Abacus

Following the closure of several darknet marketplaces, Abacus Market, originally known as Alphabet, was established in 2020, positioning itself as a potential option for Alphabay refugees.

Abacus Marketplace is presented as a reliable platform that has experienced notable growth over the past year, emerging as a noteworthy player in the industry. The platform offers a diverse array of products, ranging from pharmaceuticals to digital goods, with a well-organized presentation of its offerings. In the darknet commerce space, Abacus Marketplace stands out for hosting a comprehensive collection:

Drugs & Chemicals

Counterfeit Items

Digital Products

Fraud

Guides & Tutorial

Jewels & Gold

Services

Carded Items

Software & Malware

Security & Hosting

Within the 'security settings,' users can set a PGP key for added security by entering a pin and enabling two-factor authentication. The platform accommodates 20+ fiat currencies for user convenience, allowing them to easily understand the cost of their purchases. Market also supports Bitcoin and Monero as its accepted currencies. Users can switch their preferred currency in the settings if needed.

While Abacus Market faced initial skepticism and accusations of copying AlphaBay, it has grown into one of the major marketplaces. Its substantial size is attributed, in part, to the frequent closure of prominent forums like White House and ToRReZ.
