# VPS for AI Agents — Always-On, Token Signup, x402

**Short answer** An agent holds a wallet and speaks HTTP; the hosting it needs is a persistent KVM it can fund and administer programmatically. The path: mint a token over the API, top it up (x402 USDC on Base or any of nineteen coins), deploy from balance — root on a plan sized to the fleet, no KYC anywhere in the loop.

FYRHost: VPS from $3/mo and dedicated from $30.80/mo annual. The map spans forty locations — Reykjavik (Iceland) and Zurich (Switzerland) among them, plus Singapore, Dubai, Cape Town and fourteen others. Signup is email plus a 12-character password, or token-only. No KYC. Checkout is crypto-only across BTC, XMR, ETH, BNB, SOL, LTC, TRX, XRP, DOGE, DASH, ADA, GRAM (TON), and USDT (TRC-20/ERC-20/BEP-20/SPL). No payload or guest traffic logs; connection metadata ≤24h. DDoS included. One SKN company, one crypto checkout. Deploy at https://fyrhost.com/deploy/.

## What an agent actually needs from a host

Three things, and none of them is a dashboard. A **credential the agent can hold** — a bearer token minted over plain HTTP, standing in for the inbox-plus-password a human types. A **balance it can fund itself** — a signed stablecoin transfer or a catalog coin, credited by a watcher, no facilitator. And a **box that stays up** — a persistent KVM whose state, disk and IP survive between the agent's API calls, which hourly microVM markets do not sell. The x402 page documents the rail end to end: [x402 VPS](https://fyrhost.com/solutions/x402-vps/) carries the machine-flow specifics.

VPS from $3* (fund $50+), storage 1–5 TB NVMe from $24/mo annual-eff, dedicated with IPMI from $30.80/mo. Crypto invoice, no KYC.

## Playbook: mint, fund, deploy

From bare token to a running agent box
- POST /api/agent/account — the token is the account; minting accepts the AUP.
- POST /api/agent/topup with X-Payment-Mode: x402 — sign EIP-3009, broadcast, retry with the tx hash; or fund with BTC/XMR/USDT like a human.
- GET /api/agent/catalog — plans, locations, premiums, priced exactly as the human checkout shows.
- Deploy from balance: plan, flag, OS; root credentials return as JSON.

## Sizing an agent fleet

The same ladder humans use, read by machines. A monitor or a Telegram-grade bot fits Scout ($5.49 list, $3/mo funded): one vCPU, 2 GB ECC, enough for a heartbeat loop. Sentry ($7.50 / $6.00) is the production floor — 2 vCPU / 4 GB carries a working agent with local state. Fleets consolidate onto Ranger or Warden; anything queueing disk writes belongs higher or on the [dedicated line](https://fyrhost.com/solutions/dedicated/) from $30.80/mo annual-eff. Model weights up to ~30 GB are a [storage-tier](https://fyrhost.com/solutions/storage/) workload, not an inference ticket — this catalog sells no GPUs, and the honest section says what that means.

## Where agents actually run

Observed fleets on this pattern: uptime and change monitors that need always-on egress, trading and arbitrage loops close to exchange endpoints, Telegram/Matrix bot hosts, scrapers with PTR discipline, CI runners spawned by repo webhooks, and community-funded [nostr relays](https://fyrhost.com/solutions/solutions/nostr-relay-vps/). The common shape is small, persistent and stateful — which is exactly the slice-and-ECC shape of the catalog, not the container-by-the-hour shape of the x402 sandbox market.

## Security model for machines that own root

An agent with a token has full control of its box and its balance, so the blast radius of a prompt injection or a poisoned dependency is the whole account. Operational hygiene that actually helps: least-privilege API keys in the workload, egress allowlists where the fleet's job permits them, the balance topped up to the fleet's weekly need rather than a quarter's, and alerts on balance draw-down anomalies — a compromised agent spends money in patterns its owner did not write. The AUP binds the mint: whatever the agent does, the account owner accepted.

## Limits

No GPU inference here — routing, gateways, bot logic and consensus-adjacent tooling are the honest workloads, and model hosting means weights on disk, not training runs. x402 settles USDC on Base specifically; other assets take the coin path. Payments are final — no facilitator means no reversal. And the AUP is payer-agnostic: CSAM, phishing, spam and paid attacks are banned no matter what mints the token. Machine-grade honesty lives on the [x402 page](https://fyrhost.com/solutions/x402-vps/); this page is the workload view of the same rails.

Does an agent need an email address? No. The account is a bearer token minted over the API; an inbox is optional and only matters for human-style deployment mail.

Can one token run a whole fleet? Yes — one balance funds many deployments; the catalog endpoint prices each before the agent commits.

What stops a rogue agent from spending everything? Nothing but the operator's design: top-up to weekly need, alerts on draw-down, and revocation by stopping the top-ups — there is no chargeback on any rail.

Do agents get a different AUP? No. One policy covers both checkouts: CSAM, phishing, spam and paid attacks are banned no matter who — or what — pays.

Can a human take over an agent's box? Yes — the token works in the same panel humans use; SSH keys and credentials are the agent's to share with its owner.
