well this follows Gresham's that "bad money drives out good" in this case Bitcoin is the good money which gets hoarded and leave the market while the bad money is Fiat
Hence it can be used for almost anything in the market.

Well for cloud storage services that accepts Bitcoins I would say sync.

Or you can try hosting services.

I don't know if it works for you or not, but with a small Google search, I managed to find a service that offers storage services and accepts Bitcoin as payment. Here it is:

Cherry Servers

You can check it out, what offers they have, whether it's secure enough for you or not, and whatnot. I didn't check much, but you can do it. Besides, you can find a bunch of these if you search in Google, or maybe even an AI model such as ChatGPT or DeepSeek can help you find some; I didn't try them for it but I'm just assuming they can help you with your search and it migth save you time.

Good luck.

I see a couple of options in proxystore-- gift card shop found in kycnot.me. Perhaps, you can research about them as I'm neither familiar nor have used the said services personally.

I do have concerns about the longevity of lesser known platforms as I think bigger brands has more chances to survive. But I guess, any respectful platforms would give an ample time + issue notices in case of winding down.

Personally speaking, I still prefer local storage with some sort of encryption for backing up important things.

Are you talking about those altcoin projects that offer stamping documents on their network? I followed one of them before but the document size is quite limited. I guess they don't want people to spam with hundreds of documents each day. Hard to trust those projects since their node is not that impressive.

They list Mega there which I used in the past. I'm not sure about their privacy policy now though. As far as I can recall I only registered with an e-mail and paid with Bitcoin with no issues a few years ago. CMIIW.

I only used their free plan (20GB free storage) while also using VPN, but Mega apparently accept Bitcoin since 2014.


That's weird, i wonder whether it's because they attempt to stop abuse of their free plain.

I want to diversify the physical backups, so having it at the same spot is not a solution. The blocks by Protonmail and Tutanota are due to "spam" and so they randomly lock your account if you log in from an unlucky node, that is if you are able to register a new email with Tor to begin with.

I will look at the links given on this thread, but probably none of them allow Tor, require doxing or other things. When I search "cloud storage" on kycnot.me nothing shows up.

Thanks for the list, I will check it out, but I suspect most will require some doxing during payments, which defeats the purpose of paying with BTC.
Does no one in this entire forum really use this service? It seems like an obvious use case of paying with BTC. Similarly to paying for a VPN subscription or so. I would like to know if someone could do a review for a service that they actually used, because im just seeing a lost of services but who knows.

These deals look reasonable and are lifetime payments which I prefer to having to send transactions periodically, the question is, for how long have these guys been giving this service? This is the problem with lifetime payments, today they are here, tomorrow they disappear and you already did your lifetime payment and no money back. Or another classic, they randomly drop Tor support due "spam" or something like that (see Protonmail dropping support for Tor registrations basically, and even if you manage to register an account, they make you enter an alternative recovery account, and only from email providers that only work if you are doxed during registration, so basically useless now for privacy).

As far as this internxt provider, when I go into the checkout window, there is no way to pay with bitcoin, it asks for either credit card or paypal, so at least on the website is not showing up.

You want service that accepts Bitcoin and keeps your data safe but it is hard to find one. There are few options but they might not be perfect. There is option is Blockstack which has storage service called Gaia that takes Bitcoin but you need to read their rules carefully. There is also Sia which lets you rent storage space from people around world but it uses different cryptocurrency means Siacoin. If you are worried about email services like Proton and Tutanota you might want to try Torguard or Mailfence which take Bitcoin and care about user privacy. Just remember to read rules and features of each service carefully before choosing one.

That's a really strict requirement IMO. Some companies offer a "lifetime" option but it means as long as their company is still profitable, so there's still a chance that you'll lose your files if you never back them up. I don't think using a lifetime option as a criterion to judge how long a company will last is reliable either. If your issue is forgetting or can't extend your plan, maybe you can compromise by looking at those who offer a grace period or something similar? Not to mention most of them usually send you notice before your plan expire.
