Observed Market Price
Observed price history
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.
2 disclosed single-account prices, each a verified observation. Points are joined for readability only; the record holds no prices between them.
Projected 12 months out: $8.96 · range $0.57–$140.71 (80% projection interval, model p0.3) · projection, not evidence. Outlook
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.
Demand drivers
Compromised Apple ID and iCloud accounts were listed among the most valuable non-financial account types in a darknet price study, behind only banking and payment credentials.
Around 900,000 iCloud username and password pairs appeared in an exposed credential database attributed to infostealer malware, supplying bulk takeover attempts.
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.

Sanitized record
“A researcher found a publicly accessible database of roughly 149 million credential records, of which about 900,000 were Apple iCloud username and password pairs. The records were attributed to infostealer malware rather than a compromise of Apple infrastructure.”
“The same recurring darknet price index reported a year-over-year decline in advertised prices for Apple ID accounts, which the authors read as softening demand relative to other brands in the sample.”
“Reporting on a darknet price study found that compromised Apple ID and iCloud accounts were among the most highly valued non-financial account types listed on several marketplaces, with an average advertised price of about $15, behind only banking and payment credentials.”
