Dedicated in Romania

Single-tenant bare metal from a 4-core Xeon to dual EPYC 9654 with 768 GB of ECC. IPMI, custom ISO boot and LUKS2 at provision, in eight jurisdictions.

Answer

Dedicated servers in Romania start at $49.00 per month at our OTP-1 · Pipera facility. It is the only EU jurisdiction where the constitutional court twice struck down mandatory data retention — in 2009 and 2014 — and refused the replacement bill. No identity is required, payment settles on-chain, and delivery takes 15 to 90 minutes.

Why Romania

Romania is the only EU jurisdiction where the constitutional court struck down mandatory data retention twice, in 2009 and again in 2014, and refused the replacement bill. It combines that precedent with EU-grade connectivity and the lowest cost per core in our EU footprint.

  • Data-retention law struck down as unconstitutional — twice 2014
  • Follow-up retention bill also declared unconstitutional 2014
  • Hosting liability exemption under the DSA regime 2024

The trade-off

EU membership means EU instruments — European Investigation Orders reach Bucharest. What Romania gives you is a constitutional court that has twice refused to let the state retain communications data, plus very good price-per-core.

§03 FAQ

Frequently asked questions

01 How much is a dedicated in Romania?

Pricing starts at $49.00 per month at our OTP-1 · Pipera facility, with the largest configuration at $1,261.50. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.

02 Why choose Romania for this?

Romania is the only EU jurisdiction where the constitutional court struck down mandatory data retention twice, in 2009 and 2014, and refused the replacement bill. That precedent pairs with EU-grade connectivity and the lowest cost per core in our EU footprint. It suits price-sensitive European workloads, node hosting, Windows RDP, and GPU inference at EU latency.

03 What is the catch with Romania?

Being an EU member means EU instruments apply — European Investigation Orders reach Bucharest. What you get instead is a constitutional court that has twice blocked state retention of communications data, plus a strong price-per-core.

04 Do you require identity verification in Romania?

No. The token-only model is identical across all 16 locations: no name, email, phone, or ID is ever required, and only crypto payments are accepted.
