Hetzner raises prices a third time in 2026, blaming AI demand for memory and GPUs, after April hikes of 30-53%. Plus Iroh 1.0 and OpenRouter Fusion.

The Call: Hetzner announces a fourth 2026 price step before October 31, citing component costs again, and at least one of OVH or Scaleway raises bare-metal or cloud prices in the same window. Settles by October 31, 2026.
