Three active Tor markets, current onion URLs, verified mirror lists and honest reviews. Every URL is checked against the operator PGP-signed rotation before it lands on the page. No affiliate routing, no paid placements.
Monero-only Tor market with 2-of-3 multisig escrow, PGP-signed mirror rotations and several onions kept warm for uptime under attack.
Long-established Tor market with 2-of-3 multisig escrow, PGP-signed mirror rotations and a Monero-first payment stack.
Largest tracked marketplace by vendor count. Rotating verified mirrors, native Monero settlement and a mature dispute arbitration flow.
Queue-shielded XMR-default market. Anti-DDoS access page, five onions in active rotation and a familiar shopping cart interface.
Every onion address on this directory comes from the market operator PGP-signed rotation post. Not from search results, not from Telegram, not from any random forum thread.
Each market operator publishes a PGP public key once. We import it and pin the fingerprint.
When operators rotate a mirror, they publish a signed announcement on Dread. We fetch that message.
The signature is checked against the pinned key. If verification fails, the address does not go up.
Every verified URL lands on the market page here within the same day the operator publishes it.
Pick Nexus for the biggest vendor selection. Pick Anubis if you value dispute cleanliness and predictable moderation more than product variety.
Pick TorZon for the biggest mirror pool and the calmest login queue. Pick Nexus for the deepest vendor selection and Litecoin support.
Pick TorZon for the calmest login queue and the biggest mirror pool. Pick Anubis for the cleanest dispute record and Litecoin support.
The whole flow, from a blank machine to a working market account. Twelve minutes for a first-time setup, two minutes for every visit after.
The single check that separates a real market URL from a fake. Ten minutes to learn, ten seconds per rotation after that.
A phishing clone looks pixel-identical to the real login. It has to. The tells are almost never visual. This is the checklist that catches them anyway.
Old-style escrow puts every deposit in one wallet the market controls. Every exit scam of the last ten years worked because that wallet had one key. Multisig replaces that with three.
