Why Amsterdam for Lightning node
Latency is what Amsterdam (NL-AMS) gets bought for: < 1 ms to AMS. The rack sits in a Tier III+ / 2N facility behind a 40 Gbps port · AMS-IX / DE-CIX. Paperwork sits in Nevis; Netherlands law governs the rack. Takedown requests are acted on only when they arrive from that facility's own police and courts.
VPS from $4.80* — Core on the annual term (list $6/mo), one invoice for 12 months, no auto-charges. Dedicated with IPMI from $39.20/mo. Crypto invoice, no KYC.
Launch nowWhat actually runs: Lightning node
Run LND or Core Lightning on a VPS whose IP stays put, keep the bitcoind backend on NVMe, and settle the hosting invoice on-chain in BTC or USDT. Prime tier starts a routing node; dedicated metal protects channel state from noisy neighbours. LND and Core Lightning want a stable IP and port 9735 reachable - both are defaults here.
