Darknet market links and mirrors

How to read the board

Each row on the board is one market. Every address under a market name is a mirror of that same market, not a different site. Pick the market you want, then pick any address in its row. There is a copy button next to each address, and the address itself is clickable, so you can copy it or open it directly. Nothing about a row is ranked. The first address is not more correct than the last one, and no address is a "backup" for another. They are the same market, listed more than once so that at least one of them reaches you when you try.

How to use a mirror address

Copy the address you want, paste it into the address bar of Tor Browser, and press enter. Do not retype it by hand. A v3 onion is 56 characters, and a single mistyped character points at a different site entirely, one that may look almost identical. Then wait. Tor builds a fresh circuit for the address, and a v3 circuit takes roughly ten to sixty seconds to establish, sometimes longer on a slow connection. Let it finish before you reload, and reload once if it stalls. Before you enter a username or a password, compare the last six characters of the address in the bar against the last six on the board. If they match, you are on the address you chose. If they do not, stop and copy again.

Why one market has several addresses

Markets rotate their keys. A hidden service is identified by a cryptographic key, and when the key changes, the address changes with it, so the old address stops working. Markets also face traffic problems: a DDoS on one address, a bad routing path, a moved server, and each of those pushes them to open another entry point. So a market carries several addresses at once, and the number changes over time as keys rotate and old ones are retired.

None of that creates a hierarchy. Every address for a market opens the same storefront, the same listings, the same login. The ideas of a "main mirror" and a "backup mirror" do not exist at the market. They are a habit of the people who share links, not a property of the onion. Treat every address in a row as an equal, working way in.

Signs the address is wrong

• The character count before .onion is not 56. A v3 onion is exactly 56 characters, so 55 or 57 is a copy error or a different address.
• A 0 or a 1 appears inside the address. The base32 alphabet has no zero and no one, so either digit means the string is not a valid v3 onion.
• One letter differs from the address you expected. That is a typosquat, a lookalike registered to catch people who mistype, and it opens a different site that may copy the market's look.
• The address goes through a clearnet proxy, a gateway ending in something like .onion.watch. The proxy sees your traffic, so it is fine for a glance but not for a login or a payment.
• The address came from a comment or a "new address" post. The single most common way to end up on a stranger's site is to paste an address that a forum reply or a comment claims is current, without checking it against a second source.

Market pages

Each market has its own page with its addresses, its PGP fingerprint, and the lookalike addresses to watch for. Start with one of these, or use the access guide if it is your first visit to a darknet market:

• TorZon Market
• WeTheNorth (WTN)
• Nexus Market
• BlackOps Market
