These auctions raised tens of billions of dollars for the public. The auction for crab quota in Russia in 2019 raised about 2 billion euro.

Throughout the 1980s the Northwestern kept very busy year round, fishing opilio crab, blue king crab, red king crab, and brown king crab at different times of the year. To keep up with the increasing demand for crab in the late 1980s and early 1990s, boats needed to carry more pots (steel box shaped traps that are used to fish for crab).
The blue crab, Callinectes sapidus was chosen as the state crustacean of Maryland in 1989. [17] C. sapidus is a crab found in the waters of the western Atlantic Ocean, the Pacific coast of Central America and the Gulf of Mexico. The blue crab may grow to a carapace width of 230 mm (9.1 in).

Dungeness Crab in an Aquarium. The Dungeness crab in the Puget Sound, Washington state is a non-genetically distinct population of Dungeness [1] that has been experiencing severely declining populations in the south sound region since 2013. [2] The cause of the decline is unknown, although it has been determined not to be due to overfishing.
Much of this foreign crab is reportedly caught and imported illegally and has led to a steady decline in the price of crab from $3.55 per pound in 2003 to $3.21 in 2004, $2.74 in 2005 and $2.30 in 2007 for Aleutian golden king crab, and $5.15 per pound in 2003 to $4.70 in 2004 to $4.52 in 2005 and $4.24 in 2007 for Bristol Bay red king crab.
