Complete Bitcoin and Darknet resource
Slowly, Bitcoin is regaining its ground on the physical currencies all over the world. BTC is the future of currency for a couples reasons, mainly its basic premise and algorithm take care of that. First I’ll give you all the required information to cure said ignorance and put you on the right path to BTC promised land.
Keep in mind, this currency has a huge impact all over the world, it is the main gate between physical and crypto currencies. It’s the #TAKEOVER
The darknet markets are also rapidly growing right now, as the main way to spend BTC for whatever use. Of course not just illegal, there’s tons of things you can do with BTC on the darknet markets. For the sake of this post I’ll show you how to get an ounce of kush off the web and have it in front of you within 1 week from having the money in front of you.
Bitcoin currency
Has been around for a while, algorithm created by genies. This system is self-sufficient and isn’t run by anyone, just a piece of code. I won’t get into too much detail on how they are made from scratch, simply that people use graphic cards and the Internet to create bits of the currency together; this is called mining.
The value of 1BTC once was of 1100 USD+ before China stopped its banks from trading in BTC, which caused a crash with synchronized bullshit from certain markets online. Since then, the coin has been recovering its worth and is slowly ramping up to something amazing. Look at this nice curve:

Cryptocurrency
A cryptocurrency, Bitcoin being the first decentralized one (standalone formula) is an anonymous way to transfer funds from one wallet to another. This is done online mostly, but soon cards holding BTC wallets and turning them into USD at terminals or shops accepting BTC payment (see: buy a Tesla with Bitcoins).
The philosophy also extends further. Since the digital world is becoming increasingly bigger by the moment, so do its currencies. Eventually, as services online become better and better, they start spreading really fast and BTC (or other currency) becomes increasingly used, which then makes its value jump. It is simply made to take over normal currency very fast. The earlier you stack or start producing Bitcoins (research: Bitcoin mining), the richer you are in the future — literally from changing currencies.
It is the future.
Eventually, once people have all their nutrition, clothing, shelter, water, drugs, cryptocurrency will be left for all other purposes and everything will be done online with Bitcoin or another risen devise.
Acquiring Bitcoin
*If you don’t feel like going through the process of getting Bitcoins, I offer you the service for a very small rate. Come see me in person and I’ll show you how so you can repeat the process next time! Otherwise, send me money on Paypal or another payment method and I’ll send BTC to you.
Getting some Bitcoin can be done from various avenues, so I’ll show you what I’ve learned from fiddling around with it the past years.
First, you need some type of cash, somehow. This can have all forms, prepaid credit/debit, debit, credit, paypal, cash, codes, external wallet money (like pokerstars).
Second, make sure you have a BTC wallet, these are simply addresses you can use to hold, send and receive coins. These are available on most BTC trading websites and you can have your own downloaded wallet if you choose to install it as software (I recommend web wallets, they are much faster to setup and super disposable, check out:
- software wallet Electrum
- online wallet Bitcoinwallet
Your address is the important part, it is the one you give to people for them to transfer funds to your wallet. An address has a public key (the one you give to people so they can transfer you funds) and a private key, one you keep for yourself so you can spend your BTC. You can also spend coins directly from your wallet in the case of online wallets. Make sure you understand that. They don’t send it to an account on a website, it is really just another wallet in a huge cyberspace of information. It is recommended that you change your wallet once in a while if your partake in not-so-legal activities.
Third, visit any site you wish that offers to sell Bitcoins to you. For user to user trades, localbitcoins is the best and most widespread platform. On there you can find all types of payment methods, I made a quick list yesterday for this purpose: Paypal, Wire transfer, Direct deposit, Interac e-Transfer, Cash in person, Mailed cash, Cheque, Payoneer, Western Union, Moneygram, Paysafe, OKPay, etc. You can sign up, open a trade and follow instructions for easy Bitcoins.
Otherwise, check out other websites like QuickBT (Interac), Coinbase (Banking) or simply google for further options. You should be fine with the first 4 options though, including the service I’m offering you. Buy my BTC, they’re available for sale in cash, Vanilla prepaid card, Paypal and direct deposit.
Using Bitcoin
Bitcoin can be used in a wide range of ways, let’s first check out the newer, more unique ways to spend your new currency!
Check out Coinmap to see where merchants near you are accepting Bitcoin in person or to find ATM machines. You can turn your cash to BTC at any point with a Bitcoin ATM, here’s how it works:
There is a general buy process at the Bitcoin ATM:
- Verification step (optional and may vary substantially depending on the machine type)
- Provide Bitcoin address for deposit (optionally can be generated and printed/emailed in some ATMs)
- Put cash into the ATM
- Confirm operation (bitcoins sent to the Bitcoin address)
This process may vary from ATM to ATM, and this is what we describe for every of the mentioned Bitcoin ATM types. It is important to understand that even when the machine may have compliance procedures supported, they are not necessarily activated, as it depends on the operator of the machine.

Soon enough most people will be smart enough to accept Bitcoin in any type of trade, not just online. Say I’m selling you my old ps3 for example, I much rather have 70$ in Bitcoins than 80$ cash for some reason. This makes it super easy for you to send me the money too, you don’t even have to move at most points.
Digital/online trading is super quick with Bitcoin. Learn to be a tradesman with this currency it will be super useful throughout your life, and you feel that too 😉
Of course, the most widespread use for coins online ARE the darknetmarkets. For more information please make sure to make a quick google search to understand basic functionalities. Sike, that’s my job.
Here we go!
Darknet Markets
Originally, SilkRoad was one of the best markets. It prevailed for such a long period until a bunch of issues started arising, the creator’s karma getting merked then everything being taken down by law enforcement. The guy was since then arrested. From that point, markets became a bit more volatile and we started seeing new practices in the communities.
Basics
Understanding anonymous trading is important in order to remain secure on the markets. I’ll do a quick overview of some standards people have generally speaking.
The trade can be processed in a few ways: escrow, FE, multi-signature transfer.
- Escrow is the normal way to process for most transactions with lower rep buyers/sellers. The market (if centralized) will hold the BTC until the buyer receives product or decides to accept letting the seller receive the Bitcoin. This is a good option for your one-time or first-time trade with a vendor.
- FE, or Finalize Early, is the way to use when you’re dealing with a trusted seller. This releases the funds earlier for the seller. Sellers love this because Bitcoin value is sometimes extremely volatile and they can suddenly lose profits if the order stays in escrow for too long.
- Multi-signature is the way of the future. It enables multiple public keys to be part of the same trade. The Bitcoins are held in a trade-specific multisig wallet on a website like Coinbin. The funds are attached to 3 different private keys, each of them having access to the funds. The trade and a redeem code are created, which has to be signed by 2 of 3 addresses to release the coins. The 3 addresses are typically: the market, the buyer and the seller. This makes disputes easy for markets to resolve too!
The other key point before you can begin is Tor Browser. Head over here to read more on it or download it. It is a moded version of Firefox that allows you to access the so called deep web. Once downloaded and installed, head over to reddit.com/r/darknetmarkets and click superlist for a list of markets or check out a buddy’s page to buy kush!
Here’s the .onion link, which can only be used in the Tor Browser network.: http://tdetox4obdz62tri.onion/listing/c924cdca-cc81-4962-b43b-42b7981f2ae0/
You won’t be able to open it in a normal browser.
Ordering the Kush
Simple stuff, follow the trail I lead you to and you will be able to become a DNM expert. For this, you only now need an address. It can be risky to expose your address freely on the DNM’s, so I’ll link you to this guide from another guy if you want to learn about PGP encryption; it’s a way to send messages to people without them being readable by anyone but the receiver. Some markets destroy messages after a certain period, so sending those messages are no problem.
Simply gather funds, send them to your BTC address on your chosen marketplace, start an order with the vendor (escrow or multisig recommended) and wait for the kush to arrive!
Good luck and have fun! I gotta catch a train �
