Short answer
Yes, you can host a server in Seattle without KYC. The United States is a Five Eyes member, so data sharing among intelligence agencies is possible, but legal access to servers requires a court order. The DMCA does apply here, so content subject to takedown notices must be addressed. OnionVPS's Seattle location offers NVMe storage and native IPv6, with plans starting at $4 per month.

Why hosting in Seattle looks the way it does
OnionVPS has operated this Pacific Northwest edge since 2022, drawing on hydro-backed power and short routes to Vancouver and Tokyo. The facility sits at 47.61, -122.33 with a 40 Gbit/s uplink and includes DDoS scrubbing, custom ISO upload, and native IPv6 /64. Estimated round-trips to Ashburn are 52 ms, to Frankfurt 112 ms, and to São Paulo 149 ms. The nearest OnionVPS regions are Vancouver at 5 ms, Los Angeles at 23 ms, Phoenix at 26 ms, and Dallas at 38 ms.
Seattle is the right home for latency-sensitive workloads serving the US West Coast and Pacific Rim: ad-tech bidding, real-time multiplayer game backends, and SaaS APIs. The 5 ms hop to Vancouver and short routes to Tokyo make it a solid edge for cross-border traffic. Engineers also deploy proxy nodes here when they need a US IP without the noise of a datacenter hub.

Frequently asked questions
Is United States a good place to host a server?
Pacific Northwest edge with hydro-backed power and short routes to Vancouver and Tokyo.
Is United States in the Five, Nine or Fourteen Eyes?
Yes — United States is a Five Eyes member. That is a legitimate consideration if state surveillance is in your threat model; it says nothing about the quality of the connectivity, which is why we operate here.
Does the DMCA apply to a server in United States?
Yes. This is a United States location, so the DMCA notice-and-takedown procedure applies in full and we operate a standard process for it.
How fast is Seattle from Europe and North America?
Estimated round trips are approximately 112 ms to Frankfurt and 52 ms to Ashburn. These are computed from great-circle distance rather than measured, so treat them as a floor.
Do I need to identify myself to order in Seattle?
No. Every OnionVPS location has the same signup: an email address you control and a cryptocurrency payment. No name, no address, no document, no card.
What is the latency from Seattle to the UK?
Estimated round-trip time from Seattle to the UK is not directly listed, but to Frankfurt it is about 112 ms. Transatlantic traffic from Seattle typically routes through hubs like Ashburn, adding latency. For UK-specific figures, check our network status page or test from a temporary instance.
Do you offer Windows Server in Seattle?
Yes, Windows Server licenses are available as an optional extra at $12/month on instances in Windows-licensed regions. The Datacenter edition is per instance. You can select this during deployment or add it later. Check the available regions in the control panel.
