That's not true. I found plenty of providers that do WHOIS reassignments, for typical rented servers in the 50-100 Euro price range. OVH does it for any customer, Hetzner does it for any customer, regardless of price. (They are both not suitable for exits though) It is purely a matter of labor, go

price? just a reminder: to run a tor relay you need a good CPU (newer then 2011 bc of AES in ASIC) and 1 GB HDD + 1-2 gig of ram. Basically the cheapest shit they have. I ran Exists on Scaleways Atom CPUs, worked :) You don’t want an upsell to a shiny fancy 8 core Xeon with TB of SSD storage.
