About Abacus Market

Launched in late 2021, Abacus Market has established itself as the most enduring and trusted darknet marketplace. Originally named Alphabet Market, it rebranded to avoid confusion with the relaunched AlphaBay.

While other markets like Dream Market, White House Market, and Empire Market have come and gone, Abacus has maintained continuous operation through its commitment to security, reliability, and user privacy.

Today, Abacus Market boasts:

45,000+
Listings
1,500+
Verified Vendors
1M+

Years Operational

Unlike competitors like Archetyp Market and DrugHub Market that enforce strict Monero-only policies, Abacus offers flexibility with both Bitcoin (BTC) and Monero (XMR) payments, making it more accessible to newcomers while maintaining strong privacy options.
