## Why Bulgaria

Sofia is our lowest-cost location. Bulgaria annulled blanket retention in 2015 and now requires per-request judicial authorisation. Good Frankfurt path at 34 ms, EU jurisdiction, and the best price per gigabyte of NVMe on the network.

**Trade-off:** Cheapest euro-adjacent capacity we operate and a real anti-retention precedent, but it is still an EU member state with full mutual-recognition obligations. Transit is thinner than Amsterdam.

## Legal basis

| Claim | Instrument | Year |
| --- | --- | --- |
| Blanket retention provisions annulled as unconstitutional | Constitutional Court Decision No. 2 of 12 Mar 2015, case 8/2014 | 2015 |
| Retention now requires prior judicial authorisation per request | Electronic Communications Act, Art. 251b as amended post-2015 | 2015 |
| Hosting liability exemption under the DSA regime | EU Digital Services Act (Reg. 2022/2065), Art. 6 | 2024 |
| Not a member of any Eyes intelligence-sharing tier | No documented SIGINT Seniors participation | 2024 |

## Frequently asked questions

### How much is a vps in Bulgaria?

Prices start at $4.00 monthly at SOF-1 in Mladost, Sofia. Top configuration runs $98.00. Every plan includes DDoS scrubbing, a routed IPv6 /64, and full root access.

### Why choose Bulgaria for this?

Sofia is our cheapest location. Bulgaria dropped blanket data retention in 2015, so authorities now need per-request judicial approval. It suits budget VPS fleets, CI runners, build farms, staging environments, and bulk storage in the EU.

### What is the catch with Bulgaria?

The trade-offs: Bulgaria is still an EU member, so mutual recognition obligations apply, and transit is thinner than Amsterdam. You do gain the lowest cost and a genuine anti-retention precedent.

### Do you require identity verification in Bulgaria?

No. Across all 16 locations, we use the same token-only model: no name, email, phone, or ID at any point, and settlement exclusively in cryptocurrency.
