## Proxyware earn-app tier as a purchasable egress path (Honeygain, EarnApp, Pawns.app, Traffmonetizer, Repocket, Grass)

- `storage/proxyware-earn-app-tier-as-a-purchasable-egress-path` | self-hosted, last resort | verdict fails-egress | evidence reported | binding none | category contributed bandwidth - the supply side of the market
- needs card no, phone no, ID no, institution no | verified 2026-10-21 (inherited) | stale on 2026-11-05
- url https://proxypicker.com/what-your-wifi-is-worth/
- free tier: these pay you; they do not sell to you. Honeygain 10 GB = $1 ($0.10/GB); PacketStream $0.10/GB; EarnApp moved to hourly pay on 20 Aug 2025, ceiling $10/IP/month in the US and $5 elsewhere; Pawns.app, Repocket and Traffmonetizer publish no rate; Grass pays in points with no dollar rate | unit: GB | metered on: unstated | read on: 2026-10-21 | source: [1]
- per-object cap: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- retention: not stated | source: [1] | note: not stated
- egress: N/A - no HTTP egress endpoint is sold to consumers by any of them | metered: no
- identity: email | detail: email
- interface: unknown
- limits note: Answer: no. Every one of them is a supply-side client whose traffic is sold wholesale to a proxy network, and the buyer-side products are sold by the network (Bright Data, IPRoyal, PacketStream, Proxyrack), not by the app. The arbitrage of signing up as a contributor on one and consuming on another does not exist either, because the spread is 10x-45x and the contributor is paid in cash, capped per IP.
- interface detail: none exposed to a buyer at consumer tier
- tooling: part of interface detail
- composes with: none - but this tier is the source of the bytes that PacketStream/Proxyrack resell, which is why their retail floor is $1/GB
- reliability: Per-IP caps and per-IP demand make earnings non-scalable; Honeygain's own example needs three separate networks to reach $5-6.67/month; Emerging Threats now ships 'ADWARE_PUP: Bandwidth Sharing Tool' rules for 5 of these 8 domains, so IDS-equipped networks flag them.
- notes: the same as the free tier
- self hosted: yes
- extras:
  - dead_end.failure_class: quota
  - dead_end.why: these pay you; they do not sell to you. Honeygain 10 GB = $1 ($0.10/GB); PacketStream $0.10/GB; EarnApp moved to hourly pay on 20 Aug 2025, ceiling $10/IP/month in the US and $5 elsewhere; Pawns.app, Repocket and Traffmonetizer publish no rate; Grass pays in points with no dollar rate
  - dead_end.first_recorded: 2026-10-21
- evidence:
  - [1] 2026-10-21: 'Only 2 of the 8 apps publish what they pay per gigabyte, and both pay $0.10'; 'A gigabyte that earns you $0.10 sells for a median $4.50, a 45x markup'; 'EarnApp ... pays at most $10 a month per US IP address ... Outside the US the ceiling is $5'; 'Pawns.app, Repocket and Traffmonetizer don't publish a rate, and Grass pays in points'
  - [2] 2026-10-21: 'Network-contribution programs like Grass reward uptime consistency instead: no per-GB meter, no per-minute tally'; per-unit apps 'typically between 20 cents and $1 per gigabyte'
  - [3] 2026-10-21: '$2 starting gift'; rates not restated on the homepage
  - [1] 2026-10-21: Emerging Threats rules table: PacketStream, EarnApp, Pawns.app, Traffmonetizer, Repocket, Grass each get 2 rules in category ADWARE_PUP added 11 Feb 2026
