Ask HN: Resources to Enter Darknet Markets?

by mbit8 on 1/10/22, 12:48 PM with 9 comments

Hello HN, i hope that i am not violating the community spirit by asking this.

How would i approach to buy e.g. Weed (which is to be legalized in my country) from a Darknet Market? What are your experiences?

Thanks

    Also, once you find a marketplace, where do you ship stuff to? Your home address? (maybe it's risky, maybe it's not a big deal, I don't know) Or do you pick it up from somewhere? (other kinds of risks with this)

    Archetyp is a pretty new darknet market that seems solid and ships stuff from and to various places around the world.

    You can find much better guides for this but these are the steps:

    1. Download TOR Browser

    2. Google the address to Archetyp, the url only works in TOR

    3. Enter the site and create an account

    4. Buy bitcoin or even better monero on for example localbitcoins

    5. Transfer the coins to you electrum wallet

    6. Transfer the coins from your electrum to the market place

    7. Find the stuff you want to buy (best sourced from your country) and buy it to an address you choose.

    edit: it struck me that this might not be allowed here, if so I apologise.

    If it was to be legalised, would it not be better all around to buy from sources that will contribute taxes and not towards crime?

    Presumably along with the legalisation there will come business opportunities?

    I'm not sure what kind of a response you're likely to get here on HN, but it _appears_ on the surface that you're asking for help with something both morally and legally questionable.

    dark.fail is your friend. Grab and verify the onion url, and bookmark it. It lists current markets. A game of DDoS whack-a-mole.

    you've mistaken this site for reddit
