The Arkham analytics platform introduced a new subscription tier, Arkham Enterprise, on October 20. The service costs $1500 per month following a free trial period. This change restricts free users, who now see only 100 recent transactions per address instead of full history. Advanced features like Tracer 2.0, custom labeling, and counterparty viewing are now exclusive to paid accounts.
Despite community criticism regarding the shift toward paid access, the ARKM token price increased by approximately 8%. Data from TradingView shows the token rose from $0.119 at 1:30 p.m. UTC to roughly $0.128 by 3:00 p.m. UTC on the day of the announcement. Trading volume also saw a significant surge, climbing from $6.6 million to nearly $11 million within 24 hours.
The platform continues to offer free access to its Visualizer 2.0 transaction graph and block explorer for non-paying users. Additionally, Arkham has launched a grant program to provide free Enterprise access to independent investigators and public-interest researchers. The company is positioning its new model to monetize visibility for institutional clients and professional investigators.
