We STRONGLY RECOMMEND using ADR because it is exactly the same steps a moderator would take during a dispute without the need to babysit both parties. The money stays safe in escrow until you confirm you have received the goods to the advertised standard and you are satisfied with it. Once you release escrow the money goes to the seller and the sale is finalized. This means you can not dispute or get your money back once the sale is finalized. NO fentanyl or fentanyl-laced/based substances (even if it is done ‘correctly’). We no longer allow fentanyl or substances laced/based on it due to buyer safety.

For safety of both buyers and sellers we warn you that making a transaction outside of our secure escrow is 100% your responsibility. If a vendor/buyer is asking you to do that he might be attempting to scam you, immediately report that user. When equipped with Flashpoint Intelligence, you have access to collections across illicit online communities ranging from private forums and illicit marketplaces to encrypted chat services channels to gain insight into threat-actor activity on a global scale.
As part of the site’s relaunch, multiple new features have been advertised and new rules announced. Notable among new features are AlphaGuard , an automatic system to resolve disputes between buyers and sellers, exclusive use of Monero wallets, and the offering of I2P mirrors. Concerning rules, items newly prohibited from sale include COVID-19 vaccines, firearms, products containing the narcotic fentanyl, pornography, and “hitman services”. Furthermore, there is a ban on discussions of any public or private information related to the governments, organizations, or people of Russia, Belarus, Kazakhstan, Armenia, and Kyrgyzstan.

The new AlphaBay market’s Tor service has been unstable since its launch, with frequent 503 errors, user registration issues, and login timeouts. After almost two months of operation, the market has a handful of vendors, with only a couple of hundred listings across drugs and fraud goods. DeSnake claims there have been 15,000 user accounts created, 450 vendors registered, and over 400 listings published as of the time of writing.

Trust Level works by taking into account many factors but most importantly what is the trust factor of a user who has clicked Trust or Distrust on a given profile.
