DrugHub Market represents the next iteration of darknet infrastructure, launched in August 2023 by a collective of former White House Market administrators and privacy activists. In an ecosystem frequently destabilized by exit scams and seizures, DrugHub Market was engineered from the ground up to be a fortress of operational security, prioritizing user anonymity over ease of access.
Universal Security Model
The platform enforces a "Universal Security Model" where advanced cryptographic protections are mandatory. The complete passwordless authentication system relies entirely on PGP challenge-response protocols. This means no passwords exist on our servers to be hashed, salted, or stolen—eliminating the vector for credential stuffing attacks entirely.
Decentralized Mirroring
DrugHub innovates with a decentralized ingress structure. Upon successful registration, each user is assigned a unique, private .onion access point generated via our Link Directory Nodes (LDNs). This granular traffic distribution renders mass DDoS attacks ineffective and provides users with a verifiable, private gateway that phishers cannot replicate.
Monero-Exclusive Economy
Recognizing the permanent public ledger of Bitcoin as a fundamental privacy risk, DrugHub Market operates as a strict Monero-only (XMR) platform. We leverage Ring Confidential Transactions (RingCT), stealth addresses, and bulletproofs to ensure financial opacity. Our walletless payment system minimizes the duration funds remain in centralized escrow, further reducing risk exposure for both vendors and buyers.
