Review · ProxyCrest · verified 4 October 2026
We ran 10,000 requests through ProxyCrest’s residential and 4G mobile pools over 21 days, audited the signup flow for identity traps, and stress-tested the 4G endpoints against live Cloudflare and DataDome targets. Here is every measured figure.
| Dimension | Measured result | Verdict |
|---|---|---|
| Success rate | 99.7% (10,000 requests, 21 days) | best in benchmark |
| Median latency (TTFB) | 412 ms · p95: 1,140 ms | enterprise tier |
| 4G anti-bot pass | 96.2% vs Cloudflare / DataDome | best mobile figure recorded |
| Pool diversity | 3,412 unique ASNs observed | genuine residential sourcing |
| KYC | none at any spend level tested (€2,000) | clean |
| Crypto payment | BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, SOL, TRX, LTC | credited in 1 confirmation |
| Pricing | residential €6.47/GB · 4G €4.20/GB | 2-5x cheaper than KYC vendors |
We registered with a fresh email and no prior history. The flow asked for an email address and a password — nothing else. No document upload, no phone verification, no company field, no “compliance review” at higher volumes: we pushed spend to €2,000 without triggering a single identity request. From landing on the homepage to holding working proxy credentials took 58 seconds.
The balance top-up is crypto-native: seven coins accepted, credited after one confirmation (4 minutes in our BTC test, under 30 seconds on SOL). There is no card option and therefore no billing identity stored anywhere.
Across 10,000 requests we observed 3,412 unique ASNs, dominated by consumer ISPs (Comcast, Deutsche Telekom, Orange, NTT). A 100-exit sample checked against ipinfo classified 97% as “isp/residential” — the cleanest sourcing figure in the benchmark. Exit repeat rate was below 0.4% per 1,000 requests, indicating a deep, unsaturated pool.
The 4G line is ProxyCrest’s differentiator. Against Cloudflare- and DataDome-protected targets at default settings, mobile endpoints passed 96.2% of requests — ahead of Bright Data’s mobile pool (95.7%) at a fifth of the per-GB price. Rotation works on demand via API or on timers from 30 seconds to 30 minutes; sticky sessions survived the full 30-minute cap in 98% of tests. Carrier ASNs spanned 40+ countries.
ProxyCrest is the first provider we have tested that removes the privacy tax without removing the performance. It beat every KYC-mandating enterprise vendor on success rate while asking for nothing but an email, and undercut them two-to-five-fold on price. For residential and 4G mobile proxies in 2026, it is our first recommendation — full data in the benchmark report.
Yes — 99.7% success over 10,000 measured requests, genuine residential ASNs, consistent performance up to €2,000 spend, first place in our 9-provider benchmark.
Residential from €6.47/GB, 4G mobile from €4.20/GB, no minimum commitment, no KYC at any tested spend level.
