All configurations feature industry-leading Ryzen processors with top-tier clock speeds, up to 25Gbps × 2 ultra-high-speed networking, and full-throttle turbo operation with no power or network throttling.

With this, all bare metal server inventory in London has been fully exhausted.

Why Demand Concentrated on London

The "Third Hub" of Europe's Stake Concentration Belt

In the Solana network, Frankfurt, Amsterdam, and London together account for approximately 55% of total network stake, forming the core network zone. Frankfurt holds the world's largest validator stake concentration, Amsterdam ranks second, and London serves as the third hub completing this concentration belt.

Frankfurt and Amsterdam saw demand concentrate early, with many configurations already sold out across both cities. London, while part of the same European stake belt, offered a compelling alternative — comparable stake density with significantly less competition than the two leading cities. Today's sellout is the culmination of that rising demand.

World-Class Financial City with Unmatched Network Infrastructure

London, anchored by the City of London, hosts one of the world's largest financial markets. Its historically massive investment in network infrastructure is unparalleled. LINX (London Internet Exchange) stands as one of Europe's largest internet exchanges, supporting ultra-low-latency connectivity across the UK and beyond.

The communications infrastructure built over decades to serve financial trading translates directly into an optimal foundation for Solana's high-frequency processing. London's network environment — where high-frequency trading, DeFi, and global Web3 projects converge — provides a structural advantage for performance-critical users.

Fastest Connection to New York — Transatlantic Geographic Advantage

London holds a geographic advantage that neither Frankfurt nor Amsterdam can match. For communication with New York — the largest Solana stake concentration in North America — London delivers the fastest connectivity among the three European hub cities.

The majority of transatlantic submarine cables originate from London, positioning it as the critical junction for Europe–North America communication routes. In Solana, where the block leader rotates on short cycles and the origin of communication shifts accordingly, maintaining fast connectivity to both Europe and North America directly impacts P99-level stability.

Why It's the Choice for the AI Agent Era

AI agent-powered development using tools like OpenClaw and Claude Code is rapidly becoming mainstream, with multi-agent parallel processing driving unprecedented development velocity. Unlocking the full potential of these workflows demands high-speed networking and high-performance compute resources.

On consumer-grade home networks, communication with AI becomes a bottleneck — task processing wait times exceed thinking speed, breaking development rhythm and preventing ideas from reaching full implementation. Premium bare metal servers with up to 25Gbps ultra-high-speed networking, industry-leading clock speeds, and 24/7 always-on reliability are the environments where multi-agent parallel processing truly delivers.

Accelerate development without ever hitting a wall — this demand from professionals drove the complete sellout of all London configurations.

Alternative in London — High-Performance Premium VPS

While bare metal servers are fully sold out, high-performance Premium VPS remains available in London.

Premium VPS features the industry's highest 5.7GHz clock speed CPU, 25Gbps × 2 ultra-high-speed networking, zero overcommit, and unlimited traffic — delivering bare-metal-level performance in a virtualized environment.

Premium VPS (2 vCPU / 8GB RAM / €128/mo)
Premium VPS+ (4 vCPU / 16GB RAM / €198/mo)
Premium VPS++ (8 vCPU / 32GB RAM / €298/mo)
Premium VPS+++ (16 vCPU / 64GB RAM / €398/mo)

All plans include zero-distance communication with the ERPC platform as standard.

The Performance Gap That Specs Don't Show

When choosing a VPS, most people compare vCPU count and memory alone. But two configurations with identical "4 vCPU · 16GB RAM" specs can deliver vastly different real-world performance.

Many cloud vendors and VPS providers engage in performance saving to maximize profit margins. CPU power-saving features, network bandwidth throttling, overcommitted resource sharing — none of these appear in spec sheets, yet they create massive gaps in actual processing speed behind identical-looking numbers.

ERPC's high-performance Premium VPS eliminates these performance saves to the extreme. CPU governor locked to performance mode, C-states disabled, network stack fully optimized — every layer is tuned for speed. Combined with zero-distance connectivity to the Solana network, the single largest bottleneck — network distance — is minimized.

Experience the performance that spec sheets can't capture. The difference is one you have to feel.

Struggling with Performance? — Migrate Your Entire Environment with SLV in One Command

Many teams recognize that faster environments exist but remain stuck on their current setup because migration feels overwhelming. Re-provisioning the OS, reinstalling dependencies, restoring configuration files — recreating "the same environment" on a new server can take hours to days, and that friction has kept teams from pursuing the fastest option.

SLV, the open-source Solana development tool, eliminates this barrier. SLV Migrate Linux copies your entire Linux environment — user data, configuration, installed packages, and SLV node setup — to the destination server with high fidelity, all from a single CLI command.

From cloud to bare metal, from legacy servers to latest-generation hardware, from another provider to the ERPC platform — regardless of destination, your Linux environment migrates in one command. The moment you feel limited by your current performance, you have the freedom to move to the fastest environment available.

First-Class Resources Only — Our Unwavering Principle

At ERPC, every configuration across all tiers is built exclusively with first-class resources. Deployed in data centers with the highest stake concentration in each region and connected to the ERPC platform at zero distance for maximum communication speed — this quality standard applies uniformly across every offering.

Because we select only first-class resources, supply is inherently constrained by physical limits. The complete sellout of all configurations in London is a direct result of maintaining this standard without compromise.

Frankfurt & Amsterdam — Still Available

While London is sold out, limited inventory remains in the other two hubs of Europe's stake concentration belt:

Frankfurt — Premium Data Center: Metal Premium APP+ (Ryzen 7950X / €398/mo) — a few units remaining
Amsterdam — Standard Data Center: Metal APP+ (Ryzen 7950X / €298/mo) — a few units remaining

Supply is extremely limited and moving fast. If you're considering these configurations, we encourage you to reach out promptly.

On the Price Trajectory of Premium Resources

Premium infrastructure resources such as rack space are physically constrained in supply. The rapid expansion of demand across AI and blockchain has continued to fill data center rack space in order of communication quality, with procurement costs rising year over year.

Because performance translates directly into value for these resources, the concentration of demand on well-conditioned configurations is structural. Now is the most favorable time to secure premium performance.

ERPC will continue to aggressively procure premium resources across all regions, including London. Availability will be communicated to waitlist registrants in order of sign-up.

5 Consecutive Years of WBSO Approval — R&D Driving Performance Gains

ELSOUL LABO has received consecutive WBSO approval from the Dutch government's R&D incentive program every year since 2022 — five years running. Ongoing research into ultra-low-latency Solana RPC infrastructure, validator placement, and operational orchestration automation feeds directly into platform performance improvements.

This month's AMD EPYC 5th Gen upgrade and the series of updates including HTTP adoption across all regions delivered over 120ms improvement in P99 latency for both Solana Geyser gRPC and Solana Shredstream. R&D gains are cumulative, and the rate of improvement accelerates over time.

The Next-Generation Option — AS200261 Solana-Specialized Data Center

ELSOUL LABO has been assigned its own ASN (AS200261) by RIPE NCC and is preparing the launch of a Solana-specialized, top-tier data center. Designed to surpass existing premium data centers, it is expected to begin operations from late this month to next month.

Featuring a hardware stack unified on the latest AMD EPYC 5th Gen, AMD Threadripper PRO 5th Gen (9975WX, etc.), and NVMe 5th Gen, combined with optimal network routing through our own ASN. This achieves what was previously considered mutually exclusive — maximum performance and ASN concentration score simultaneously.

The initial lot is fully reserved, but subsequent inventory will be offered in waitlist order. For those who demand the highest quality, we encourage you to register now.

Waitlist & Contact

Waitlists are available for all sold-out configurations and the new data center. Please create a support ticket via the Validators DAO official Discord. You will be contacted in registration order as availability is confirmed.
