SCP-6080
Expected annual
$2.4M
One-time setup
$490K
Annual recurring
$2.4M
Personnel
15
Initial setup and specialized containment (chamber refit, Faraday/air-gap, secure vault) are the main one-time costs (~$490k). Recurring costs are dominated by staffing (security, research, medical) and contingency pools (D-Class program, rehabilitation, liability), producing an estimated annual operating budget in the low millions.

⚡ Cost Scenarios
📊 Baseline (baseline) $2.4M/yr
91.0% probability / year
Normal, uneventful year with routine testing cadence and no major leaks or large-scale incidents.
routine D-Class testing periodic duplication under safeguards no unauthorized public exposure
🚨 Minor Incident $2.5M/yr
8.0% probability / year +$75K vs baseline
Localized unauthorized viewing or small containment incident causing medical treatment, investigation, and limited public-removal work.
unauthorized viewing detected small-scale Rerun Event affecting few personnel
🚨 Major Breach $3.7M/yr
1.0% probability / year +$1.2M vs baseline
Serious viral leak or widespread unauthorized distribution of SCP-6080-1 leading to mass Rerun Events and large legal/medical/PR expenses.
viral online leak of SCP-6080-1 multiple affected civilians requiring large-scale response

📋 Confidence Notes
Many line items have wide ranges (e.g., D-Class program, liability reserves, legal takedowns, and Rerun Event medical severity). Core staffing and equipment costs are better defined; contingency/reserve estimates and incident probabilities are uncertain, producing medium confidence.
