Moronic Monday - it's your weekly stupid questions thread!

Hey /r/DarkNetMarkets , it is time for Moronic Monday!

Post your question - stupid or otherwise - here to get an answer. Anyone can post a question and the community as a whole is invited and encouraged to provide an answer. Many questions get submitted late each week that don't get a lot of action, so if your question didn't get answered before, feel free to post it again.

If you are a noob, check out our comprehensive FAQ; it is essentially a guide for buying from a DarkNet Market. You may also find it helpful to take a look at our informative community posts, which are full of valuable information and tips.

We do ask that you refrain from abusing noobs in this thread. Remember that everyone had to start somewhere.

P.S. Check out /r/DarkNetMarketsNoobs, where it is Moronic Monday everyday!

Just a fun fact, reading through Ross' journal it looks like the original SR at one point ran on CodeIgniter. Evo runs on CodeIgniter, vicariously, through Bitwasp. Why do all these criminal devs choose a half-dead PHP framework? When will someone make the leap to Rails? Or has someone already...!?!?

What attributes must a yield of weed have to become A, A++ or A+++? What scientific processes have to be made to classify the weed and who does that for the vendors? Will there be some day, after some progress in the cultivation of cannabis, a A++++++++++++++++ strain which knocks you of your feet even if you only dare to smell it's odor?

Does somebody have a definitive answer to the process of having a drop burned by a postal service? Like is a drop burned for good? Does it 'slide' out of the system after a certain period? Is the name burned, the address, or both? Obviously different for every country, so let's get all multicultural in here.

And where's the bloke doing the weekly roundup? They were solid threads.

Ok so can anyone actually find something that actually OFICIALLY says that domestic packages ARE NOT xrayed? I mean a lot of the priority/express goes on planes so they have to check these a little closer? right? I would sure like to take what our friendly molly/mxe using USPS worker says but I can't find anything concrete either way anywhere. Just a bunch of people arguing both sides. I have spent so many hours on this topic.

One of my closest friends and roommate knows a guy who is a weed dealer. He said he would like, if possible, 2+lbs/week. We already sold him a quarter pound of Humbolt Farm's mid grade northern lights and he said he will pay $3,000/lb for it. I can buy it at $1,500/lb. I also have a guy who I buy bitcoins locally for cash. As far as the dealer knows, I don't exist. He thinks my roommate is getting it shipped to him from someone we personally know in Californa. Essentially, my involvement in everything goes as far as ordering and having my address on the package. Our apartment is completely clean with nothing illegal in it. In the event that the LE show up, we say nothing, exercise 5th amendment right. Then we just lose out on the money from that package. At that point we would tell our dealer that our address is compromised and then we would just have it shipped to him. So then we would be doing the same process but I would just have it shipped to him rather than us.

So the process goes: * Buy the bitcoins from the localbitcoin seller, have him send them to my Bitcoin Core wallet
* Transfer the bitcoins to Evo, buy the weed, the weed shows up at my address
* I never open the package, the dealer shows up within 2 hours to buy the weed off of us.
* Take the cash, buy more bitcoins and place another order.

Best case senario is we can do one order per week. What is your guys' recommendations to reduce risks, be as safe as possible. And also, how much do you think I can order safely per week? Or would it be better to split up the orders in a more sporadic way? Does it matter? Maybe different weights?

Also, does anyone know if large weed orders follow the 13oz rule? Or if it is possible to get it all in one package?

Any input in greatly appreciated.

Why do some "top" vendors at evolution have their high reputation, although they are selling low quality dope? Had that twice (9THWONDER, STEFANDL): praised like the gods of quality dope and what was delivered was disappointing.

Not looking for drugs, looking for someone to take an online Calc ii course/homeworks. Where and how, without getting too badly fisted?

Why do vendors pull their listings and stop vending when bitcoin suddenly drops? Shouldn't they be vending like crazy when that happens? If the price of bitcoins falls to, say, $100/btc, then people have to use a lot more bitcoins to make their purchase. The price of bitcoin will certainly recover over the next few weeks like it always does, making the vendor a tidy extra profit. You'd think vendors would pull their listings when BTC skyrockets, rather than when it falls.

Will 5g of bud fit in an envelope? Or will it be sent in a box?


[2 Points] shortbitcoin:

Watching the Ulbricht trial unfold, I'm starting to wonder about the anonymity of these sorts of purchases.

Suppose that my seller one day gets busted, and let's face it, that's a likely thing to happen. The cops aren't as stupid as they used to be about bitcoin. Won't they be able to trace where his bitcoins came from? Won't that create a digital paper trail that leads right back to the buyer?

If I bought an nhl gamecenter account on EVO (or any type of account for that matter), is it safe to use on clearnet?

Also, Is there any way to transfer a market purchased VPN from tails to my hdd, or will that compromise opsec?


[2 Points] alfabi:

How long can a buyer be prosocuted from the time deal happen on sr1? Statue of limitation . Is that right term?


[2 Points] ShulginsCat:

Can Ross and the SR team technically be tried in more than one country? If SR provided a platform to commit crimes all over the world, why is he only charged in the US? Why is SSBD extradited rather than being under trial in aus?

Anyone still having problems with Evo withdrawals? I sent a tiny amount of coins to Electrum wallet just to test a transaction and it's taking a while, nothing to worry about but I'm just wondering

What bitcoin exchange should I be using... Is it standard to have to upload verification documents, are bitcoins still anoymous at this point.

I also think I have a grasp on PGP, at least in concept. Where can I find the program to run it?

How to convert BTC to LTC back to BTC? (In lieu of tumbling)


[1 Points] jcpepper96:

Are vendors usually strict about customer requirements? I was planning on making my 1st DNM purchase from blueviking but noticed their buyer requirements include at least one successful prior transaction.

I just deposited money to my a market and when I went to refresh the market was down (checked dnstats). Is my money gone, or will I have to play the waiting game?


[1 Points] darknetnub:

I just opened up a private mailing address at a UPS store. I went with the smallest box possible and ordered 10 g of uncut moon rock. I regret not purchasing a larger box. If my package comes in, doesn't fit inside of the P.O. box, and the UPS store puts my package in storage, will I have to sign for my package when I pick it up? This is my first time ordering something from a DNM and I'm paranoid. Should I sign for it anyway? What is the likelihood there would be a controlled delivery?


[1 Points] gelfing:

its been a long time since i bought, what is the url for helix light? is it easier to use than bitfog and should i access it through tor? can mods update the faq re helix? maybe im looking in the wrong place but i cant seem to find much info. reddit search just gives me a bunch of reviews.

How would I go about purchasing anything on this subreddit. I.e weed or LSD? (Stumbled upon this today and I cant say I'm not interested)

Is it true that sending/receiving bitcoins on the clearnet is safer than doing so through Tor?

What are all the stages for a vendor once a user has confirmed a purchase?

By this I mean: Open, Pending Open, Shipped

What else is there or is that it?


[1 Points] None:

I'm not a vendor, but I've always wondered how do they cash out large amounts of btc. And I'm assuming they do it fast because some vendors offer incentives for finalising early


[1 Points] christondrugs:

Recommended socks5 proxy service? One that uses btc preferably....

I've been using premsocks since you can pay with btc but I've had more frustrations with their proxies than successes. And they require you to purchase these "plans" which limit both the amount of daily proxies you have access to as well as how many days you can use their service. Also you can only purchase a specific plan once otherwise you have to make a new acc.

I already know about vip72, but I've read that their proxies are most likely blacklisted.

Thanks!

Tails > VM = Bad Idea ?

So I have been using Tails for over a year now. I have had it loaded on a micro usb and booting it from the pc start up. Last week i booted it up it says i needed an update but then told me it could not update {Told me to restart and try again but it did not work}. So I now have to download Tails again install it to a new usb. Before i do this i wanted to ask some things. I have been wondering as i only own one pc and it is my main source of entertainment so could I install tails on to a VM. So I could still run my videos in the back ground. I know you should never use Tor on windows but would a VM not kind of bypass that. Is Tails the best for this kind of work if not what would be better. I have heard about using a raspberry pie to make a Tor box any one heard of this any more info on it haha ? Thanks very much for reading this and i look foreword to reading any info.
