Questions with no honest answer here
| Question | Why it is not answered |
|---|---|
| Which market is safest? | Not measurable from outside by anybody. Every site that answers it has decided something it cannot know |
| Is this market up right now? | Nothing here is monitored. Open an address and find out, which is the only real test |
| Will these markets still exist next year? | Nobody knows, including the people running them |
| Which has the best prices? | Fees and prices vary per listing and per order, so a market level answer would be invented |
| Are the addresses current? | They were when written down. Compare against a second source, which takes a minute |
These are exactly the questions people most want answered, which is why there is a market in answering them confidently. Wherever you find that confidence, the confidence is the product.
The short version of the whole site
- Filter by the coin you hold first. Everything else is a tiebreaker.
- Then by language or region, if either is a real constraint.
- Then by age. It is the only column that cannot be bought.
- Compare a whole address against your own saved copy. Never the opening characters.
- Keep a second market that fails for different reasons than the first.
Questions about this
How many Tor markets are in this catalogue?
Nine, with twenty nine published addresses between them. The list is short on purpose. Adding entries with no track record would stop it sorting anything.
Which Tor market is the best?
No page here answers that, because the answer depends entirely on a constraint you have and this site does not. Start from the filter pages or from the coin you hold.
Which markets accept Monero?
All nine. It is the only coin every entry here takes, which makes it the least restrictive thing to hold. See the Monero page.
Which market accepts Ethereum?
Only Anubis, out of the nine. That is the narrowest filter on this site. See the Ethereum page.
Which is the oldest market here?
WeTheNorth, running since 2021, which is also the only regional entry and the only one presented in French as well as English.
Which market publishes the most addresses?
TorZon, with five. The other eight publish three each. More addresses means more room when one is unusable and more to keep straight on your side.
Are these onion addresses verified?
They are published, copied as given. Nothing here is tested or monitored, so no page claims an address opens or that the thing answering is the market.
Why do so many addresses start with the market name?
Because opening characters can be chosen by generating keys until one matches. It is cheap for the market and cheap for anybody imitating it, which is why the middle of a string is the part worth comparing.
Is any placement on this site paid for?
No. No advertising, no affiliate arrangements and no money from any market. Nothing is ranked and nothing is recommended.
Is this site run by one of the markets?
No. It cannot reach an account, release an order or contact anybody on your behalf.
