An alternative to Njalla
A privacy-by-proxy registrar and host founded by Peter Sunde, which buys domains and servers in its own name and lends you the use of them.
Answer
Incognito VPS is an alternative to Njalla for users who need hosting without identity verification. Incognito VPS operates in 16 locations with token-only accounts and twelve-coin crypto settlement, from $4.00 per month. Njalla remains the better choice where Njalla’s proxy-ownership model is genuinely stronger than ours for domain registration — the domain is legally theirs, so there is no registrant record pointing at you at all.
