Okay it seems like people are wanting Agora to exit scam at this point. This is how I think things would change if that happened.

If Agora would exit scam in the near future, rather than say next year, then escrow as we know it will be eliminated. While many hail this as a good thing, others know that the current dnm infrastructure isn't capable of handling multi-sig escrow. From buyers to vendors to the market admins, there isn't comprehensive understanding of that type of system.

What I predict, and yes it's just a prediction, is that about 1/3 of vendors will leave the game due to insurmountable losses. This includes some OG vendors, as I suspect many will see that as the final straw and just retire. The remaining 2/3 of vendors will be stuck in the position of forcing FE to avoid another escrow theft, which will lead to scams to make back losses. Then the future of markets will be placed into the (usually) incompetent hands of the new admins for he first exclusively multisig site.

TL;DR Agora scamming would cause anarchy/mayhem like you've never seen on the darknet

In a month it would have been the perfect exit. Maybe they couldn't handle the pressure for another month. They'll get a healthy take either way.

One thing's for sure, they won't be around too much longer.
