Archetyp is arguably the #1/#2 market and is a drug only marketplace. I covered Archetyp in depth on Medium, click here to view that Medium article.
2. BidenCash — BidenCash can be found on the Clearnet and Dark Web. BidenCash sells CC+CVVs for users who want to use these stolen card numbers for buying things online or in store with a fraudulent card. BidenCash provides everything you need and not just a CC number; this includes names, addresses, phone numbers, etc. BidenCash is said to be one of the top markets for CC and CVVs after Joker’s Stash retired in February of 2021.
3. Brian’s Club — Brian’s Club like BidenCash is also one of the biggest markets for fraud. It is also one of the oldest markets and is said to have been founded sometime in 2014. It is a Clearnet and Dark Web site that is similar to BidenCash in that it sells CCs, CVV2, Dumps, Fullz and other fraudulent services such as SSN and DOB listings. This allows someone to do many malicious things, which can have an impact on someone’s life for an exceedingly long time.

5. Nemesis Market — Nemesis market is a darknet market on the Dark Web. You can visit the Clearnet URL to find updated mirrors in case the main .onion goes down.

Miscellaneous Resources:
- The Drug User’s Bible Extended Edition — While this can be found on the Dark Web, it can also be found on the Clearnet by buying it off Amazon or other retail websites. The Drug User’s Bible details drug safety information covering different substance classes. It was written by Dominic Milton Trott and goes over Harm Reduction, Risk Mitigation, Personal Safety and more. It contains 641 pages of valuable information, especially if you are a drug user, are thinking about doing drugs or just want to learn about drugs. Do not knock this resource, you will be surprised once you start reading it!
2. The Darknet Market Bible — The DNM Bible provides information on how to remain safe when buying on the dark web. It can be found on the Dark Web and Clearnet. However, an updated version is only found on the Dark Web. You should 100% be reading and following this if you plan to make any type of purchase on any darknet market.
Resources That are Currently Offline, but are Very Useful When They Come Back:
- Recon — Recon is owned by the Dread admin and is a Dark Web only site. Recon is the largest Darknet Market vendor archive service and multi marketplace search engine, providing up to date content from the majority of established markets all in one place. The platform allows you to cross reference vendor details, listings, statistics, and marketplace addresses. This is all accomplished through years of data archiving from past marketplaces and the integration of an API system for active markets to easily share their public vendor and listing data to us on a regular basis. Recon has been down for quite a long time and the Dread admin just doesn’t have the development time to put into two major resources.
- Kilos — Kilos is a Dark Web only search engine, established in November 2019. Kilos possibly evolved from the well-known dark web search engine “Grams,” which ceased operations in 2017. Both Grams and Kilos are dark web search engines that clearly imitate the well-known design and functionalities of the Google search engine. In a clever play on words, both follow a naming convention inspired by units of measure. Kilos also has been down for an extended period of time.
