TL;DR Should you switch from BitLaunch?
BitLaunch is a crypto-only checkout layer on top of DigitalOcean and Vultr: you pick a DO droplet, they bill you in BTC / LTC / ETH / USDT / Lightning and profit on the spread. Great for crypto privacy buyers who need DO/Vultr specifically. rdp.monster runs direct hardware (we own the box, no reselling) with the same pay-in-crypto option, plus Windows out of the box and XMR (Monero) support. No spread, no middleman, and a cheaper entry plan.
- Want crypto checkout for VPS (same as BitLaunch but cheaper)
- Need a Windows desktop, not just a resold DO/Vultr Linux droplet
- Pay in XMR (Monero): BitLaunch doesn't accept it, rdp.monster does
- Don't want a middleman markup on DO/Vultr pricing
- You specifically need DigitalOcean's exact API / Spaces / Marketplace 1-click apps
- Your workload depends on Vultr's NVMe / Bare Metal tiers
- You want Lightning Network checkout specifically (we don't support Lightning)

Which one fits your workload?
Four scenarios, an honest verdict on each. BitLaunch doesn't lose every round.
Crypto-only checkout for VPS
= Tie / dependsBoth offer crypto checkout with no KYC. BitLaunch supports Lightning Network (faster small BTC payments); rdp.monster supports XMR (better privacy) and USDT (stablecoin convenience). A tie on crypto.
Direct hardware vs DO/Vultr resell
★ rdp.monster winsBitLaunch is a billing wrapper around DigitalOcean droplets and Vultr instances: you pay for DO/Vultr + BitLaunch margin. rdp.monster runs direct hardware in EU + US datacenters with our own provisioning stack. No middleman markup.
Windows desktop out of the box
★ rdp.monster winsrdp.monster gives you a preconfigured Windows desktop. BitLaunch resells DO/Vultr, which are mainly Linux. Windows is possible (Vultr supports it), but you pay Vultr + BitLaunch's margin and set it up yourself.
DigitalOcean ecosystem (API, Spaces, Marketplace)
★ BitLaunch winsIf you specifically need DigitalOcean's API, Spaces (S3-compatible), Marketplace 1-click images, or App Platform, BitLaunch lets you access those via crypto checkout. rdp.monster doesn't replicate the DO ecosystem.

Where BitLaunch actually wins
BitLaunch solves one problem really well: using DigitalOcean / Vultr / Linode with crypto. DigitalOcean has a polished ecosystem (Spaces S3-compatible storage, Marketplace 1-click apps, App Platform, a solid API) that takes years to replicate. If your workload depends on it and you want crypto-only checkout, BitLaunch is the right answer, and we can't replicate the DO platform.
Their Lightning Network support also stands out: fast, low-fee BTC payments for sub-$10 charges, which on-chain BTC doesn't handle well.
BitLaunch stops making sense when you don't need the DO/Vultr ecosystem. You pay DO's price plus BitLaunch's margin for what's basically a resold droplet. rdp.monster owns its infrastructure, doesn't carry that margin, and gives you Windows out of the box (BitLaunch's Linux-focused resells make Windows clunky). Plus XMR support, which BitLaunch doesn't offer.

BitLaunch alternative: your questions, answered
Is rdp.monster cheaper than BitLaunch?
BitLaunch's entry plan is $5/mo (DigitalOcean's $4 plus their margin). rdp.monster starts at $8.99/mo: a bit more on paper, but you get Windows out of the box, XMR payments and direct hardware. Different deals.
Does rdp.monster accept XMR (Monero) like BitLaunch?
BitLaunch doesn't accept XMR: only BTC, LTC, ETH, USDT, Lightning. rdp.monster accepts XMR, so we're the right call if Monero is your preferred privacy coin.
Why is BitLaunch a 'resell' of DigitalOcean?
BitLaunch built a crypto-payment layer over the DigitalOcean / Vultr / Linode APIs. When you order a 'BitLaunch droplet', they provision a DO droplet under their own DO account, route your traffic through it, and bill you in crypto. The infrastructure is DO's. rdp.monster owns the hardware directly.
Can rdp.monster do hourly billing like BitLaunch?
No, rdp.monster bills monthly. If you specifically need DO-style hourly billing (turn servers on and off freely), BitLaunch fits better. Most setups run around the clock, so monthly works out cheaper.
Does rdp.monster support Lightning Network like BitLaunch?
No, among hosts like us, Lightning is unique to BitLaunch. We accept on-chain BTC with confirmations. If sub-$10 Lightning payments are critical for you, BitLaunch wins on that one.
Can I run a Windows desktop on rdp.monster?
Yes, a preconfigured Windows desktop. BitLaunch is mainly Linux (DO doesn't push Windows); Vultr supports Windows, but it gets clunky with BitLaunch's billing layer on top.
Does rdp.monster require KYC?
No ID, no selfie. Same anti-KYC stance as BitLaunch.
What's the difference between BitLaunch and rdp.monster?
BitLaunch is a crypto-billing layer over DO/Vultr/Linode: you get their ecosystem with crypto checkout. rdp.monster is a direct VPS provider: we own the hardware, give you Windows out of the box and accept more cryptos, including XMR. Built for different people.
