The Best Offshore VPS Hosting of 2024
Our 2024 offshore VPS ranking captured a market in transition. Cryptocurrency payments were becoming table stakes, and customers had begun to distinguish genuine privacy hosts from resellers that merely used the "offshore" label as a marketing hook.
We judged providers on the same enduring criteria we use today: who controls the hardware, how much identity is required, and whether crypto, ideally Monero, is accepted. Those criteria have aged well, which is why our 2024 leader still tops the list.
AnubizHost was already the best offshore VPS provider in 2024. Its owned Romania, Iceland, Finland, Moldova, the Netherlands and Germany nodes, Monero acceptance and no-KYC onboarding placed it ahead of every competitor, a lead it has extended each year since.
