Best Dark Web Markets 2022
Here we go. Each market has listed with an in-depth description and a short overview for your ease.
1. Royal Market
.onion address: http://royalrnpvfbodtt5altnnzano6hquvn2d5qy55oofc2zyqciogcevrad.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC + XMR
- Wallet mode: Wallet-less
- Total products: 20,000+
- Vending: $250.00
- Multisig: No.
This is a fully featured, third-party darkweb market. This means it accepts independent sellers, and sells almost everything that’s generally expected from one such market.
Right off the bat, I loved the fact that it didn’t copy its UI from Empire Market. The UI is slightly different, unique and minimalistic.
As of August, 2021; about 20000+ products are listed. The available product types include drugs, digital products, fraud-items, leaks, counterfeit etc.
It boasts over 21,000+ registered users despite the fact that registration isn’t mandatory for browsing products!
It’s wallet-less and that’s one of the best features any darknet market can offer. It allows payments both via Bitcoin and Monero.
Any individual can start selling after depositing a $250.00 vendor fee. There’s a PIN which protects account even if you lose your password. Additionally, 2-FA too is available which makes adds an extra security layer on top of your password.
For every single listing, it shows that specific listing’s ratings (positive/negative), F.E status of the vendor, the vendor level etc. The total completed orders for each vendor too is shown. Even ratings from other markets are fetched which help in verifying a vendor’s legitimacy.
2. Nemesis Market
.onion address: http://nemesis555nchzn2dogee6mlc7xxgeeshqirmh3yzn4lo5cnd4s5a4yd.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC + XMR
- Wallet mode: Wallet-less
- Total products: 2,000+
- Vending: $300.00
- Multisig: No.
Nemesis Market is a full-fledged P2P market which lets anyone buy and sell on the market. It brings a fresh and new interface which makes using the marketplace much easier.
Registration isn’t required to browse products. It’s a very new market and hence only has about 2000 products so far. The product-categories are satisfactory and it seems to sell everything from drugs, hacking, counterfeit, to fraud related items.
The current vendor bond is set at 300 USD which can be paid via BTC or XMR. This is non refundable. New vendors need to prove authenticity by placing a hand-written note next to product photos, this boosts legitimacy. Vendors also pay a 5% commission on each sale.
Both BTC and XMR can be used for product payments. One of its biggest USPs is that it’s wallet-less. For each order, users can send funds directly from external wallets without having to keep funds on the market.
3. WeTheNorth
.onion address: http://hn2paw7zaahbikbejiv6h22zwtijlam65y2c77xj2ypbilm2xs4bnbid.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC
- Wallet mode: Centralized deposits
- Total products: 3000+
- Vendor-fee: C$100.00
- Multisig: No
WeTheNorth is a pretty unique dark net market in the sense that it’s a Canada-only market. For now, it has just over 3,000 individual listings.
The products are available in categories such as fraud, carded items, jewels, security & hosting, drugs & chemicals, digital products and so on.
The market does require registration. No browsing is available without registering, which is free and anonymous.
They kept things simple by sticking to an interface that’s similar to the now defunct Empire or Alphabay market.
It’s a Bitcoin-only market and isn’t wallet-less. While that does increase exit-scam chances, it reduces transfer fee for each order and makes you more anonymous as there are less external transactions/order.
It’s a peer-to-peer market, and that means anyone can become a vendor. It has a very affordable C$100.00 vendor-fee (non-refundable). Established vendors get free vendor accounts and level-adjustments.
4. Tor2Door
.onion address: http://t5h72uz4hvyvwx6xyiyy6kpdoqyvyrg5yhe2ffxetb4lhn53onva5bad.onion/
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC and XMR

Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC and XMR

- Vendor-fee: $1000.00
- Multisig: No
Ares Market has a total of over 5500 products listed as of today. You can buy/sell anything and everything including drugs, cards, bank info, fake documents and what not. The only major restriction is “illegal porn” (fortunately).
It’s a P2P market so it does accept independent vendors as long as they make the $1000.00 fee deposit. The fee per sale is set at 4% which is to be paid only by the vendors.
It even provides free vendor accounts to those vendors who’ve come from markets which have now shutdown such as Monopoly, WHM, Torrez etc.
One of the biggest attractions of the market is that it’s wallet-less. This means you can make purchases directly from external, independent wallets. The market doesn’t force you to keep funds on market wallets.
Payment isn’t limited just to Bitcoin, Monero can be used as well. Finally, its UI is one of the cleanest and easiest to work with on this entire list.
6. DarkFox Market
.onion address: http://57d5j6hfzfpsfev6c7f5ltney5xahudevvttfmw4lrtkt42iqdrkxmqd.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC
- Wallet mode: Centralized deposits
- Total products: 50,000+
- Vendor-fee: $150.00
- Multisig: Yes
DarkFox Market offers “no-registration browsing”. Meaning, you aren’t forced to register just to browse the market or check the market out. Its interface is super clean and offers extensive data about vendors and individual listings for legitimacy verification.
As of today, it’s one of the most product-rich dark web markets with over 50,000 listed products! Drugs, erotica, guides & tutorials, software & malware, hosting & security, counterfeit items are just some of the available products. It even has an autoshop for cards!
There are 4 different payment modes. The normal escrow, finalize-early (no escrow), finalize-early 50% and even multisig transactions!
DarkFox Market is a Bitcoin-only market and isn’t wallet-less. All funds must be first deposited to the market wallet before they can be used to make purchases.
It offers PGP-based 2-FA and a PIN for protection. Vendor bonds are relatively cheap, priced at just $150.00. Free vendor accounts available for established vendors.
7. Asap Market
.onion address: http://asap2u4pvplnkzl7ecle45wajojnftja45wvovl3jrvhangeyq67ziid.onion
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC and XMR
- Wallet mode: Centralized deposits
- Total products: 30,000+
- Vendor-fee: $700.00
- Multisig: No
ASAP Market can be accessed without registration as well. Despite not being a very old market, it has managed to list over 30,000+ products which is an impressive number.
Now, majority of its listings are drug-related. The only non-drugs categories are Fraud, Counterfeits, and Digital Goods. It prohibits the sale of illegal porn, hitman services, and prostitution.
Anyone can start selling on the market if they can deposit the vendor fee, set at $700.00. This is never refunded.
The market accepts payments via both Bitcoin and Monero. It isn’t wallet-less though, deposits must be made to the market wallet. The minimum deposit for Bitcoin is 0.00010 BTC while the smallest XMR deposit must be 0.06XMR. Leftover funds can be withdrawn.
PIN and 2-FA (PGP-based) are the two major security features.
8. UnderMarket 2.0
.onion address: http://puyr3jb76flvqemhkllg5bttt2dmiaexs3ggmfpyewc44vt5265uuaad.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC, LTC, DASH, BTCH, DOGE, ETH.
- Wallet mode: Wallet-less
- Total products: 600+
- Vendor-fee: Free + 15%/sale
- Multisig: Yes
UnderMarket 2.0 offers one of the most unique and different interfaces out of all the markets listed above. That doesn’t mean it’s not outdated, boring and just messy. For starters, when you click on product-categories, it’ll show a list of vendors instead of products. You must check each of these vendors individually for their products.
As of March 2022, it has only 613 products listed by a total of 70 vendors. The vending policy is unique, there’s no vendor fee! It’s free for all. There’s only a 15% fee on all sales.
Also, it’s the only market on this entire list that doesn’t require any registrations, at all! You can even place orders without registering! Because there are no accounts, there are no wallets either. Users can pay directly from their external wallets.
It also offers multisg escrow for more secure transactions. A very wide range of Cryptocurrencies are accepted, the list includes BTC, ETH, LTC, DASH, DOGE, and BTCH.
9. Cocaine Market
.onion address: http://cocain2itdseriirz6akhtukerj7hh6cnkytkgrfjdsxn65rknizbjyd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC
- Wallet mode: Centralized
- Total products: 30+
- Vending: Not allowed
- Multisig: No
Next, we have on dark web market list is Cocaine Market.
This too is a single-vendor market and doesn’t allow independent sellers to sell on the market. It can only be accessed after registering on the platform.
Obviously, as the name hints, it’s exclusively for Cocaine. Many different types of Cocaine is sold but no other drug or products are available.
The market isn’t wallet-less. It does provide an in-market wallet for deposits. Only BTC can be deposited to the wallet.
Because it’s controlled by a single vendor/group and because of its niche-limit, only about 30 products are listed so far.
No other advanced account or security features available. No escrow is used either.
10. Silk Road 4
.onion address: http://silkroad22gtemddxbbfxe57xmb4mxgcwnbwbvarpbghsseluxwdnvyd.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC
- Wallet mode: Wallet-less
- Total products: 2000+
- Vendor-fee: Not specified
- Multisig: No
I’ll be honest, this definitely isn’t the best darknet market out there. However, it’s still a market that offers acceptable products and features.
For starters, the interface is extremely basic. It’s almost like a static webpage with listings on it.
The market doesn’t have many products either, maybe 2000 at best. Also, almost all the categories are drug-centric. There are two exceptions to this, the “Digital” category and the “physical” category.
Obviously poison, weapons, illegal porn etc. aren’t allowed. Surprisingly, it doesn’t allow users from Russia or the sale of any Russian personal information either.
It does accept independent vendors. In fact, even for vendor-transparency it’s pretty impressive. For each vendor, his/her positive, negative and neutral feedback and vendor level is displayed. The market doesn’t offer much information on how to become a vendor though.
The market offers standard escrow, F.E and even 50% F.E feature. For payments only Bitcoin is accepted. On the brighter side, no centralized wallet are used. It’s all wallet-less.
The basic security features exist, 2-FA and security PIN. A search-panel does exist but it doesn’t really offer many good filters.
11. Vice City
.onion address: http://vice2e3gr3pmaikukidllstulxvkb7a247gkguihzvyk3gqwdpolqead.onion
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/XMR
- Wallet mode: Centralized
- Total products: 8000+
- Vendor-fee: $300
- Multisig: No
The name for the market is inspired from the wildly popular video game with the same name. Even the admin calls himself Tommy Vercetti (the protagonist in the game).
Anyway, it too is a third-party, escrow marketplace which connects buyers and vendors. The vendor account costs $300.00.
Registration is required to gain any and all kind of access to the market.
In a surprising bid, the market prohibits all and any kind of “porn”. This even includes porn accounts. Obviously weapons and hitman services too are banned.
The products can be purchased using both Bitcoin and Monero. It isn’t wallet-less. For both the cryptocurrencies, advance deposits is mandatory. 3 confirmations for Bitcoin and 10 for Monero required.
It easily boasts about 8000 products listed in various categories such as fraud related products, digital items, counterfeits, Benzos, Stimulants and over two dozen other drug types.
For each vendor, total positive rating and sales is shown. Also fetches the vendor’s performance (sales/ratings) from other darknet markets. Finally, the market does offer 2-FA as well as the security PIN.
12. The French Connection
.onion address: http://abyssou4y5ang24dn4cfkrwd3fsiczx7xg7n7mzlcthrpktfcar6j2qd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
- Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC
- Wallet mode: Centralized
- Total products: Not specified
- Vending: Not allowed
- Multisig: No
TFC isn’t a multi-vendor market. It’s owned by a single group. Despite that, it’s being included here because it’s been here for a very long time and has proven its legitimacy.
It’s one of the best dark web drug markets as far as single-admin markets are concerned. Ketamine, Heroine, Cocaine etc. are some of the available products. Everything can be purchased using Bitcoin only.
It doesn’t offer refunds of any kind. Registrations aren’t required for browsing products but are mandatory for placing orders.
No escrow, multisig or other security features available.
13. Televend
.onion address: http://televenkzhxxxe6sw4fntkm4csj6s4csqkuczqhrz6aw7ae3me2tjlyd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/XMR/LTCWallet mode: Wallet-lessVendor-fee: 1%-4%Multisig: No
This is probably the most unique darknet market I’ve ever seen! It uses “Telegram” as its market interface! Well yes, you can place orders, check vendors and basically do everything else using Telegram!
The products currently available include almost everything from drugs, clothing, electronics, fake documents to digital goods.
Vendors are accepted only if they can prove their legitimacy via Recon. Multiple vendor stages available such as “new vendor”, “verified vendor”, “established vendor” “veteran vendor” and so on. These levels are primarily dependent on the no. of sales made by a vendor.
Vendors need to pay a 1%-4% fee/sale. The exact % depends on the total sale amount by the vendor. Vendors need to deposit fee in advance on the market, any amount they see fit. This fee is used for all sales till it’s completely exhausted.
Despite being on Telegram, the market does have an “escrow” mode of payment. You can use escrow if you use Bitcoin. You can also pay using LTC, and XMR but escrow isn’t supported for these Cryptocurrencies.
Obviously it’s wallet-less, there are no “accounts” to begin with!
14. Torrez Market
.onion address: http://yxuy5oau7nugw4kpb4lclrqdbixp3wvc4iuiad23ebyp2q3gx7rtrgqd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/XMR/ ZCASH/LTCWallet mode: Wallet-less + Centralized (optional)Total products: 22000+Vendor-fee: $1500.00Multisig: Yes
Note: Torrez has been shut down.
Torrez market is one of dark web markets which is ruling the dark web (in terms of users, features and overall trust).
The market is about 1.5 years old and has a massive product arsenal of nearly 40,000 products.
It’s also one of the few deep web markets that doesn’t seem influenced by the Empire interface. Its own interface is still very easy and friendly.
The most well-stocked products on the market include drugs, software, carded items, services, tutorials, fraud-related items etc.
It obviously lets other individuals sell on the market. In fact, over 1700 such vendors have already registered on the market. The vendor-fee is currently priced at $500.00. For every sale, the vendors also pay a fee between 4-%-5%.
It accepts more Cryptocurrencies than most other darknet markets, users can pay using BTC, XMR, LTC and ZCash. What’s more is it even supports multisig transactions! That massively increases fund-security and minimizes scam risks.
My favourite feature, the wallet-less payment mode too is made available. This almost eliminates any exit-scam or fund loss risks. Optionally, the centralized wallets too are available in case someone wants that.
As far as vendor-transparency goes, it’s impressive. For each vendor, his/her total sales, positive/negative/neutral feedback, and a “vendor rank” (dependent on overall performance) too is shown. Moreover, it even shows the vendor’s performance on other markets! In a nutshell, legitimacy can totally be verified before placing orders.
For security, there’s obviously 2-FA and a security PIN. On top of that, it also provides temporary OTPs via Google Authenticator and a few other modes. That’s very rare for a dark web market.
15. World Market (#Shut Down)
.onion address: http://worldehc62cgugrgj7oc76tcna45fme47oqjrei4d4aa7xorw7fyvcyd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/XMRWallet mode: CentralizedTotal products: 22000+Vendor-fee: $1500.00Multisig: No
World Market is probably the most rapidly growing darknet market in the industry. The market does require registrations, this is free and anonymous.
If you ever used Empire Market, you’ll see major resemblance when it comes to the UI. This keeps things simple, friendly and easy to understand.
It has over 2200 products listed for sale. On top of this, an autoshop exists as well. It sells cards and accounts. Items bought from the autoshop are delivered instantly. There’s also a card checker which makes sure a user only pays for live cards.
All of these products can be bought using both Bitcoin and Monero. The market creates on-market wallet for each cryptocurrency, direct external purchases aren’t allowed.
For account security, there’s PGP-driven 2-FA as well as a security PIN for funds. The login phrase is missing though. (Does have a “profile text” feature but it doesn’t seem to work much).
Vending is open and allowed for everyone, has a pretty hefty $1500.00 vendor fee. The fee is non-refundable. The market can’t be used to buy/sell weapons, illegal porn, hitman & prostitution services etc.
Very informative vendor profiles are available. Vendor levels, trust levels, sales from other markets, total disputes, feedback score etc. displayed.
16. Revolution Market
.onion address: http://jagayshovxfjqpk4vs6cdjv5qbuyftrr57e5l4kwazmbyemjcasrwaqd.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC and XMRWallet mode: Centralized depositsTotal products: 3,000+Vendor-fee: 0.005612 BTCMultisig: Yes
Revolution Market is one of the least product-rich dark web markets on this list. It only has about 3000 listed products for now. However, it does have most if not all the features required to rule the industry.
For starters, it accepts both Bitcoin and Monero for payments. (It’s soon migrating entirely to XMR and getting rid of BTC). Unfortunately, it isn’t wallet-less. It provides on-market wallets for both the Cryptocurrencies, funds can only be used for purchases from this wallet.
Independent sellers are accepted for 0.005612 BTC or 0.743784 XMR. Established vendors can apply for the free vendor account. It doesn’t allow the buying/selling of weapons, fentanyl, and illegal porn.
For security, there’s a private code as well as 2-FA. It even offers multisig transactions. It’s one of the very few darknet markets with a bug bounty program!
17. Versus Market
.onion address: http://pqqmr3p3tppwqvvapi6fa7jowrehgd36ct6lzr26qqormaqvh6gt4jyd.onion/
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC + XMRWallet mode: Wallet-lessTotal products: 1000+Multisig: Yes
When you land on Versus Market, its unique and modern design is sure to catch your eye. The market gives you a list of top vendors, promoted vendors and newcomers right on the homepage.
The listed products include services, drugs, guides/tutorials, legal items, digital products, software and surprisingly even “precious metal”. Verus Market accepts both Bitcoin and Monero for payments.
It’s the only dark web market that offers “guided escrow”. This helps first-timers use its 2/3 multisig with ease. Obviously normal escrow is available as well. The market does accept external payments hence making exit-scam least likely if not completely impossible.
Account security is ensured with an account PIN and PGP-based 2-FA. Vending is open for all. Established vendors get a free vendor account without having to pay the vendor fee.
18. CannaHome
.onion address: http://cannabmgae3mkekotfzsyrx5lqg7lj7hgcn6t4rumqqs5vnvmuzsmfqd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/LTCWallet mode: Wallet-lessTotal products: 3500+Vendor-fee: Not disclosedMultisig: Yes
CannaHome is one of the most feature-rich dark web markets on this list. It’s also one of the most “exclusive” markets (both for buyers and vendors).
Registration is mandatory and only possible if you have an invite code.
Then, its very secure and unique “phishing protection” is impressive. Second, it has a very unique and different UI from all other dark web marketplaces on this list.
Third, wallet-less payment mode! Anything can be purchased without depositing or holding funds in advance.
As the name suggests, it’s dedicated exclusively to Cannabis (and Shrooms). Available product categories include flowers, concentrates, edibles, distillate and shrooms.
On the welcome dashboard, it shows a list of the most active vendors. There’s a separate “top vendors” list as well, this helps instantly find the most trustworthy vendors on the market.
Sellers are obviously accepted. But even that’s exclusive and another reason why we love CannaHome. It requires that every single vendor must have at least 500+ sales and 6month+ experience. The market only accepts USA-based vendors.
For payments you can use Bitcoin and Litecoin! For security, users can enable 2-FA via PGP.
19. Cannazon
.onion address: http://cannazo73ou34ev3vnvuq75wb2ienpcztqudkdozpuitvykqhvtiffyd.onion
Market in a nutshell:
Accepted Cryptocurrencies: BTC/XMRWallet mode: Wallet-lessVendor-fee: $500.00Multisig: Yes
Cannazon is a “Cannabis Market”. If you need anything else, you better check the other options on this list of best darknet markets. If you are looking for dark web drug markets, it can be go to source for you. Here, you will find Weed, Hash, Seeds, Edibles etc.
You can check the products on Cannazon even without registration. It’s open for all.
Despite being limited with its product “niche”, it still has a few hundred products listed which is impressive.
Payments can be made using both Bitcoin as well as Monero. It ticks two of my favourite features, first, it’s wallet-less. So yes, users do not need to deposit funds to the market, they can use their external wallet to send funds directly to the market.
Secondly, it uses both 2 of 2 and 2 of 3 multisig transactions. No one’s getting scammed and that’s almost guaranteed.
It’s an escrow/third-party marketplace so obviously independent vendors must be accepted. It demands an acceptable $500.00 as its vendor-bond. It’s not a “fee” because vendors do get it back if and when they willingly close their vendor accounts.
It’s the only market I’ve seen which offers extensive guides on payment security, wallet interface and other non-market related topics.
Vendor profiles are descriptive! No. of positive/negative ratings, joining date, and even the total no. of completed orders is shown.
Darknet Market safety tips
I’m sure you’ve found a handful of best dark web markets to visit. However, here are a few tips you can follow when using these tor markets:
- Use a random, unique username for registration that you’ve never used anywhere in your lifetime.
- The password too should be unique, something you don’t use on the clearnet or anywhere else.
- Learn PGP! Encrypt every single message you send to vendors/admins.
- The “auto-encrypt” feature on some darknet markets isn’t secure. Never use it exclusively, without first encrypting your message externally.
- Try not to use your primary wallet to send funds directly to a dark web market.
- Never access these markets without NordVPN (or any other VPN that’s “dark web optimized” and has its “no log policy” publicly audited).
Conclusion – Best dark web markets in 2022
If you ask me, WeTheNorth, World Market, and Royal Market are some of the best dark web markets in existence.
That’s solely based on their no. of products and features.
The single-vendor markets listed towards the end are okay as well, however, the lack of an escrow isn’t very desirable.
Either way, remember to never use these darknet market links to buy/sell on these markets. Also, never visit these dark web markets links without a VPN!
