Let's #Encrypt rolls out free IP address #certificates • The Register

Let's Encrypt, a #CertificateAuthority (CA) known for its free TLS/SSL certificates, has begun issuing digital certificates for IP addresses.

It's not the first CA to do so. #PositiveSSL , #Sectigo, and #GeoTrust all offer TLS/SSL certificates for use with IP addresses, at prices ranging from $40 to $90 or so annually. But Let's Encrypt does so at no cost.
