Drag or hover across the curve to trace it point by point — the trace snaps to disclosed prices only. Use the annotations below to read what each move is attributed to.

Annotations quote the cited public source for each price. The percentage is the arithmetic move against the previous disclosed price for this platform — a change in what was asked, not a measured market-wide move, and no cause is attributed beyond what the source itself states.

Dashed path and band: model projection from today onward — projection, not evidence. It is never stored as an observation or folded into the score.

One disclosed price only — a single figure cannot show a trend, and nothing is extrapolated from it.

Public asking prices only · Normalized to USD from the published currency using stored reference rates · Single-account and bulk unit pricing kept separate · Median, P25 and P75 only — prices are never inferred · Asking price may not reflect a realized transaction.

Every entry restates the abuse or fraud objective described in one named public source — press reporting, court filings, law-enforcement announcements, platform disclosures, security-vendor research or academic studies — and links straight to it. Nothing is inferred from other platforms, and no method, tooling or access route is described. Objectives documented in evidence are not a measure of how often they succeed.
