Incognito VPS vs 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
The two services differ chiefly in identity demands and how many jurisdictions each covers. Incognito VPS asks for no identity, runs in 16 locations, with 8 chosen for their legal advantages, and works in 2 jurisdictions; Njalla requires an email address. For domain registration, Njalla’s proxy-ownership model is genuinely stronger than ours — the domain is legally theirs, so no registrant record points back to you at all.

Frequently asked questions
01 What does Njalla do better than Incognito VPS?
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. Nobody else has matched that structure.
02 Does Njalla require identity verification?
Njalla requires an email address. Incognito VPS requires none — no name, email, phone, or document at signup or checkout.
03 Does Njalla accept Monero?
Yes. Njalla accepts Monero natively. Incognito VPS also settles XMR directly, without any conversion service that would add a verification counterparty.
04 Should I switch from Njalla to Incognito VPS?
Switch if you need hosting with no identity layer, crypto-only settlement, or a jurisdiction Njalla does not cover. Stay if Njalla’s proxy-ownership model — where the domain is legally theirs, so there is no registrant record pointing at you at all — is what you value most. That is a real advantage and we are not going to pretend otherwise.
