Hello fellow anons,

I was not impressed with the current state of dark net link directories because I could not find all important data in one place.
Therefore, I created darknet.observer where i try to give you the best overview over the current state of the so-called darknet.


features:
- 300+ tor services are scanned every x hours
- you can browse and filter services
- phishing check - verify mirror pages
- automated analysis of /pgp.txt
- automated analysis of /mirrors.txt
- automated analysis of /canary.txt
- scam warnings/reputation ratings

here are some interesting findings:
- services online: 316 (460 onion(v3) mirrors in total)
- every service has on average 1.33 onion(v3)-mirrors
- 41.5% use java script
- 39.9% set a cookie without asking
- 15.5% are OMG observant/compliant (and only 11 out of 23 canaries are healthy)
- 23.9% are shops (and most of them are scams)
- 18.1% offer hosting or other services (many scams)
- 8.6% are forums
- 7.5% are markets (multiple vendors)
- 6.9% are link directories
- 4.9% belong to ransomware groups
- if found 12 darknet search engines (3.5%) and 11 news sites (3.2%)
- of all sites which accept payments: 95% accept Bitcoin and only 35% accept Monero

What do you think? Are you missing a service or is some data wrong?
Please let me know.

We did similar work up and allot of the categories different but we actually found only about 8-10% of everyone selling something were legit. CC markets were about 3% legit excluding fee based entities like Brian’s club. There seems to be a struggle and the good guys are being wiped out. We also had far less of a good opinion regarding Monero than you seem to have. There seem to be allot of drops for Monero that are straight black drops and they couldn’t care less. They also seem to anticipate expenditures immediately and are far superior to the same type of person using other cryptos.

I love Monero because of the technology - it is far superior to Bitcoin in terms of anonymity and i expected it to be number one in the deep web because that is the frontier of anonymity tech. So i was genuinely surprised to see it having only a third of Bitcoin's acceptance.
Currently i am checking the forums in order to tag suspicious services as scam. It really looks like the bad guys are dominating the scene right now.
OMG compliance is way too low also. Is it so difficult to offer a proper /pgp.txt and a /canary.txt and maybe /mirrors.txt as defined in dark.fail/OMG? It would make the interaction with these sites much easier.

This whole industry needs streamlining, standardization and a reliable way to distinguish between good guys and scammers.
I see potential for blockchain insurance etc.

One of the major problems Monero is having is there are some very shadey people associated with it. People like Ryan Havar and Daniel Evans have used it to do their various crime sprees and scams with Monero so it is being associated by many with scammers. The complete anonymity can be a bad thing l
Guess huh? These people were said to be involved with developing it also so possibly they left something that assists them in their stealing it.

Thanks man.

Since this was posted in the darkne markets section, i have some questions though.
There are many Shops who sell gift codes. I have seen another thread about Scams and these Gift codes were mentioned as scams too.

My question is: Has anyone actually tested this?
Reason i am asking is that i have seen otherwise trusted marketplaces who also sell guides on generating gift codes for certain platforms, as well as sections inside of these marketplaces where gift codes can be bought.
It makes sense to use these gift code shops to scam people. But why would marketplaces add support for scams and what's the point of selling guides or code generators if this is not a real thing?
Just trying to make sense of this. And potentially join the crowd of scam victims 🙄

Another thing that i have seen is trade with hacked Paybal account's that also have money on them, reaching from 500-5000 per account. Gifted money ... also rieks like scam, but was also seen on a marketplace website.

So. Do i have to assume a scam anytime i see such an offer, even if marketplaces claim to not allow for scams on their platforms? Or do these sellers get rid of their "scraps" that would otherwise not be worth washing?
Maybe someone here has actually tested some of this, if not only just out of curiosity. I could use some quick bucks to kickstart something i was planning on.

I was gone for over a year because of reasons outside of my control.
Sorry for publishing a site and then disappearing. This should not have happened.

Luckily I'm still in control over the domain darknet.observer and I could even recover an early version of the site's source code from my long-time storage.

I'm working on a better version of the site and I'll come back much stronger!
