Monero GPU hosting, on our own hardware, since February 2022.
GPU Rent Hub rents dedicated bare-metal GPU servers by the week or the month and accepts Monero for every card and every term, from an RTX A5000 at $190 a month to an 8-way B200 node at $28,010, with no identity verification and no email address on the account.
What is Monero GPU hosting?
A GPU you can rent without anyone learning who rented it, on hardware owned by the company billing you.
Monero is the only coin on our list where sender, recipient and amount are hidden by the protocol rather than by how carefully you use it. That is worth nothing if the host wants a passport first, so we built the account around it: a username and a password hash, and nothing else.
We added XMR in February 2022, after a year as the most requested item in our tickets. We run our own monerod node in DFW-1 with a hot spare in IAD-1, because a payment processor would know things about you that we have chosen not to know. Each deposit gets a fresh subaddress.
The rest is ordinary hosting. A physical card in one of three US datacenters, root over SSH, the whole machine. The full GPU catalogue covers the parts that have nothing to do with coins.
Monero GPU hosting is the rental of a dedicated GPU server paid for in XMR, the cryptocurrency whose ring signatures and stealth addresses conceal sender, receiver and amount on chain. At GPU Rent Hub it means a bare-metal GPU in a US datacenter, rented by the week or the month at a fixed USD price, funded by an XMR deposit to a one-time subaddress, on an account that is a username and a password and nothing else.

How do you pay for a GPU server with Monero?
Four steps. Only the chain takes real time, about twenty minutes of it.
Register
Pick a username and a password. Nothing else is asked. A recovery email is optional, and most XMR customers skip it.
Choose XMR, get a subaddress
The deposit screen issues a fresh Monero subaddress from our own node, used once and never reissued. Send any amount above $20 equivalent.
Ten confirmations
Your USD credit is fixed at the median spot rate of three exchanges at the first confirmation, not the tenth, so the wait cannot move your number. Spendable at ten.
Deploy
Card, region, term, template. Provisioning takes two to six minutes on stocked configurations, and the price leaves your balance in one line.
What does a Monero deposit actually look like?
Real arithmetic with a real catalogue price. Substitute your own rate on the day.
Say you send 4.5 XMR on a day when the median of our three reference exchanges is $278.40. Your balance becomes $1,252.80 at the first confirmation and is spendable twenty minutes later. Deploy one RTX 4090 24 GB in PDX-1 at $390 a month and $862.80 stays in the account: two more renewals with $82.80 over.
Unused balance is not stranded. Ask for a withdrawal, give a Monero address, and we send it back minus the network fee and nothing else, within 24 hours. No fee, no minimum, no questions about what the money is for.

Why is the balance in dollars and not in XMR?
Because a GPU costs the same to run whether or not Monero moved this week. Our power contracts, cage leases and hardware are priced in dollars, so the rental is too.
Hold the deposit as XMR and either you carry the exchange risk, with a term that cost 1.4 XMR in March costing 2.1 XMR in June for the same card, or we carry it and price it quietly into the rent. Fixing the value at first confirmation ends the question.
The balance then behaves like credit, not a position. Renewals are drawn from it 24 hours before term end. Nothing renews on an empty balance: the instance stops and you get 72 hours to top up before the slot is released. Full rules in the deposits documentation.
How much does it cost to rent a GPU with Monero?
Exactly what it costs in any other coin. Weekly is seven days up front; monthly renews from balance.

How does XMR compare with the other coins you accept?
One rule for all seven: rate fixed at first confirmation, spendable at the confirmation count below. Monero is the slow one and the only private one.

| XMRMonero | Monero mainnet | 10 | ~20 min |
| BTCBitcoin | Bitcoin mainnet (bech32) | 1 | 10–30 min |

| USDTTether | TRC-20 or ERC-20 | 19 / 12 | ~1 / ~3 min |
| USDCUSD Coin | ERC-20 | 12 | ~3 min |

Which hosts take XMR for GPUs?
It gets asked on LowEndTalk and its equivalents every few months, usually with disappointing answers. Here is ours, stated plainly.
Most GPU clouds take cards and invoices, and a few take Bitcoin through a processor that runs identity checks on you. Monero is rarer, because no processor will touch it and taking it yourself means running a node. GPU Rent Hub accepts XMR directly for every card, every region and every term, and has since February 2022. No approval step, no crypto tier with worse hardware.
Comparing hosts, ask four things: direct or through a processor, email or document required, rate fixed at first confirmation or at credit, and whether unused balance can leave again. Ours: direct, neither, first confirmation, yes within 24 hours.
Private end to end
The chain hides the payment and the account holds nothing to identify you: a username, a password hash, a balance, instance metadata. No email to correlate, no card BIN, no name on an invoice. More on no-KYC GPU hosting.
Tor onion service
The dashboard and API run as an onion service, the address PGP-signed under Settings and on the contact page. Deposits and deployments work identically over Tor, which we do not flag, rate-limit or log differently.
No processor in the loop
Our own node, our own subaddress generation, our own reconciliation. No third party can pause your deposit, ask you for a selfie, or decide later that your account needs review.
What does paying in Monero not change?
Better written down than discovered after a deposit. Privacy in payment is not immunity from everything else.
The acceptable-use rules still apply
We do not inspect workloads, scan disks or read traffic. We act on what leaves the machine: outbound attack traffic, spam, scanning, and the short list in the terms. The coin is not a factor either way.
We are a US company
GPU Rent Hub Compute LLC is registered in Wyoming and operates from Dallas. DFW-1, IAD-1 and PDX-1 are in the United States, and we answer valid US legal process. What we can produce is limited to what we hold: a username, a balance, instance timestamps. The transparency report runs each January.
Payments are final
No chargebacks in either direction. Send to the address shown, on Monero mainnet, from a wallet you control. We cannot reverse a transaction, recover coins sent to a stale subaddress, or restore an account that lost its password.
