The fall of BitBazaar and the rise of Neptune: new dark web marketplaces research
The Photon Research Team of Digital Shadows has published new research highlighting a popular dark web marketplace called BitBazaar that got called out for attempted manipulation of subscriber numbers on the popular dark web platform, Dread.
"Roll on one month and with falling user levels, poor staff behavior, and allegations of withdrawal issues; everything points to an exit scam. Meanwhile, a new marketplace called “Neptune Market” has been waiting in the wings, preparing to fill the void," writes the Photon Research Team.
