OVHCloud

French cloud giant since 1999 and one of the biggest hosts in the world. The new VPS range starts at 2 cores, 4 GB and 40 GB NVMe for about $5.35 a month, with unlimited traffic, DDoS protection and a daily backup included, while the big prices on their site assume a year paid upfront. Datacenters from France and Poland to Canada, India, Singapore and Australia. The part that matters for us: their terms ban mining but explicitly allow Proof of Stake validation, which almost nobody else puts in writing. Everything is strict and legit and documents can be requested at signup, so this is a place for real projects, not for shady stuff. They lived through a datacenter fire in Strasbourg in 2021, so keep your backups somewhere else anyway.
