Skhron

What is Skhron

Skhron (also stylized "shkron") is a privacy-focused KVM VPS hosting provider founded in Ukraine in 2023 and legally registered in Estonia as Skhron OÜ (registry code 16921920). As of 2026-05-30, it operates its own hardware and network (AS215467) across two European data center locations: Warsaw, Poland and Stockholm, Sweden. The company emphasizes sovereign infrastructure, offering full KVM virtualization, custom ISO support, and routed IPv6 prefixes (/64 standard, /56 on request) on all plans. Its stated uptime guarantee is 99.95% for network and 99.99% for power, backed by a published SLA that credits service time for downtime.

How no-KYC is it?

Skhron is explicitly no-KYC. The provider states repeatedly across its site that it does not request government ID, driver's license, or selfies. Orders can be placed without identity verification. This is a genuine no-KYC service rather than a "soft KYC" or tiered verification model. The provider does collect contact information (name, email, phone, country/city) and billing details per its GDPR-compliant privacy policy, but this is standard account data rather than identity verification. Notably, the privacy policy acknowledges collection of IP addresses, browser information, and cookie-based site analytics, which users should factor into their operational security planning.

Privacy & security

Skhron layers multiple privacy features beyond the no-KYC policy. The site and customer portals are accessible via Tor (.onion mirrors), including the main frontend, VPS management panel, and BTCPayServer instance. The provider operates its own non-custodial, self-hosted cryptocurrency payment processor, eliminating third-party payment tracking or seizure risk. All VPS plans include full KVM isolation, custom ISO mounting (URL-based), and free BGP sessions. However, DDoS protection is not available, and IPv4 addresses are not included by default (€0.65/month add-on), making most plans IPv6-only without extra purchase. The provider maintains a "zero abuse tolerance" stance with active network monitoring and a strict acceptable use policy.

Payments, fees & limits

Skhron accepts Bitcoin (BTC), Bitcoin Lightning (LN), Monero (XMR), Tron, and Bitcoin Cash through its self-hosted processor. Traditional fiat payments via Visa, Mastercard, and SEPA are also available. Entry-level plans start from €1.69/month (XSIG-SE-0: 1 shared vCPU, 512 MiB RAM, 6 GiB SSD, 1 TiB traffic, Stockholm). AMD EPYC 7002 Series plans in Stockholm offer 5 Gbps uplinks starting at comparable price points. IPv4 costs €0.65/month extra. Pricing was adjusted upward approximately 10% across XSIG plans in May 2024, though promotional and archive tariffs were exempted. The provider offers recurring discounts, including up to 50% on EPYC launches and 20% for Stockholm opening promotions.

User experience & support

VPS deployment is advertised at 2-120 seconds post-payment confirmation for in-stock servers. The control panel supports custom ISO mounting and standard OS templates (Debian, Ubuntu LTS, Fedora, Alpine, FreeBSD). Support response time is guaranteed within 12 hours first response and 1-hour update frequency per the SLA, with tickets directed to support@skhron.com.ua. Third-party signals are generally positive: Trustpilot shows a small but favorable review set, and LowEndTalk community reviews cite responsive support and stable infrastructure, though some note regular pricing runs "a bit on the pricier side." The provider has maintained continuous operation since 2023 without major reported incidents or shutdowns.

Who it's for

Skhron suits privacy-conscious developers, VPN operators, and crypto-native users seeking no-KYC European infrastructure with verifiable network ownership. The IPv6-first design and IPv4 add-on model fit users comfortable with modern networking or running personal VPNs, while Tor accessibility appeals to high-threat-model users. Those needing built-in DDoS protection, bundled IPv4, or budget hyperscaler pricing may find better fits elsewhere.
