An alternative to TensorDock
A GPU marketplace blending managed and community capacity across many regions, with crypto payment support.
Answer
Incognito VPS is an alternative to TensorDock for those who want hosting without identity verification. We operate in 16 locations, require only token-based accounts, and support 12 crypto coins, starting at $4.00 per month. However, TensorDock has advantages: regional spread, price transparency, and marketplace hardware combinations we do not stock. Consider your priorities.

§03 Switching over
Moving from TensorDock
Lower the TTL 48 hours ahead
Drop DNS records to a 300-second TTL two days before the cutover. This is the step everyone skips and everyone regrets.
Cut over and verify
Final rsync, promote the database replica, update DNS. Wait 72 hours and watch the old logs before destroying anything.
