Price list
What every rank costs.
This is the price of every rank on the board. Each row shows the placement total and the amount it takes to pass it. Placement starts at $3, and you hold your rank until someone spends more than you. You are never removed: you move down. Ranks nobody has bought yet are held on momentum by the repos that gained the most ground since listing, and any bid takes one. These rows are the top of the main leaderboard, with the funding source shown on each row. Rows further down are ordered by the ranking formula until somebody buys them.

The rules, in full
Placement is $3 to start. To pass a repo above you, spend more than its total. Payments accumulate on your own placement, so defending a rank costs only the difference.
The board never sits empty. Any of the top 5 slots nobody has bought is held by the repo that has gained the most stars since it was listed here. A held slot is not a placement: its holder paid nothing, the row says so, and $3 takes it. Every paid row outranks every held one, whatever the momentum behind it.
Placements never expire and are never refunded. If two repos reach the same total, the one that got there first ranks higher.
A placement changes where a repo sits and nothing else. It does not write a review, change a review score, or hide a bad review. See trust and moderation for the review policy.
