RE: Zero to Witness: Part 1: We need a big computer!

Wow! That could certainly have repercussions. Will monitor this closely, thanks for the heads-up.

As soon as I read your comment, I was expecting this to be related to cloud VMs only, not dedicated boxes. In fact they mention only colocation as an exemption :/

This could leave quite a dent in the crypto hosting space.

Whichever provider I'm using, I always stay away from any provider-specific extensions (backup systems, etc) so that it's as easy as possible to migrate to a different host.

Everything I'm doing here in Zero to Witness should work exactly the same on an Ubuntu 20.04 host with another provider.

Might be time to look at a few more hosts...

Yes, I was not happy about this information either. A provider where it is allowed would be contabo.com, for example - as far as I know.

Here at least is written:

Cryptocurrencies utilizing proof of stake approach are welcome at Contabo.

A bit more expensive, as far as this configuration is sufficient.

I had a Contabo-VPS for about a year and also had contact with the support, not the fastest, but competent and always solved my requests.

Let's discuss over here :)

I hadn't heard of Contabo, thanks - will check them out

Contabo.com provide us cheap vps
