Was this silk road? I've been meaning to scrape prices from there as a pet economics project.
- jmtame 15y agoNo, the project was called The Farmer's Market. While it operated on Tor, they accepted payments over PayPal which completely breaks the anonymity chain. Silk Road is still operational and uses other security mechanisms (in addition to a decentralized, digital anonymous currency) to further anonymize transactions, running all payments through a tumbler.
- joshu 15y agoSomeone should write up a tour guide to the deep dark web. I doubly wish I was indexing silkroad's prices, so we could see the price impact this event has.
- waterhouse 15y agoLooks like this is a working link: http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/04/17/net-us-usa-drugs-internet-idUSBRE83G01Q20120417 http://www.reuters.com/article/2012/04/17/net-us-usa-drugs-i... The new url has "net-" in it.
