Bruce Campbell/GrooveyBruce is a hilarious character. He got banned from SR1 for joking about sending some kid a piece of dog shit with a xanax bar in it.

DPR, Plural of Mongoose, Verto + Kimble, Carl Force + Shaun Bridges, nachash, Assange, etc etc. Not sure why everyone is limiting themselves to users here. It says "darknet celebs", not "/r/darknetmarkets 'celebs'".

Hal Finney. The frozen pop of both PGP and bitcoin. AKA "satoshi".

People are just beginning to notice that satoshi has been very quiet for a year:-

http://www.wired.com/2014/08/hal-finney/

You should all raise a glass to him, because he was the first hero of the darknet. Its well known that he developed PGP encryption, bitcoin's encryption, and received the first bitcoins ever mined. Its less well known that he also sent them.

Ross was the second hero of the darknet, and it's first celebrity. he had the brilliance to combine 4 existing things into "the Silk Road Model":-

  1. TOR browser

  2. Bitcoin

  3. Escrow

  4. Vendor and Customer feedback

My third hero of the darknet is "Johnny Tightlips" - the owner of Agora marketplace. I hope he never becomes a celebrity, because we don't ever want to know who he is. But there is certainly some kind of fucking hero behind the scenes.

Budster, TAF, etc. Tiny bullshit market where the butthurt still continues into this day.

The numerous mxe vendors who went tard off their supply, exit scammed, and repeated. The conspiracy theories surrounding them being the same guy.

Tony76 for teaching us about exit scams. nod and XanaxGod for showing that DNM opsec is useless if you operate with flagrant street opsec disregard.

backopy and TMP for showing that you don't have to be a shit admin.

Not me, but the review templates I created, stickied on the sidebar, sure were a lot more popular than I imagined they'd be. They kinda have a celeb status if you stretch the definition of "celebrity".
