01. Platform Overview

BlackOps Market Mirrors serves as the verified entry node for the BlackOps darknet ecosystem. We provide cryptographically signed V3 onion addresses to ensure a secure, direct connection to the marketplace. Our primary objective is to maintain access continuity and provide operational security resources for users navigating the Tor network.

Secure access requires the Tor Browser (latest version). Once configured:

  1. Navigate to our Links page.
  2. Copy a verified V3 onion address (e.g., yjqgwd5iqoog6s2xazggwu4iyjocziijdcixqlwh5e6vjbks63ojd6yd.onion).
  3. Disable JavaScript in your Tor Security Settings (Safest Level recommended).
  4. Paste the address into the Tor URL bar.

Never attempt to access .onion domains via clear-net browsers or proxies.

BlackOps is a next-generation darknet platform launched in Q1 2024. It is built on a zero-trust architecture, operating exclusively with Monero (XMR) and enforcing strict PGP protocols. The market hosts over 2,800 verified vendors and utilizes a distributed mirror network to maintain 99.8% uptime against DDOS attacks. It is designed purely for utility, privacy, and resilience.

02. Operational Security (OpSec)

Yes. BlackOps Market enforces mandatory PGP encryption for all sensitive interactions. Users must upload a public PGP key to their profile to enable Two-Factor Authentication (2FA) and to encrypt shipping details. This decentralized security model ensures that even if the central servers are compromised, user data remains cryptographically indecipherable.

Verification is critical. Always verify the digital signature of the mirror list using the market's official PGP key (available on the Links page). Furthermore, upon accessing the login page, verify that your personal security phrase is displayed correctly. If the phrase is missing or incorrect, terminate the connection immediately.

To maintain absolute anonymity, we do not store email addresses or personal identifiers. Password reset is possible ONLY via the mnemonic seed phrase provided during initial registration. If you lose both your password and your mnemonic seed, your account and any associated funds are permanently irretrievable. Store your seed offline.

03. Financial Infrastructure

Bitcoin and other transparent-ledger cryptocurrencies are unsuitable for secure darknet operations due to chain analysis capabilities. Monero is mandated for its robust privacy features: Ring Signatures, RingCT, and Stealth Addresses. These protocols mathematically obscure the sender, receiver, and amount, rendering transactions untraceable and ensuring true financial privacy.

All standard orders are protected by Escrow. Funds are held in a multi-signature market wallet until the buyer confirms receipt or the auto-finalize timer (7-14 days) expires. Finalize Early (FE) is a privilege granted only to vendors with 300+ sales and a 4.90+ rating, allowing them access to funds upon dispatch. Buyers should exercise caution and only FE with trusted vendors.

To prevent double-spend attacks, Monero deposits require 10 confirmations on the blockchain before becoming available in your wallet balance. This process typically takes 20 to 40 minutes, depending on network hashrate. Users should verify the deposit address is signed by the market PGP key before sending funds.

04. Vendor & Order Management

Vendor status is restricted to verified entities. Applicants must pay a vendor bond via the dashboard and undergo a vetting process. Established vendors migrating from other markets may apply for a bond waiver by proving ownership of their PGP identity and providing reputation evidence from recognized platforms.

Disputes are mediated by impartial staff. If an order is not received or violates terms, the buyer must open a dispute before the auto-finalize timer elapses. This action freezes funds in escrow. Both parties submit evidence (encrypted logs, photos, policy referencing) for administrator review. Decisions are final and based strictly on the evidence provided.

Yes. BlackOps Market integrates a comprehensive Harm Reduction framework. Product pages include mandatory sections for dosage information, substance interaction warnings, and reagent testing results where applicable. We prioritize user safety and informed decision-making over pure transaction volume.
