Digital Ocean is arguably kind of close. SoftLayer and Rackspace are the biggest players in this space, but unlike Scaleway there's no way to start at $10/month.

Why do you feel like you need bare metal though?

Disclosure: I work on Compute Engine, and we don't offer bare metal (so of course I'm trying to sell you on virtualized offerings).

I'm not really looking for someone like Rackspace. I want someone that lets me easily spin up capacity on demand at pretty low cost.

I love compute engine. I run a bunch of nodes on it, but unfortunately it doesn't do nested virtualization. I specifically want to run some virtual box workloads and some other stuff that needs light weight virtualization.

I've found a couple virtual server providers that offer nested Virtualization, but not entirely sure how it works. They were also crazy expensive.

scaleway is 3.59€ for arm bare metal. I love it ;-)
