About BlackOps
DNM Watch dates BlackOps to September 2024. TorWiki’s table also uses 2024. Both describe worldwide shipping and a human review step before new vendors can list. That screening story is consistent across directory write-ups; we have not audited their queue.
Our tags record Monero only. Public pages now say Bitcoin was added later. DNM Watch dates that add to April 2025; TorWiki dates it to April 2026. Until BTC is in this file, the profile follows the catalog: XMR, 2FA, PGP, escrow. We do not invent a coin tag from a directory update, especially when those pages disagree on the year.
DNM Watch’s angle is vendor economics: low fees, storefront tooling, and bond models. TorWiki’s angle is manual screening and a later dual-coin shift. We record both as reported color. Third-party listing estimates are in the low thousands (TorWiki’s table says 2,000+). We store no listing count here.
Onion addresses on this card are the strings we store. A curated-vendor story is not a verified extra mirror.
Reported history
- September 2024
- DNM Watch dates the launch here and says the shop started Monero-only.
- 2025
- TorWiki describes a share of post-Archetyp / post-Abacus vendor migration. DNM Watch separately dates a Bitcoin option to April 2025. TorWiki dates the same coin add to April 2026. We treat the year as disputed.
- 2026
- Both directories still list the name as active. Our coin tags have not changed.
Reported public features
- Coins in our file: Monero only, plus 2FA, PGP, and escrow.
- TorWiki and DNM Watch both describe manual vendor screening rather than instant open registration.
- TorWiki reports worldwide shipping and canary-signed admin notes on Dread.
- DNM Watch reports vendor-facing extras (fees, bonds, storefront tools). Those are not catalog tags.
- Directories now mention Bitcoin alongside Monero. That coin is not in our tag list.
What this page does not claim
- We do not add a BTC tag while public pages disagree on when Bitcoin appeared.
- No listing count is stored here.
- The Official onion on this card is the string we store. Treat any other mirror as untrusted until you check a PGP canary.
- Manual screening is a reported process, not an in-house audit of vendor quality.

How TorBible records BlackOps
Status, tags, and listing counts come from our catalog file. Editorial notes below the card come from open public reporting and are worded as reported when we have not verified them in-house. Treat every mirror you find elsewhere as untrusted until you check a PGP canary and a second independent source. See phishing detection and OPSEC fundamentals.
