term each plan is priced at least 25% under its named reference plan. Month to month costs that price divided by 0.7, so the 1-month price of Fell 2 is $14.98.

### Can I change the term later?

Yes, at renewal. A term runs to its end at the price you paid, and the dashboard lets you choose 1, 3, 6 or 12 months for the next one.

### Do prices differ between Amsterdam, Zurich and Bucharest?

No. Amsterdam (Netherlands), Zurich (Switzerland) and Bucharest (Romania): all four plans in all three cities, at one price.

### Is there a discount for several VPS?

No. Each VPS is priced on its own by plan and term; the only discount is the one a 3-, 6- or 12-month term gives.

### What happens if my balance cannot cover a renewal?

Each VPS is paid from a prepaid crypto balance for the term chosen at checkout: 1, 3, 6 or 12 months. With auto-renew on, the same term is taken from the balance again at the price of your order, unless you set a different term for the next renewal in the dashboard; if the balance falls short, the VPS stops when its term ends, its disk is held for 7 days and then erased.

### Will my price go up at renewal?

A renewal repeats your term at the price of your order. A change in our price list applies to new orders, not to a term you already paid.
