I'd probably just stop ordering drugs through the mail for a bit until a suitable replacement inevitably popped up.

Ya I wonder what the status is of BMR these days.  A lot of people have a lot of things riding on the reliability of SR (especially vendors and RL re-sellers) so hopefully there are already some other teams working on competing websites at the moment.  As a web developer myself I've considered jumping in on this sort of thing but unfortunately I know very little about TOR and web-security, in particular.

what about if SR had a another site which is exclusive to trusted buyers only recommended by vendors and doesn't have direct public access.

is that a good idea?

Starting to build up a 'Fear and Loathing' suitcase just in case the worst happens... can't go back to scoring LSD on the streets...

That said, there are a few solo shops on the DarkWeb. Some are undoubtedly scams, but I'm led to believe some are legit, so might try one or two...

go to do what? buy? sell? SR is a great platform but if tor was no more then we could still operate on a clearnet forum using public wifi. The real revolution here wasnt tor, it was bitcoin. The cops always follow the money, but with bitcoin they cant so we win no matter if we are using reddit, craigslist, or a sign posted on the side of the road.

It's not owned by Silk Road but there is a secret drug marketplace very similar to that called Renaissance. It's exact destination is hidden and only given to trusted people. Each member must be approved prior to being let on the site.

Yeah dude bitcoins r like so anonymous and untracable.

Also no drug forums will exist on the clearnet...That's extremely evident. If the IP is visible it can be shut down with absolute ease. It will always be behind an anonymity network.

there is something called a "crypto currency trail" that can be traced by LE from my understanding... so... again the more precautions the better.

That's a great idea. DPR could say as of right now everyone who has an account already and is in good standing could join.

I also agree, serious buyers and sellers need some sort of back-up.......

There are a lot of drug marketplaces on the clearnet and there has been for two decades.  They are just not open to the public.

People are creative.

If Silk Road went down... hell, if TOR went down... an alternative method would fill the gap eventually.

This is a silly discussion.

The fact that Silk Road sails today means that it will everyday!
Maybe in another place, maybe in a different name but it can't be taken down.

If SR was taken down by some third-party entity, I'm thinking prison or retirement.

+1, perfect.
Though, all this talk of secretive places is making me curious.
