Documentation & FAQ

Nexus Market is a decentralized darknet marketplace established to facilitate anonymous commerce. The platform utilizes advanced mitigation against DDoS attacks and operates on a redundant onion service architecture. It serves as a neutral hub for the exchange of digital and physical goods using Bitcoin (BTC), Monero (XMR), and Litecoin (LTC).

Cryptographic verification is the only method to ensure you are not on a clone site. Always verify the PGP signature of the login page against the official Nexus Market public key.

For maximum operational security (OpSec), the Tor Browser security slider should be set to "Safest". Nexus Market is designed to function without client-side scripts to prevent deanonymization attacks and browser exploits. This info portal uses minimal JS for UI enhancement, but the market itself is pure HTML/CSS.

• Walletless Pay (Recommended): An invoice is generated for a specific order. You send the exact amount from your personal wallet directly to this address. Funds move to escrow immediately, minimizing custodial risk.
• Market Wallet: You deposit funds into your on-site account balance. This allows for faster checkout on small items but involves keeping funds in the market's custody.

Monero (XMR) is the gold standard for darknet transactions. Its ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT hide the sender, receiver, and amount. Bitcoin (BTC) is supported but is a public ledger; use CoinJoins if BTC is necessary. Litecoin (LTC) offers faster confirmations but lacks native privacy.

To stimulate market growth and competition, Nexus Market has waived the traditional vendor bond for established sellers. Vendors with verifiable feedback from other recognized hubs (e.g., Archetyp, Dread) can apply for a waiver. New vendors without history may still be subject to a refundable bond or stricter escrow limits.

Funds are held in multisig escrow upon order placement.

1. Escrow: Vendor ships goods. Buyer inspects goods. Buyer releases funds.
2. Auto-Finalize (AF): If the buyer does not respond within the timer (default 14 days), funds release to the vendor automatically.
3. Dispute: If goods are not received, the buyer extends escrow or opens a dispute for moderator intervention.

Nexus Market strictly forbids the sale of: Fentanyl/Carfentanil and analogues, Child Exploitation Material (CSAM), Weapons/Explosives, Poisons, Murder-for-Hire services, and Data/Doxing of innocent individuals. Violations result in immediate account termination and blacklisting.

Account recovery is only possible via the Mnemonic Seed provided during registration. If you have lost this seed, the account is cryptographically inaccessible. Support cannot reset passwords or disable 2FA without the seed proof. This is a security feature, not a bug.
