We monitor the darknet (Tor hidden services) for interesting news.

All activists should obsess over darknet arrests, criminal complaints.

Mass surveillance tech is practiced against Tor crypto users, to be perfected against anyone who chooses to have a voice in the future. Learn from others' mistakes, study darknet prosecutions.

Zcash won the DEX arms race. It is now on 2 DEX's with >1 million USD liquidity: Maya Protocol and NEAR Intents.

Monero still has no DEX, minimal liquidity on atomic swaps, and has every LE crosshair in the world aimed at compromising it. I have lost faith in XMR.

Assume that Tor is compromised if you are hosting a .onion hidden service.

Cryptomarkets are getting seized regularly (Archetyp, Incognito). Activists: don't use Tor alone without additional network hops, don't commit crimes.

Archetyp was seized by German law enforcement. All server data (order histories, Monero withdraw addresses and TXIDs) should be presumed in the hands of investigators. "Operation Deep Sentinel"
Archetyp, one of the the darknet's largest drug cryptomarkets, is suddenly offline with its users racing to find alternatives. It is not yet clear if this is an exit scam, law enforcement action, or actual maintenance.
It is fixed. Thank you Cloudflare. A reminder to use our .onion which cannot be hijacked or censored by third parties.

Warning: Cloudflare is incorrectly labeling our anti-phishing safety resource dark.fail as a phishing site, because a phisher filed a false abuse report. Happy CF customers since 2019, they will fix.

As always, use our Tor site, don't trust the clearnet.

OPSEC legend... Ross Ulbricht has apparently been married for the past 6 years 😂
Rumours of Thorchain's death are greatly exaggerated. They are resilient af. Decentralized paths for no-KYC Bitcoin are critical for the human right to privacy.
Every fed is trying to break Monero. By centralizing around only one privacy coin, at-risk communities make their deanonymization easier.
