DreamMarket down for past 30mins --- rumors of it shutting down for good circulating. Anyone got the scoop on whats goin on?

So I just went to check out DreamMarket and it's down, checked DNstats n it said its been about 30mins... that's not abnormal, ofc. But I decided to google it and found that recently there's been a whole bunch of shit going on after they busted Hansa and some vendors going to DreamMarket from Hansa w/o changing their info and the po-po usin it to take over their acc's and nab buyers n shit.. all sorts of stuff on google about it.

anyway, is DreamMarket safe/reliable right now or best to avoid, and if so whats the alternative currently?

Last time I fucked myself with a market that was closing was Agora. Same day it closed, before I even logged onto Agora, I sent myself 1btc (worth $280) at the time, and then I log onto Agora and saw "DONT SEND BTC IT VVILL BE LOST! ETC ETC" ...and boom. Crazy to think that 1btc I sent, is now potentially lost in the ether, or something, and its now worth 4600+... GG

Side question I suppose. Is there any conceivable way that I Could get that 1btc I sent to Agora ages ago back somehow?

If I ran Dream... I'd be abandoning it and opening a new fresh secure site also.

I'd be notifying people my intention tho.

No one knows. Sites go down all the time and they can't say why. Agora went down all the time and was reliable until the end.

Agora had warnings for like a week that they would be shutting down for a long time and not to deposit, so I'm puzzled how you got screwed over there.

apparently their IP just leaked.

if you dont like dream (check superlist warnings for example)

try any alternative, but take care before choosing for trade route, as it was hacked twice in a week, they also now gonna shut down their forum in a few days/hours and get something new. no data will be saved / imported to the new forum. so make your own decision.
