Thanks for the detailed comparison — this breakdown is very helpful for anyone weighing proxy options.
It’s clear that static proxy, also known as datacenter proxies, are ideal for users who prioritize speed and cost-effectiveness. They’re great for high-volume tasks like scraping and automation, where performance is key and anonymity is less of a concern.
On the other hand, static residential IPs offer stronger anonymity and are more reliable for accessing content that actively blocks datacenter IPs — making them better suited for sensitive tasks like sneaker copping, managing multiple accounts, or bypassing geo-restrictions.
It might also be useful to explore how rotating residential proxies stack up against static options in future discussions. But overall, this article does a great job highlighting the key trade-offs between static proxy types in terms of speed, reliability, cost, and detection risk.
