What is the OBSIDIAN* PUBLISH charge?

Why it shows up like this

A statement descriptor reading OBSIDIAN* PUBLISH corresponds to a recurring subscription fee charged by Dynasty Technology Inc. for web hosting, custom domain publishing, and digital garden sharing. This billing line represents an active Obsidian Publish Web Note Hosting Subscription, which enables knowledge management enthusiasts to share local markdown vaults and interactive graph views directly on the web.

Customers typically encounter this charge when they maintain a monthly or annual subscription for publishing research notes or personal wikis. Statement lines might show variations such as DYNASTY TECHNOLOGY or OBSIDIAN.MD depending on the credit card payment gateway. Pricing is structured per site on a recurring monthly or yearly renewal cycle unless auto-renewal is disabled ahead of the scheduled billing date.

If you do not recognize this charge on your bank statement, verify whether another user in your household manages a knowledge base or public website on the platform. You can log into your online account portal to review active subscriptions and past invoices, disable automatic renewals, or contact customer support to request billing assistance and check refund eligibility.
