What this means for you
When you create a server, you now pick the provider. Choose **DigitalOcean** and you get a genuine DO droplet — real DigitalOcean infrastructure — provisioned through their API, but paid for the NoctHost way: **crypto, no card, no KYC, hourly billing**.
- **More locations.** DigitalOcean adds regions across Asia, Europe and the US — including spots Vultr doesn't cover — so you can put servers closer to where you need them.
- **A second independent network.** Running on two providers means one cloud's outage doesn't take everything you host down with it.
- **One balance, one API, one dashboard.** No new account, no new payment method. Your crypto balance covers servers on either provider, and the same REST API deploys to both.
Why we added it
A single upstream provider is a single point of dependency — for capacity, for regions, and for the small risk that any one provider's decision affects your fleet. Running on more than one cloud makes NoctHost more resilient and gives you real choice at deploy time, without asking you to manage separate accounts or juggle payment methods.
How to use it
Just pick **DigitalOcean** when you deploy your next server. Everything else — hourly billing, dedicated IPv4, full root, the crypto top-up flow — works exactly as it does on Vultr.
Same balance, same API, no KYC. More clouds are on the way.
