Pricing
Claim costs are tiered by name length. Shorter names cost more because they're scarcer.

Marketplace pricing
Names listed for sale have their own prices set by the seller. When you buy a name, you pay the listed price (not the claim cost). The claim cost only applies to unclaimed names.
USD estimates
The search interface shows approximate USD equivalents based on the current ZEC/USD exchange rate, fetched from Coinbase, CoinGecko, and Kraken (with fallback).
