Mobile proxy
Traffic routed through a real mobile network so that it arrives from a carrier-assigned address. Sold by the port or by the gigabyte, usually with a control to force a new address on demand.
Why it matters to you
Carrier address space is the hardest kind to block, because thousands of ordinary subscribers share it and rotate through it. A block here costs real customers, which is the property being sold. Judge the session by its behaviour, because the address will not tell you anything: an ordinary subscriber changes address when the network decides, while a session that rotates on a schedule or straight after a failure is being driven.
Where we meet it
They are advertised by carrier and by country rather than by speed, because the buyer is choosing which population to hide inside. That is a targeting decision made before anything has been attempted.
Connected terms
Residential proxy
Traffic routed through consumer devices so it arrives from an ordinary home address. Sold by the gigabyte, sourced from paid panels and from software that enrolled the device without saying so clearly.
Antidetect browser
A browser built to present a consistent, disposable fingerprint per profile: its own canvas, fonts, timezone and proxy. Sold so a stolen session can be replayed from a machine that looks like the victim's.
Checker
A tool that tests stolen credentials against a target service in bulk and sorts the live ones from the dead. The industrialized step between a combolist and an account takeover.

Bulletproof hosting
Hosting sold on the promise that abuse complaints go unanswered and legal requests go unread. Priced well above ordinary hosting, because that indifference is the entire product.
C2 panel
The web console an operator uses to run infected machines: victims listed, tasks queued, output collected. Sold with the malware, screenshotted in the advertisement, and often the most revealing artifact a crew produces.
Crypto mixer
A service that pools cryptocurrency from many senders and pays out from the pool, so that the link between an incoming and an outgoing transaction is broken. Charged as a percentage, sometimes with a delay bought separately.
