Example figures in USD, excl. VAT. Lease rates depend on block size, registry and reputation; sale prices follow the market. We confirm both for your block. Fees from our pricing page.

Questions
Do I keep ownership when I lease out?
Yes. The block stays registered to your organisation in the registry. Tenants get the right to announce and use the addresses for the lease term, backed by an LOA.
What decides the lease rate?
Block size, registry and reputation. Clean blocks lease faster and for more, so we check every block before placing it.
What if my block is blacklisted?
We check it during onboarding. Listings can be removed before placement at our fixed delisting fees.
Can I sell after leasing out?
Yes. Leasing doesn't stop you selling the block later.
How is lease income taxed?
That depends on your country and company setup. Ask your tax advisor; we can provide statements of what the block earned.
