## What comes with every Ravenquay berth?

| Attribute | Value |
| --- | --- |
| Machine | Offshore dedicated servers with unmetered bandwidth: one physical machine per customer, rented whole, with root access and a port that carries traffic without a monthly quota |
| Bandwidth | Unmetered means no monthly traffic quota and no overage bill: the port speed of your plan, 1 or 10 Gbit/s, is the only limit. Each server has one dedicated IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64 |
| Hardware | Nothing on the machine is shared: its processor, memory and disks serve only your workloads |
| Disks | Servers with two disks get a software RAID 1 mirror for the system by default; tell support before delivery if you want RAID 0 or independent disks |
| Ports of call | Reykjavik (Iceland), Zurich (Switzerland), Bucharest (Romania) and Amsterdam (Netherlands): every berth in every port of call, at one price |
| Systems | Debian 13, Debian 12, Ubuntu 24.04 LTS, AlmaLinux 10, Rocky Linux 10 and Proxmox VE 9 |
| Root access | Root over SSH, your way: give a public key at checkout and password login is switched off, or leave the field blank and a temporary root password arrives with the server, to change the first time you log in |
| Setup fee | There is no setup fee: you pay the price of your chosen term, both when you order and when you renew |
| Setup time | minutes after your payment clears, never more than one hour |
| Trial | No free trial is offered; Harbor 8, the smallest berth, costs $72.62 for 30 days |
| KYC | No KYC: no ID, no selfie, no documents, no card and no phone number, ever |
| Payment | Crypto only: BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, XMR; minimum top-up $1 |

## What does each berth cost?

Three berths, each paid from your crypto balance for 30 days, 3 months, 6 months or 12 months. The cards show all three terms. Prices: Harbor 8 $72.62, Harbor 16 $205.27, Harbor 10G $356.25. **A berth costs the same in Reykjavik, Zurich, Bucharest and Amsterdam.** At checkout you choose a term, a port of call, a system and an SSH key, or no key for a temporary root password.

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

## What hardware is in each berth?

One berth is one physical machine. The number in its name is the core count, except Harbor 10G, which is named for its port.

| Berth | CPU | Cores / threads | RAM | Disks | Port and traffic | Per 30 days |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Harbor 8 | Intel Xeon E-2388G | 8 cores / 16 threads | 64 GB DDR4 ECC | 2 × 960 GB NVMe | Unmetered at 1 Gbit/s | $72.62 |
| Harbor 16 | AMD Ryzen 9 7950X | 16 cores / 32 threads | 128 GB DDR5 | 2 × 1.92 TB NVMe | Unmetered at 1 Gbit/s | $205.27 |
| Harbor 10G | AMD EPYC 9254 | 24 cores / 48 threads | 128 GB DDR5 ECC | 2 × 1.92 TB NVMe | Unmetered at 10 Gbit/s | $356.25 |

**Harbor 8 suits most single workloads; Harbor 10G is for traffic that would saturate a gigabit port.** A Tor exit, a busy VPN gateway or a public mirror can fill 1 Gbit/s. A 1 Gbit/s port moves at most about 324 TB in 30 days, and 10 Gbit/s ten times that. The choice is worked through in [Do I need a 1 Gbps or 10 Gbps port on my server?](https://ravenquay.com/1gbps-vs-10gbps-server/ "Choosing between a 1 Gbit/s and a 10 Gbit/s port")

## How much do 6 and 12 months cost?

**Three months take 10% off, six months 20% and twelve months 30%, with no setup fee on any term.** Take a berth for 30 days, 3 months (91 days, 10% off), 6 months (182 days, 20% off) or 12 months (365 days, 30% off): longer terms cost the 30-day price times 3, 6 or 12, less the discount, rounded down to the cent (Harbor 8: $196.07 for 3 months, $348.57 for 6, $610.00 for 12). A renewal keeps your term and your original price unless you pick another term for the next renewal in the dashboard.

| Berth | 30 days | 3 months (91 days) | 6 months (182 days) | 12 months (365 days) |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Harbor 8 | $72.62 | $196.07 | $348.57 | $610.00 |
| Harbor 16 | $205.27 | $554.22 | $985.29 | $1724.26 |
| Harbor 10G | $356.25 | $961.87 | $1710.00 | $2992.50 |

## How are Ravenquay prices set?

**Each berth sits at least 25% under a named unmetered server from one of 10 hosts that take crypto and ask for no ID.** The rule in full: Each berth's 30-day price sits at least 25% under a named reference server (prices read on 30 October 2026): Harbor 8 against Zomro's “Config PL 52 (Intel Xeon E-2288G, 64GB DDR4, 2x960GB NVMe, Poland, Warsaw)” at $96.84 a month; Harbor 16 against AbeloHost's “AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (PL)” at $273.70 a month; Harbor 10G against KoDDoS's “EPYC-9274F-768GB-3.84TB-NVMe-10Gbps” at $475.00 a month. A berth's reference is the dedicated server with unmetered traffic and the smallest monthly price that offers a port at least as fast, at least the same physical cores, memory and SSD or NVMe storage, a CPU from 2018 or later, one IPv4 address, monthly billing and stock shown, among 10 hosts that accept crypto without asking for ID at signup. Setup fees are spread over twelve months; annual-only plans, older CPUs and ID-requiring hosts do not count, nor does AliasVPS, whose listed prices are three to five times lower than any other host and whose delivery could not be verified; euro prices are converted at 1 EUR = 1.1172 USD (ECB, 30 October 2026). We do not claim to be the cheapest at every size: servers sold with a monthly traffic quota, and machines with older CPUs, often cost less.

Metered offers do not count, however cheap. A server with a 10 or 30 TB quota is a different product: once the quota is spent, the port is throttled or billed. The pool and the 10G figures are laid out in [How much does 10 Gbps dedicated server hosting cost per month?](https://ravenquay.com/10gbps-dedicated-server-price/ "10 Gbit/s dedicated server prices, October 2026")

### Which offer is each berth priced against?

*Prices read on each host's order pages on 30 October 2026, with any setup fee spread over twelve months. 1 EUR = 1.1172 USD (ECB, 30 October 2026).*

| Berth | Ravenquay price | Named reference server | Its plan and hardware | Median | Hosts compared | Ravenquay is lower by |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| Harbor 8 | $72.62 | €83.18/month + €41.99 setup ($96.84 a month over a year) at Zomro | Config PL 52 (Intel Xeon E-2288G, 64GB DDR4, 2x960GB NVMe, Poland, Warsaw): Intel Xeon E-2288G, 8 cores / 64 GB / 2x960GB NVMe, unmetered 1 Gbit/s | $294.97 | 8 | 25% (median: 75%) |
| Harbor 16 | $205.27 | €244.99 ($273.70) at AbeloHost | AMD Ryzen 9 7950X (PL): AMD Ryzen 9 7950X, 16 cores / 192 GB / 2 x 2 TB NVMe, unmetered 1 Gbit/s | $470.70 | 6 | 25% (median: 56%) |

Zomro, the reference for Harbor 8, takes crypto only through Cryptomus (now Heleket). The United Kingdom added that processor to its sanctions list on 8 October 2026.

## What does unmetered mean at Ravenquay?

**The rule is one sentence, and it applies to every berth:** Unmetered means no monthly traffic quota and no overage bill: the port speed of your plan, 1 or 10 Gbit/s, is the only limit. Each server has one dedicated IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64.

So nothing is counted toward a cap, and no month ends with a traffic invoice. Many hosts price bandwidth another way, by the 95th percentile of five-minute samples. That model is explained in [What is 95th percentile bandwidth billing?](https://ravenquay.com/95th-percentile-billing/ "95th percentile bandwidth billing, explained") The rule doesn't open the door to banned uses: Forbidden: spam or bulk email, phishing, malware or botnet command, DDoS or other attacks, scanning or brute-forcing other people’s systems, booter or stresser services, carding or fraud, child sexual abuse material, cryptocurrency mining, and any service to sanctioned people or companies.

## How does billing work?

**You top up a crypto balance, then each server is paid from it for the term you chose.** You prepay each server from a crypto balance for a term of 30 days, 3 months, 6 months or 12 months, chosen at checkout. With auto-renew, the same term is charged again at your original price, unless you choose a different term for the next renewal in the dashboard; if the balance cannot cover it, the server halts when the term ends, its disks are retained for 7 days and then wiped.

There is no setup fee: you pay the price of your chosen term, both when you order and when you renew. The minimum top-up is $1. Credit on your balance does not expire and renews any of your servers. 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. We screen incoming payments against public sanctions lists of blockchain addresses on every coin whose chain shows the sender, which leaves out Monero; payments from listed addresses are not credited.

If we cannot deliver a server, or it breaks and support cannot bring it back, the days it was out of service return to your balance. Balances do not expire. Top-ups are not cashed out unless the law requires it; the part paid only to reach the minimum top-up can come back on request within 30 days of payment, in USDT or USDC, provided it has not been spent. The cases are listed on the [refund policy](https://ravenquay.com/refunds/ "When days return to your Ravenquay balance").

## How long until my server is ready?

**Your server is ready minutes after your payment clears, never more than one hour.** Once the network has confirmed your coins, expect your server within minutes; one hour is the ceiling. The dashboard tracks its status until the IP address appears.

Most hosts promise a longer wait: the median they state is 24 hours, within a range of 30 minutes to 10 business days. Afterwards, Ask for a reboot, a reinstall or a cancellation in the dashboard and the team does it; a reinstall erases every disk.

## What happens after I reserve a berth?

1. **Top up in crypto** — Choose your server at checkout, then pay in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC, XMR: the top-up is set to the price of your order. Minimum top-up $1.
2. **Payment credited** — Your balance is credited once the payment is checked on the blockchain, after the network has confirmed it. Typical network confirmation time: BTC ≈ 20 min · USDT TRC-20 ≈ 1 min · USDT ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · USDC ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · ETH ≈ 5 min · SOL ≈ 1 min · LTC ≈ 15 min · XMR ≈ 20 min.
3. **Your server is made ready** (within 1 h) — Your server is set up in the port of call and with the system you picked, a few minutes after the confirmed payment and never more than one hour later. Locations: Reykjavik, Zurich, Bucharest, Amsterdam.
4. **IP address and root access in your dashboard** — The IP address appears in your dashboard. Root logs in with your SSH key, or with a temporary root password shown there if you gave no key. `ssh root@<server IP>`

## What is not included in the price?

The price covers the machine, its unmetered port and human support. These are not part of any berth:

- **Remote console:** Customers get no IPMI or KVM-over-IP console; the team carries out the reboots and reinstalls you ask for in the dashboard.
- **Backups:** No backup service is included, so store copies of your data elsewhere.
- **DDoS filtering:** We promise no DDoS mitigation beyond what the datacenter network does on its own.
- **Windows:** Choose Debian, Ubuntu, AlmaLinux or Rocky Linux, or Proxmox VE to host your own virtual machines. Windows is not available.
- **Outgoing mail on port 25:** Port 25 is closed for outgoing mail on every server, permanently, to keep spam off the network; ports 465 and 587 toward mail providers stay open.
- **Lightning:** not accepted, though Monero is. In Ravenquay's survey of 34 dedicated-server hosts on 30 October 2026, 3 took Lightning and 15 took Monero.

## How do I pay for a berth in crypto?

You open an account with a number, top up in crypto, then reserve a berth from the balance. No step asks for a name, a document or a card.

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. **Reserve your berth** — Pick a berth, a term, a port of call, a system and your SSH key (or none, for a temporary root password); the top-up follows the price of that term. Once the payment is confirmed, the server comes up within minutes, never later than one hour, and its IP address appears in the dashboard. Credit on your balance does not expire and renews any of your servers. 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 |

## What else do buyers ask about Ravenquay prices?

### Do I pay more if I use more bandwidth?

No. The price per term is fixed. Unmetered means no monthly traffic quota and no overage bill: the port speed of your plan, 1 or 10 Gbit/s, is the only limit. Each server has one dedicated IPv4 address and an IPv6 /64.

### Is there a free trial?

No free trial is offered; Harbor 8, the smallest berth, costs $72.62 for 30 days. If a server cannot be delivered, or fails and support cannot repair it, the lost days go back to your balance.

### Can I pay month by month?

Yes. Every berth can be taken for 30 days at a time. Harbor 10G costs $356.25 for 30 days, $1710.00 for 6 months or $2992.50 for 12.

### Does the country change the price?

No. Harbor 8 costs $72.62 in Reykjavik, Zurich, Bucharest and Amsterdam alike. Choose the country for its law and its distance to your users.

### What if my balance runs out?

The server stops at the end of its term. Its disks are kept for 7 days, then wiped, so a top-up within that week brings it back.

### How does Ravenquay price its berths against other unmetered hosts?

Each berth is set from a dated survey of 10 hosts, at least 25% under a named comparable offer. We do not claim to be the cheapest at every size: plans with a traffic quota often cost less. The trade-offs are written down: no console, no backups and no Lightning.
