I need to top up my VPN and VPS subs until the end of the month and they only accept on-chain (even if they accepted LN, I'm running low on LN funds). I don't want to pay 30 dollar fees for 5 dollar payments. Where can I buy Monero p2p non-kyc directly for fiat (no btc swaps)?

Spent it all on zaps and don't have enough for my nodes. Also, Mullvad and 1984 don't accept it.

You still need to use btc on-chain for that

You can top up Mullvad via LN here:

Something I didn’t think about before but… Pierre implemented Lightning ⚡️ in Kraken before he left, so you should be able to buy Bitcoin off them and withdraw it via LN.

But yeah if you need on chain then it doesn’t solve that problem.

Or pick a VPS provider who accepts Lightning, I believe Lunanode does.

Why does the URL has no mention to mullvad? Seems suspicious...

IVPN is very good alternative

I'm running into same issues within next two weeks, too.. As far as VPN providers concerns, I'm fine. IVPN accepts lightning. Recently I discovered how to top up mulvad with lightning. Regarding my vps servers, my vps providers accept btc on-chain only. I don't want to pay 5 US$ vps bill and 30 US$ in fees. I'm on the search for vps providers accepting lightning. I know lunanode, but they offer vps in Canada only if I'm not mistaken. I'll keep searching.

So if anybody interested, I've found noKYC vps provider (Iceland based) accepting lightning. https://flokinet.is/vps-server.php
