Secure, anonymous access to the longest-standing darknet marketplace with over 45,000 listings and 1,500 trusted vendors.
Established in late 2020, Abacus Market quickly became a leading destination on the darknet, filling the gap left by the closure of AlphaBay. Initially launched as Alphabet Market, it rebranded in October 2021 to differentiate itself from AlphaBay. Today, Abacus Market features over 45,000 active listings, has amassed a community of nearly 1 million users, and boasts over 1,500 vendors, cementing its status as the longest-standing darknet marketplace, with Archetyp closely following.
Abacus Market has undergone multiple security audits by top penetration testing firms, achieving a perfect security rating of 10/10. This focus on security reflects the platform's commitment to protecting its users and their transactions.
Unlike other larger darknet markets such as Archetyp Market and Drughub Market, we do not dictate how a market user should operate their account or limit their freedom. Both of those markets limit users to Monero only which is better but harder to purchase. They also have strict PGP rules making account creation a slow process.
Tor-exclusive access with full PGP encryption, auto-deleting logs, and no IP leaks or trackers. Your anonymity is our priority.
Escrow protection, multisig & Monero (XMR) support, strict vendor vetting, and user-friendly interface for smooth transactions.
5 years and counting with no exit scams or sudden shutdowns. Nearly a million active buyers and sellers with new listings daily.
Cannabis, psychedelics, opioids, research chemicals, and more with harm reduction policies.
Software, ebooks, accounts, and various digital services with auto-dispatch.
Financial tools, bank drops, compromised accounts, CVVs, and personal data.
Fake IDs, luxury goods, electronics, and other physical counterfeit items.
To utilize Abacus Market, follow these step-by-step instructions. For comprehensive security guidance, read the Darknet Bible.
Download and install the official Tor Browser from the Tor Project website. This is essential for accessing .onion sites like Abacus Market.
Always use the official Abacus Market onion link provided on this page or verified on Dread. Never trust links from search engines or unknown sources.
After entering the onion link in Tor Browser, you'll need to complete a CAPTCHA to prove you're human and prevent DDoS attacks.
Create a username, strong password, and 6-digit PIN. Enable PGP 2FA immediately for enhanced security.
Fund your wallet with Bitcoin (BTC) or Monero (XMR). Monero is recommended for enhanced privacy. Learn how to buy anonymously in the Darknet Bible.
Browse listings, make purchases using escrow protection, and confirm delivery before funds are released to the vendor.
Combine Tor with a VPN (preferably NordVPN's "Onion over Tor" servers) for an extra layer of protection.
Mandatory PGP two-factor authentication prevents unauthorized access to your account.
Always double-check you're on the official Abacus Market URL as phishers copy the design of legitimate sites.

Abacus Market is the longest-standing option (since 2021), with Archetyp Market and DrugHub Market being newer alternatives. Unlike these competitors that only accept Monero and enforce strict PGP policies, Abacus offers more flexibility with both Bitcoin and Monero payments while maintaining strong security.
The user interface is similar to classic markets like AlphaBay and Empire Market, making it familiar for veteran darknet users.
Vendor accounts require a $1,500 bond (non-refundable) or proof of established reputation on other markets for a free account. After applying, you'll need to undergo PGP verification before being approved to list products.
The market has an active presence on Dread Forum where users share experiences, updates, and security tips. Abacus also has a dedicated support team active on Dread.
Abacus Market was launched in late 2020 as a replacement for the shuttered AlphaBay Market and following the retirement of Dream Market. Originally named Alphabet Market, it rebranded in October 2021 to avoid confusion with AlphaBay.
Since 2024, Abacus Market has established itself as the #1 darknet marketplace, claiming the top spot after the exit scam of Alphabay Market and retirement of White House Market.
With nearly 1 million users, Abacus now leads the darknet market scene. Its user interface is similar to the now-defunct Empire market, featuring a clean, modern display while maintaining the functionality that made these classic markets popular.
Important: New darknet users are strongly advised to read the Darknet Buyer's Bible before visiting any marketplace. It provides essential safety tips, operational security advice, and guidance to navigate the darknet safely and responsibly.
