Essential Guides
Knowledge is security. Learn how to stay safe.
Tor Browser Guide
The Tor Browser is your gateway to the darknet. It provides anonymity by routing your connection through multiple servers.
Getting Started:
- Download Tor Browser from the official website (torproject.org)
- Install and launch the browser
- Configure security settings to "Safest" for maximum protection
- Never maximize the browser window (maintains fingerprinting protection)
- Disable JavaScript for additional security
Best Practices:
- Keep Tor Browser updated at all times
- Never install additional plugins or extensions
- Use bridges if Tor is blocked in your region
- Never use Tor over VPN unless you fully understand the implications
- Close all sessions when finished and clear your history
Monero Guide
Monero (XMR) is a privacy-focused cryptocurrency that obscures sender, recipient, and amount information, making it ideal for darknet transactions.
Why Monero:
- Ring signatures hide the sender's identity
- Stealth addresses ensure recipient privacy
- RingCT conceals transaction amounts
- Bulletproofs provide efficient, private transactions
- Dandelion++ protocol obscures transaction origin
Getting Started:
- Download an official Monero wallet (getmonero.org)
- Create a new wallet and securely store your seed phrase
- Purchase XMR from a reputable exchange
- Transfer XMR to your personal wallet before sending to markets
- Always use subaddresses for receiving funds
OPSEC Guide
Operational Security (OPSEC) is a process that identifies critical information to determine if actions can be observed by adversaries.
Core Principles:
- Compartmentalization: Separate identities and activities
- Need-to-know basis: Share information only when necessary
- Minimize footprint: Leave as little trace as possible
- Assume compromise: Plan as if security has been breached
- Defense in depth: Use multiple security layers
Practical Steps:
- Use TAILS or Whonix for enhanced anonymity
- Never use personal information or reuse usernames
- Disable JavaScript when possible
- Use PGP for all sensitive communications
- Never access personal accounts while on Tor
- Use secure passwords and 2FA everywhere

Frequently Asked Questions
Get answers to common questions about Nexus Market.
How do I ensure I'm using an official Nexus link?
Always verify links using our PGP signature. Official links are posted on our verified channels and forums. Never use links from unverified sources, search engines, or random forums. Use the links provided in the Mirrors section of this site.
Why does Nexus only accept Monero?
Monero provides superior privacy protections compared to other cryptocurrencies. Its ring signatures, stealth addresses, and RingCT technology ensure that transactions cannot be traced, providing maximum security for our users.
How does the escrow system work?
Our multi-signature escrow holds funds until both buyer and seller confirm the transaction is complete. If disputes arise, our moderators review evidence from both parties and make a fair resolution. This protects both buyers and sellers from fraud.
What should I do if a vendor isn't responding?
If a vendor hasn't responded within 72 hours, you can open a support ticket. Our team will attempt to contact the vendor. If they remain unresponsive, we'll review the situation and may issue a refund if appropriate.
How can I become a vendor?
Vendor applications require a security deposit, proof of product quality, and a comprehensive security review. See our Vendor Onboarding guide for detailed requirements and application process.
Is it safe to provide my address for physical deliveries?
For maximum security, we recommend using alternative delivery methods such as PO boxes or other addresses not directly linked to your identity. All address information is encrypted with PGP and only visible to the vendor.
What happens if the market goes down?
Nexus maintains multiple mirror sites to ensure continuous access. In the unlikely event of extended downtime, we have contingency plans to restore service and protect user funds. Always keep your PGP keys and account information secure.
How do I report suspicious activity?
If you encounter suspicious vendors, listings, or users, report them immediately through our secure reporting system. Our security team investigates all reports and takes appropriate action to maintain marketplace integrity.
