NullPaste

◈ anonymous pastebin

Anonymous paste

Free anonymous pastebin — share plain text or code with a link. No account, no tracking, no IP stored. Optional expiry, password, burn-after-read, or end-to-end encryption.

Password protection controls access — it is not encryption. For content the server should never see, use end-to-end encryption.

Ctrl+Enter to create · delete code shown once

NewNullDrop is live — private, temporary file sharing with the same browser-side encryption as NullPaste.

How it works

  1. 01

    Write or paste

    Drop in plain text or source code — up to 1 MB. The language is auto-detected for syntax highlighting, or set it yourself.

  2. 02

    Choose how it lasts

    Pick an expiry from 10 minutes to never, or turn on burn-after-read so the paste self-destructs after one view. Add a password or end-to-end encryption if you want.

  3. 03

    Share the link

    Get a short URL to share anywhere. No account, no tracking. Every paste comes with a one-time delete code — shown once at creation — so you stay in control.

Frequently asked questions

Is NullPaste really anonymous?
Yes. There are no accounts and no sign-up. We don't run analytics or third-party trackers, and raw IP addresses are never stored — rate limiting uses a hashed (HMAC-SHA256) identifier instead.
How long does a paste last?
You choose: 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, 1 week, or never. Timed pastes are deleted automatically once they expire. You can also enable burn-after-read so the paste is destroyed after a single view.
What is burn-after-read?
A burn-after-read paste is permanently deleted after its first read. Opening the link shows a confirmation first — reading only happens after an explicit click, so link-preview bots in Slack or Discord can't consume it. Note that whoever opens the link first is the one who burns it, and a reader can still copy the content.
Can I password-protect a paste?
Yes. Add an optional password and only people who know it can open the paste. Passwords are hashed with Argon2 on the server. A password controls access — the server still stores the content. For content the server itself should never be able to read, enable end-to-end encryption, which encrypts in your browser and keeps the key only in the share link's #key= fragment.
How do I delete a paste?
Every paste comes with a one-time delete code shown right after creation — save it, then use it to remove the paste at any time, no account needed. Timed and burn-after-read pastes also disappear on their own.
What can I paste, and how large can it be?
Any plain text or source code, up to 1 MB per paste. Code is shown with Shiki syntax highlighting and the language is auto-detected, or you can set it yourself.
Can I share files, photos, or other binary content?
NullPaste is built for plain text and code, not files. For photos, videos, PDFs, archives, or any other file, use NullDrop (nulldrop.org) — the file-sharing sibling in the same privacy-first family, with expiring links and full browser-side encryption.
Is NullPaste free?
Yes, completely free. NullPaste is a free anonymous pastebin — there are no plans, no limits on the number of pastes you create, and no account required.
Do I need an account to use NullPaste?
No account is needed. NullPaste is designed as a pastebin without sign-up — just open the site, write your paste, and share the link instantly.
Can I share code anonymously?
Yes. NullPaste is an anonymous pastebin built for sharing code and text without any identity attached. No login, no email, no raw IP addresses stored — just a link.
What is the best free pastebin with no account?
NullPaste is a free anonymous pastebin that requires no account or sign-up. All features — expiry, burn-after-read, password protection, end-to-end encryption, and syntax highlighting — are available for free without registration.
How do I create a temporary paste that auto-deletes?
Set the Expires option to 10 minutes, 1 hour, 1 day, or 1 week when creating a paste. NullPaste deletes it automatically once the time is up. Alternatively, enable burn-after-read to delete the paste the moment it is first viewed.
Is NullPaste a good hastebin alternative?
Yes. NullPaste offers everything hastebin did — no account, instant paste, syntax highlighting — plus features hastebin never had: custom expiry, burn-after-read, password protection, end-to-end encryption, and a delete code. It is also actively maintained, unlike hastebin.com which has been unreliable for years.
Can I use NullPaste to share code with syntax highlighting?
Yes. NullPaste uses Shiki for syntax highlighting and supports 100+ programming languages. The language is auto-detected from your code, or you can set it manually. Share a clean, highlighted link in under 10 seconds — no account required.
Is NullPaste a secure pastebin?
NullPaste has several layers of security: no IP addresses are stored, paste pages have noindex robots directives, there are no analytics or trackers, and optional browser-side end-to-end encryption means the server never sees the key for encrypted pastes. For sensitive content, enable encryption and burn-after-read.
How do I share text online without an account?
Open NullPaste, type or paste your text, and click Create Paste. You get a shareable link in seconds — no account, no email, no sign-up. The link works in any browser on any device.
