About Darknet Guide
What this codex is, what it covers, and what it is not.
Darknet Guide is an independent informational reference published at darknet-guide.com. It catalogues active darknet markets accessible via the Tor network, publishes verified onion addresses, and provides reading material on Tor access and operational security. It is not a marketplace, not a vendor directory, and not affiliated with any of the markets it covers.
This dark net guide was created because reliable, editorially disciplined reference information on darknet markets is scarce. Forum posts disappear, paste sites expire, and search results are frequently populated by phishing mirrors. This codex aims to be a stable, verifiable reference that readers can return to.

01Mission and Scope
The scope of this darknet guide is strictly informational. The codex documents what markets exist, what their onion addresses are, and how they operate at a structural level. It does not promote drug use, facilitate transactions, or assist with illegal activity. The same information is available across hundreds of forum threads; this site organises it in a stable, readable format.
The seven markets currently catalogued were selected on the basis of activity levels, community presence, and available verified information. The list will change as markets open and close. When a market exits or its verified mirrors stop responding for an extended period, its entry is updated or removed.
02Editorial Approach
Each market entry in this dark net guide follows the same structure: a brief factual overview, verified onion addresses, a structural summary covering escrow and payment options, and a short FAQ. The language is measured and descriptive rather than promotional. The codex does not recommend markets, compare vendor selection, or advise on purchasing decisions.
Addresses listed here are verified against community sources at time of publication. Onion address rotation is common in this environment — if an address is no longer responding, check for updated information in established community forums before concluding that a market has closed.
This dark net guide maintains editorial independence from all markets it covers. No market has paid for inclusion, no market has editorial control over its entry, and no affiliate relationship exists between this codex and any listed platform.
03Scope and Limits
This codex covers access, structure, and security reading. It does not cover vendor selection, product harm reduction, customs and postal interception, or legal defence. Readers with questions in those areas should consult appropriate specialist resources.
The darknet guide is published as a static archive. There is no user registration, no comment system, and no mechanism for submitting reports or corrections via the site. The archive is updated manually as information changes.
This site is an independent informational reference. It is not affiliated with, operated by, or endorsed by any darknet market.
