Has anybody found a cloud service provider that rents GPUs and accepts bitcoin?

I like the idea of installing it myself but I don't have the local power to use the more advanced models. So GPU rental seems the way to go.

Obviously I prefer to use Bitcoin for many reasons but one is for privacy. I could probably try using a prepaid credit card but I also know many providers refuse those. Or they may be usable only in some countries.

Lunanode is well known for accepting bitcoin but they don't offer GPU rentals.

The closest I've come is bitlaunch.io for a vultr.com instance (they do GPUs) but we can't freeze/shelve the instance between uses. Neither can we take a snapshot between uses to faciliate the next instance creation. I guess there's the option of leaving the instance on, but that would be in the thousands per month...

Looking to try out a VPS service paid with bitcoin.

First search took me to vpsservice.com. It literally required personal identification with drivers license or similar.

Batshit crazy.

Took to searching on nostr instead and will now be looking into lunanode based on your mention.

Thanks.
